In my book "Digital Photography Anthology - A Collection of My Best Photography Blog Posts," we discuss things, such as: Digital Camera Features Composition/Exposure Tips to help you get the right shot Digital Camera Features The features we cover in this edition are lens hoods, bracketing and digital zoom verses optical zoom. A lens hood comes with almost every lens, but yet I see very few people using them when I'm out shooting. Why? I don't know as they are a very valuable accessory that will help prevent lens flare - those six-sided ghosts what appear in your images when shooting into the sun. As far as bracketing, when you have a wide range of contrast between your brightest and darkest areas, shoot at least three images using bracketing. Then digitally you can combine those three images and get the best image. In one article we talk about the difference between the two zooms and how to use each one. Composition/Exposure We have at least four articles dedicated to composition and exposure. Other articles that also include composition and exposure information are "7 Steps to Great Photos" and "4 Essential Elements in Any Landscape Digital Photograph." Tips to Help You Get the Right Shot Articles containing tips include: ==> "10 Tips for Improving Your Wildlife Photography" ==> "6 Tips to Take Better Pictures With Your Digital Camera Digital Photography" ==> "3 Steps to Great Sunset Photos" Other articles contain seasonal tips such as: ==> "The Splendor of Fall Color" ==> "Seasonal Digital Photography - Winter" ==> "How to Take Pictures of Fireworks" You'll find this 90-page book chocked full of usable information you can instantly use to take your photography skills to the next level."
