Description
Are you relatively new to digital photography, and want your work to look more polished?Then this is for you!
I am going to share some tips and suggestions that helped me when I first started out, without getting into technical details.
It might take a while to load, please be patient
Please feel free to point out any corrections/additions.
Update: I presented a live tutorial on May 7th in the #photography chatroom on dAmn, that builds upon this one. You can find the log here: [link]

thank you for this information.
I was getting mad because my photography lacks in all aspects, and my camera is a Nikon Coolpix L22, it's not a bad camera, and i love what it's capable of. I always really DID think you needed a 1000 dollar camera to get the best image, but I guess it's the photographer, not entirely the equipment.

Thank you so much for making this guide. I want to get into creative photography, but I had no idea of where to start. Now I feel like I can go out and have a vague idea of what I'm doing. I would suggest a glossary, though.

Hey there
I have a favour to ask of you... I am currently doing my Year 12 HSC (Australian: Higher School Certificate, ie. Last year of high school) Information Processes and Technology major project, Which is to be a website on photography and cameras.
I saw your tutorial and was wondering if I would able to feature it on the site I make. Of course, You will be fully credited with links to your deviantart profile and deviation page.
I will also send you a link at the completion of the project if you would wish to see.
I would really appreciate if you agreed, but if you donβt, no hard feelings
Thanks!

i don't have a fancy camera and all, just a little hand-held one, and this could make my small photos a little more professional looking.

I never thought of calibrating my monitor. I'm sure a lot of other people overlooked that as well. I am going to do that right away! Thanks for this, it helped a lot

Photography had been an interest of mine for a long time, however, when I tried to capture a scene myself, it never came out right. I had trouble trying figure out how to make the photographs better. This has been a huge help and should allow me to improve so much. Thank you so much for the time you put into this!
