7 more mistakes that photographers often make
Wildlife and Adventure Photography
In this second podcast, I run through 7 more mistakes it's easy to make:
1. Shooting in Auto Mode
Shooting in Auto severely limits your creative options.
2. Not checking settings
It’s easy to forget to check settings in the heat of the moment. Stay on top of your settings, especially when conditions are changing quickly.
3. Housekeeping
Keep your camera equipment cleaned and properly stored. Mould in lenses will not help your photography.
4. Rushing the shot
Take the time to get your focus and exposure correct and be ready. Often things can happen very quickly, so it’s important to have everything properly set up.
5. Lack of Storytelling
A good photograph has a clear subject, and the background should provide some kind of context. Be a Visual Storyteller.
6. Shooting in Low Resolution
Always shoot in RAW and the maximum file size your camera can support. Social media doesn’t need it, but you’ll be grateful when you get that once-in-a-lifetime shot.
7. Ignoring post-processing
Ethical post-processing is a fundamental part of digital photography.
