Good afternoon, I'm thinking about using filters on my camera and I'd like your opinion on the subject. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ORIGINAL PHOTOS WITHOUT EDITING SonyAlpha7iii / lens: Sony FE 2.8 70-200 77mm In this type of...

I always took pride in being able to explain how film photography works but this just blew my mind. From a 1960s photo year book. It almost reads as poetry. From a 1960s Photo Year book!

Hello... So I've been wanting to experiment with this sort of strange balanced portrait where the subject is lit by flash (I have an elinchrom portable unit) yet the natural light in the background is still visible. I've seen a few photographers achieve this and I'm yet to try it for a project...

Hi everyone, I've been reading some articles and it appears to me that the perceived wisdom is that when dealing in product photography (with natural light only) one should choose a south-facing window - early morning being bluer light, before dusk a more golden light. But the idea is to...

Candlelight, flash & a touch of light painting

Clubhouse at Hatchlands Park NT. Liked the dappled light on the building.

Hi I am currently using a screw in filter for long exposures (10 stop filter). there is no light leek around the filter as the filter is screwed onto the lens. I will not be switching to square filters, and the first system I will be trying is the Cokin system. I just got the holder first to...

Hi All, Took these images of Honister pass and would like your opinions on them, in particular number 1. I am happy with them, but not at the same time. I would like recommendations for where you may consider improving the processing of these. Thanks. 1) DSC_2329-HDR by Thomas Green, on...

Hi, I'm looking for some recommendations for a lightweight tripod to take on long hikes, preferably one that when collapsed is small and can handle a Canon 5D Mark III + lens (biggest being Canon 70-200). I currently have the Manfrotto 055 (Aluminium) + Manfrotto 410 Junior Geared Head but...

Hey everyone, New here. looking for some advice and help, anyone used LED light rings before? I'm looking for something for group shots mainly and really like the look of the LED Light rings but i can't say I've ever used one before. is this worth buying, and any suggestions on a certain...

Went to the airshow on Friday, unfortunately it wasn't dark enough for long exposure on most planes, however I did like this shot of the fireworks. Could have cropped it, however I did like the sky to the left of the frame. Sharper version on flickr. Southport Fireworks by Thomas Green, on...

Just wondering if B&Q, Wicks or Homebase sell them? Looked online and couldn't find any. Any other place? Thanks

Simply love the grasses that surround our coastline ..also love the quality of the jpeg files on the Fujifilm cameras ... this was actually 1/15second handheld as well ...

Looking for ideas or recommendations for light stand weights. What do you use , buy or make for yourself ? I have seen some striped sand bags on Amazon but have seen no sample in real life, the bright stripe trip hazard colouring appeals. Looking for about 6, so not looking at expensive...

My Strobist gear (so all portable flash, mostly YN stuff) is all getting a bit tired, used (and a little broken); a friend has asked that I do some portraiture stuff and I've always wanted to use something (relatively) big, soft and overhead (with some nice ring-flash on-axis fill). However, my...

Any recommendations on a decent head torch? Budget is max £30. Cheers.

Hey guys I have a budget of £350. Im new to photography and am looking for a DSLR which will be able to take good low light images. I have looked at th Nikon D5200, what are your thoughts? Are there any better options?

I was lucky to get very dramatic clouds and light when going up the Great Orme in Llandudno. I stitched a panorama in Photoshop, introduced a colour cast which I think added for drama and surrealism. There is always a good shot waiting at that place to be taken.
