Art Photography Crafty Tip
Using light creatively is one of the best ways to improve a composition. Constantly change the way you are using light in order to create interesting photographs. Try a different angle and move around the subject until the light hits the subject in the best possible way. Try to challenge yourself with every shoot.

Art Photography Crafty Tip
Don't be afraid to get in close and clip the tip of peoples heads or other objects out of the frame. Very often it helps the image, giving it a more dramatic approach. If your camera doesn't have a zoom facility then move closer physically.

I use photography as a medium for expressing my personal vision of the world, and giving light to the visions of my dreams. By giving myself freedom from accurate representation, the camera can record what the conscious mind refuses to see. It is a window into another world where reality becomes mystical; and the possibilities for celebrating light, form, and texture are endless. It is my hope that viewers will have a strong emotional connection with these images.
Editor's Note: This artist uses hand-painted acrylic and watercolor backgrounds with her photography to create truly unique pieces of artwork.

Art Photography Crafty Tip
Learn all the technical rules of your chosen craft, but then experiment and break all the rules. True creativity comes from going off the beaten path. Sometimes you need to set time and materials aside just to play without any expectations of producing anything usable. That's a great thing to do if you find yourself in a rut.

Art Photography Crafty Tip
My cousin has infected me with the hobby of photography. He encouraged me to buy a camera. Since then, I love to travel around forests, villages, and small cities exploring their culture and architecture. I wished to see a lot things!!!! I have to say that many of my early shots were simply bad. I wish to advise that you must never delete your pictures from your camera that you think might not be good. They might truly look wonderful on the monitor of your computer or after being printed on photographic paper. If you wish to accent the ordinariness of an object, you should not overuse PhotoShop or your picture will take no longer look like a natural image. If you have a semiprofessional camera, it is best to support your camera when taking your pictures because it will help to take pictures that are crisp and clear.

Tips to photograph wildlife without a big zoom lens:
1. Taking great photographs doesn't require a $10,000 600mm super tele-photo lens! I get consistently good results with a 300mm lens for a couple of hundred dollars, made by a brand you know and trust.
2. Shoot using the largest RAW format setting on your camera. Your memory card will fill up faster, but it gives you greater flexibility in cropping and editing your image without your final print looking pixelated.
3. Slow down and be quiet when photographing wildlife! Don't rush forward to get the shot; you'll only be more likely to scare them away or even cause them to attack you. Move slowly and quietly towards them a few steps at a time and then remain still. Of course they will be aware of your movements, but if you move cautiously, they will not feel threatened. Never forget that wild animals can and do attack but with patience, you can get close enough to catch and amazing photograph.
4. Avoid using your flash because that tends to frighten animals and put them on alert, making them more likely to bolt.

Art Photography Crafty Tip
Whenever you are shooting a landscape photograph always make sure that the horizon is straight before you take the photo. It is possible to adjust the image later using software, but it is much better to get it right in the first place so that the image needs as little adjustment as possible.
