Send us Fan MailIn this second podcast, I run through 7 more mistakes it's easy to make: 1. Shooting in Auto ModeShooting in Auto severely limits your creative options.2. Not checking settingsIt’s easy to forget to check settings in the heat of the moment. Stay on top of your settings, especially when conditions are changing quickly.3. HousekeepingKeep your camera equipment cleaned and properly stored. Mould in lenses will not help your photography.4. Rushing the shotTake the time to get your focus and exposure correct and be ready. Often things can happen very quickly, so it’s important to have everything properly set up.5. Lack of StorytellingA good photograph has a clear subject, and the background should provide some kind of context. Be a Visual Storyteller.6. Shooting in Low ResolutionAlways shoot in RAW and the maximum file size your camera can support. Social media doesn’t need it, but you’ll be grateful when you get that once-in-a-lifetime shot.7. Ignoring post-processingEthical post-processing is a fundamental part of digital photography.It's time for another podcast...
