Tip of The Week
Here's a nice tip on exposure. As you may know, exposure can dramatically change the personality of a scene. Give the scene 'life' by slightly overexposing. Give it 'mood' with a little less exposure. Consider slight changes in your shooting angle. More sky, less sky, no sky, more foreground, and so on. Keep your photos fresh by investigating new ways to present them!
