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!
Shoot your best Black and White
Don’t miss our 13-page guide to creative black-and-white photography – a classic method of stripping images back to the essentials. From p36, you’ll learn to think in monochrome and balance the contrast in any scene, for maximum impact. From composition to understanding the relationship between tones and the effects of scene colour on your monochrome results, by the time you finish this masterclass, you’ll be set to create timeless black-and-white drama like an expert.
Creative ways to use shutter speed
Digital cameras are extremely powerful pieces of kit and there’s an endless array of images we can capture with them. However, there is always a danger that we forget about the core image elements that people like to see in a photograph. Stripping things back to the basics is often a great way to reset your visual goals. As such, be sure to read our feature on using shutter speed in creative ways. It might seem like a simple camera setting but, if you’re looking to refresh your photo style, exposure duration can be a perfect place to start. Find this feature on p24 of the issue and delve into Jeremy Flint’s top tips for success.
Self Exposed
If you find yourself in an artistic rut, our Shoot Like a Pro feature can help! From p14 of the magazine, self-portrait expert Jake Kehar Gill takes us behind the scenes on one of his conceptual shoots to teach us how to create mesmerising shots without even having to leave our living rooms. Liven up your selfies and learn key portrait lighting skills for use with clients in the process.
Top-tier reviews
Then, in our reviews section, we take the brand-new Fujifilm X100VI for a spin to see if it can live up to the hype of its predecessor. We also take a look at DXO PureRAW 4 to find out how it can breathe new life into your older RAW files and bring them bang up to date. Don’t miss our Kit Leaderboard this month to discover if last month’s top camera has been knocked off the number 1 position and gain a pro snapshot of the photo market.
