Film Photography: A Guide (and How to Get Started)

The post Film Photography: A Guide (and How to Get Started) appeared first on Digital Photography School. It was authored by Carl Spring. Film photography is gaining in popularity. At the start of the digital revolution, film was the realm of those who did not want to move to the new way of working (and those folks were usually harassed on forums and message boards). But these days, film photography has a much different reputation. While some photographers see film as the preserve of hipsters trying to look cool, for many, film is a more organic method of photography. It allows you to slow down, focus on getting the shot, and experience a wait before seeing the results. In this article,...film photography 2 rolls of Porta film and one of HP5

How To Email An Image From Lightroom

Hi, gang and happy Monday (stop groaning, I can hear it from here). Here’s a quick one from the vault, but very handy — how to email an image (or multiple images) from right inside of Lightroom: STEP ONE: Click on the photo(s) you want to email, then go to the File Menu and choose Email Photo (as shown here). STEP TWO: This brings up this intermediary window where you enter the email address of the person you want to send the image to, along with your subject. By default, it will choose your computer’s default Email application, but if you want to use a different one, you can choose it from the ‘From’ menu. At the bottom, you can choose...

Freaky Photo Fallacies Revisited

A while back, I wrote a Tip of the Week with the same title that appears above. “Installment 1” of Freaky Photo Fallacies received lots of great feedback, so below is installment 2. As with the first installment, I want to lighten things up a bit yet still provide information that ups your photo game. As a reminder, the idea came to mind when I heard someone mention an often-used statement: There are two sides to every story. This got me thinking. We are all hard-working photographers who care deeply about our craft. Unfortunately, what we go through to get the shot is often misconstrued by outsiders. I offer a look at what we do from both our perspective and an...Freaky Photo Fallacies

Photo Of The Day By David Shield

Photo By David Shield Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Sedona Mountain Sunset” by David Shield. Location: Arizona. “For a while now, I’ve been drawn to the challenge of photographing new or fresh landscape compositions,” explains Shield. “The more time I dedicate to this, the more I find the necessity to veer further off the beaten path.
