This month we have another amazing issue for you, featuring professional tips, reviews, and practical how-to guides. Here's a sneak peek of what's inside!
Autumn/Fall is one of the most exciting times of the year for landscape photographers. The incredible changes of colour are intoxicating and an endless source of inspiration. However, with everyone photographing the same subjects, how can we make sure our images stand out? With help from two expert landscape photography tutors, discover how to use creative exposure techniques and careful timing to shoot incredible scenic images with a unique edge. You'll discover how to push the boundaries of your landscape photography to make the most of those golden tones.
Meanwhile, our second feature is all about drama - an elusive element in many photos. Sometimes an image will just burst with energy, but you can't figure out what makes it so special. Well, we have the answers! With advice and insight from five professional photographers, working across the full spectrum of photo genres, we’ve put together a detailed guide to how you can introduce dramatic contrast, colour and light in any area of photography. Learn how to work with silhouettes, craft cinematic lighting on a budget in a home studio or on location, capture spectacular landscapes and work with extreme black-and-white contrast.
