Love it or hate it, Facebook has become an important social media platform for not only promoting your work but also for finding new clients. Whether you choose to create a fan page for your business or just upload your photographs to your own profile, you might be wondering what...

How to Make Facebook Show Images in Links

Facebook Debug

When publishing articles on our site, our team always cross-posts links to the same content on our Facebook fan page, where we have close to 250 thousand fans. One of the biggest frustrations we came across with Facebook, is when we post a link to an article that contains images,...

butterflies with CX 70-300 image 1

As part of my field work for my upcoming hands-on review of the 1 Nikon CX 70-300 f/4.5-5.6 telephoto zoom lens I went to the Niagara Butterfly Conservatory to take a few images. I spent a few very enjoyable hours at the conservatory taking photos of the various butterfly species...

My Announcement

Mansurovs Family Collage

This long overdue announcement was something I had been unintentionally delaying for too long this year. I started this letter months ago on an airplane and I am now sitting again at an airport, waiting for my four hour flight to Denver, in hopes that I will be able to...

Insights From a Nikon 1 User

November 5, 2014 By Thomas Stirr 99 Comments

insights Nikon 1 image 5

I would like to preface this article by saying it is not intended as a "do this, don't do that" sermon from the mount. To me, using a camera is akin to playing a guitar. It is simply an instrument that a person uses to achieve a particular outcome. And,...

Negative Space in Composition-5

You already know a great deal about the composition choices that I make. You know my thoughts on what matters most in photography, the rule of thirds, central composition and element placement at the edges of the frame. Whichever preference is yours, I certainly hope you've learned something from reading...

Explore the Edges

Explore the Edges-1

If we see the rule of thirds as the default, "bread and butter" sort of composition guide, I can think of at least two ways to break that rule and distance your work from it. The first one is to use, against the advice of many photographers, central composition. It...

A Beginner’s Guide to Choosing a Mirrorless Camera

November 4, 2014 By Guest Poster 27 Comments

Mirrorless Cameras

Have you ever traveled to the shopping mall in search of a product, only to be met by dozens of similar options to choose between? Lowest-price vs best-value, long-lasting vs quick-acting, eco-friendly vs cost-effective: we are drowning in possibilities that years ago didn’t exist. Perhaps nowhere is the epidemic of...

Sample Bird Images Using 1 Nikon CX 70-300 Lens

CX 70-300 Image 8

In advance of my upcoming hands-on review of the 1 Nikon CX 70-300 f/4.5-5.6 telephoto zoom lens I thought readers may like to see some sample bird images. It is late in the season in Southern Ontario and many birds have already migrated. Never-the-less I was able to get a...

Voltaic Solar Battery Charger Review

November 3, 2014 By John Sherman 10 Comments

Verm-Voltaic-Grand-Canyon-4632

What to do when you are out in the field with amazing scenery to shoot, a handful of exhausted camera batteries, and no electric outlets in sight? Self-disembowlment comes to mind, but wait, there are better options. I was recently on an 18-day Grand Canyon rafting trip and faced with...
