The post 10 Tips for Beautiful Black and White Headshots appeared first on Digital Photography School. It was authored by John McIntire. Black and white has long been a popular way to capture headshots with impact and visual interest. The lack of color helps to emphasize the subject while discarding information that isn’t relevant.  And in this article, I’m going to share 10 black and white headshot tips to help you get the best results. Let’s get started. Headshots vs. portraits A headshot is always a portrait, but a portrait (including a closely cropped portrait) is not always a headshot. Remember, headshots (no matter the type) come with a specific goal. If you’re new to portrait photography, it might help to...

While 70-200mm lenses are generally the standard for telephoto zooms, if you do not need a wider aperture, a 70-300mm lens can offer you more reach on the telephoto end and is often far cheaper than a 70-200mm f/2.8 or f/4 lens. Such is the case with the Tamron 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3 Di III RXD, and this excellent video review takes a look at how the lens performs in the real world.

Milky Way Over Maine MountainsNikon Z 6 with NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.8 S lens @ f/1.8, ISO 6400. Star stack of 20 exposures at 4 seconds each for sharp stars and low noise. By and large, ultra wide angle focal lengths like 14mm (on full frame) are the normal choice for photographing the Milky Way over a landscape. But if you can find a composition that works well with 50mm or so (around 35mm on APS-C crop sensors), the results can be truly stunning with the immense amount of detail visible in the Galactic Core of our galaxy at that focal length. Plus the core will look absolutely huge against the landscape, giving a dramatic perspective. Milky Way Over Fishing BoatsNikon...

It's not the famous Moulton Barn in Jackson Hole and those definitely aren't the Tetons rising majestically in the background, yet this image of a barn in Idaho is perhaps more impressive.

Building on my post from last week, I’ve been exploring other ways that people using Lightroom Classic (LrC) can take advantage of the Super Resolution feature added to the latest Adobe Camera Raw (ACR). Yes, at some point it is expected to be added to LrC, but until then … we’ve got to use it where it exists now. Local Smart Previews Last week I showed how one could use Super Resolution on a smart preview stored in the cloud, but then I wondered, what about using the smart previews that are stored locally? This does assume that you have created the smart previews first. You can render smart previews as part of import (check the option in the File Handling...
