Don\u2019t expect their camera to do all the work.\u00a0<\/strong>This means saying goodbye to \u2018Auto\u2019 and bravely using other modes such as Aperture Priority or Manual.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
In this video Tony and Chelsea Northrup show you how to use the manual mode on your camera.<\/p>\n
<\/iframe><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Understand that pressing the shutter is only half of making a good photograph.<\/strong>\u00a0Modern cameras are no match for the human eye, and still have lots of limitations, especially in low light situations.\u00a0Post-processing has been done since the invention of photography (either in a traditional darkroom or on a computer).

If you only follow the work of people who are at the same level in photography as you are, you’re not going to see what your photos are missing.
