Question 1 I put mine on here, but I have watched a you tube video in which the presenter said if your going to enter a competition do not put your work on line . Apparently if its on line the judge may have seen it and will not be moved when he or she sees it again. Question 2 I live on/ near...

I am a total novice at editing, also I feel my style of photography is leaning towards less editing and more trying to compose a better shot to begin with. Yes I crop and edit, exposure, brightness and a few other things. I also do most of my photographs in Black and white now. I have NX Studio...

It has helped, its a bit of fun for me as I want to enter the Black+White photography comps at some point in the near future. On here I just set my pics to 1600/1200 pixels as that is the same as the club I am in requires.. That is easy, and I have got used to it, might have made me a bit lazy...

I am working my way along the photographic road I have taken, starting to gain confidence and have some great moments of enjoyment. Shoot in manual mode all the time, just took the plunge a while ago and haven't really looked back to much. Don't really think about it too deeply. I always take a...
