Nature Photography How To

Winter is a great time to capture beautiful outdoor images, but snow-covered landscapes can be difficult to get right in the camera. Fortunately there’s a way to make images that look as good as they did in the viewfinder, with a little help from Photoshop.

Spring is long gone, and summer ended almost a month ago, but that doesn’t mean the time for capturing great macro images is over. There are many opportunities to pursue close-up photography year-round.

Have you ever marveled at spectacular images of the nighttime sky, but thought, “There’s no way I can do that”? If so, you’ll want to pay close attention to this tutorial, because with the proper approach astrophotography is not as difficult as it seems.

Yesterday we brought you an eye-opening tutorial from a professional wildlife photographer who insists that a camera's histogram may not be telling you the truth, and thereby compromising the quality of images you shoot. Unfortunately, there's another harmful camera untruth, as you'll see in today's video from the f/64 Academy YouTube channel.

Most accomplished photographers pay close attention to their camera's histogram when shooting in the field because this simple graphic can be extremely helpful for balancing all the tones throughout a scene. But one respected pro insists that in certain situations, "the histogram may be lying to you and I'll show you why."

Today's quick tutorial from instructor Mark Dumbleton begins with an important question: "Are you unknowingly sabotaging your chances of eliminating noise at extremely high ISO settings? Because there's a good chance that you are." If so, that's about to change once you watch the quick video below.

We love photographer Mark Smith’s wildlife videos not only because they capture nature in action with rich detail, but they also tell a story that’s highly educational. In the below clip, Smith uses the Nikon D850 and D500 DSLRs to record the life or hummingbirds feeding on nectar from thistle plants.
