How to Photograph Jokulsarlon

August 8, 2015 By Spencer Cox 26 Comments

Castle

One of the most amazing landscapes in the world is Iceland’s Jokulsarlon lagoon — famous for its massive and beautiful icebergs. And if the lagoon isn’t enough, these glass-like icebergs routinely wash ashore on a nearby black-sand beach. This crazy combination is enough to attract photographers from across the globe. In...

Nikon F vs Canon EF – What’s the Difference?

August 4, 2015 By Nasim Mansurov 98 Comments

Canon 85mm f/1.2L II vs Nikon 85mm f/1.4G

Although discussing the topic of Nikon vs Canon can lead to unnecessarily long and emotional debates between photographers and I personally find such discussions silly, there are some distinct differences between the two systems that might be worth pointing out for those who consider investing into either system. Some of...

Nikon 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR

Nikon's last announcement today is the new Nikkor 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR, a super telephoto zoom lens designed for sports and wildlife enthusiasts.

Windows 10 Reserve

This week Microsoft released the long anticipated Windows 10, the latest, the greatest and the last "operating system of the future". Why the last? Microsoft claims that Windows 10 will be the last operating system with a version number, so we won't be seeing a Windows 11 or 12. Apparently,...

July 28, 2015 By Bennett Stevens 28 Comments

17. Kyaw-Kyaw-Winn - Bagan Cattleherd

What is most striking for a visiting photographer to Myanmar, beyond the legions of magnificent pagodas and monasteries, is its people. The 135 ethnic groups offer an extraordinary diversity of subjects to be sure, but it’s their welcoming nature and willingness to open their lives to the camera toting foreigner...

Wildlife Photography with a Short Telephoto Lens

July 25, 2015 By Spencer Cox 128 Comments

Anhinga

If it isn’t obvious from the photos I share on Photography Life, the camera equipment I use makes it quite clear: I am not a wildlife photographer. In fact, my longest lens weighs in at 105mm — nowhere near the super-telephotos used by most wildlife pros. However, although I rarely...

Taking Good Photos in Bad Light

July 23, 2015 By Spencer Cox 34 Comments

Stokksnes

Landscape photographers work primarily in natural light, which presents a few problems - for starters, the most beautiful lighting conditions each day last for no more than a few hours. Other times, sunsets will be lost behind cloudy skies, making it impossible to see a landscape at its best. When...

Long Exposures In The City

July 21, 2015 By Alpha Whiskey 57 Comments

8 Puerto Madero Buenos Aires

Quite a few people have emailed me in the past to write about shooting cityscapes with a long exposure and I have repeatedly asserted that while it is not especially complicated, I am certainly no expert on the subject. In fact, finding the time to write an article about it was a...
