These days anyone who can swim can take photos underwater. In most cases you don’t even need to buy a whole new camera setup- it’s possible to fit a clear plastic underwater housing to many popular digital compacts.

So I just started delving into some stock photography software that should make selling photographs online a little bit easier. One of the reasons I actually stopped uploading to some of the less profitable microstock sites is the large amount of time involved in uploading and keywording. It stopped making sense to me to spend […]

Not everyone can afford to pay for RAW editing software such as Photoshop or Lightroom. So, I have compiled a list of free RAW editing software for the photographer on a budget. I can’t personally vouch for any of these programs as I use Photoshop and Lightroom for all of my RAW conversion. 1. Able […]
