As I continue to work with hundreds of photographers throughout the year, I find that many get a bit “off base” with their thought processes as they shoot. We become creatures of habit very easily— almost to the point of becoming predictably the same. Falling back to our comfort zone is a very dangerous and non-creative state of mind, but we already know that, don’t we! This list of tips will hopefully help us all get out of this rut that we sometimes get ourselves into. And, what better time is there to do it than the start of this New Year. Many of us use Facebook as our main venue for displaying and sharing our images. While this is a good idea, we have to remember that images on Facebook are small images and are very forgiving when quality is concerned. This can become a real “crutch” to hide shortcomings in our photography. Be cautious and don’t fall into this rut. Post one great photograph instead of ten mediocre photographs. Here are some things to think about: 1. Make sure you’re focused on the subject you intend to focus on; both with focusing placement and also with composition. Often we miss this and put too much in the photo and lose our intent. Find the right spot to place your focal plane, and if the autofocus won’t do it, then turn it OFF and focus manually. Compose the image to strengthen the image and to show the subject matter you want to show. 2. Crop in the viewfinder, not in post-production. This is one of the biggest problems with “younger” photographers. They tend to shoot WAY too loose and sometimes purposely plan to crop later in the post- production (Photoshop or similar programs). Try not to shoot loose and crop different compositions from the same image. Shoot the image and shoot the crop you want. Get tight and move in close. Planning to crop and shoot loose is not a good idea in the long run and limits you to very small images. 3. Learn to handle back-lit situations. It seems that at least a third of the time we are challenged with our light source being behind our subject. This creates exposure problems with most photographers and leads to silhouetted subjects in many cases. It’s better to have an image/subject that is a little overexposed and light than have the subject be too dark to recognize. 4. Learn to manually select a focus point when needed. Sometimes switching to “M” focus is the answer to controlling the exact focus point you want. Also, sometimes the solution is to change your focus points in the menu of your camera. Changing from nine points of focus to a center point of focus makes a big difference in the way your camera handles focusing. Check your camera’s menu and manual to see what options you have for fo- cusing points. Learn to find these focus point controls in your menus quickly so it doesn’t slow you down. 5. Take your time – study your viewfinder, check your settings, modes, composition, and focus placement. Slowing down is more of a benefit than any of us think. Most mistakes happen when we rush or are trying to hurry. The biggest argument to slowing down is this statement – “I can’t take my time … the subjects I shoot are quick and I don’t have but a few seconds to fire the shutter.” This may be true, and in this case, having this “prep time” happens before you shoot / it happens before you are there facing your shot. Being prepared for a shot makes the shooting process a lot easier. 6. Learn to use your on-camera flash. An on-camera flash is a wonderful tool. Most photographers don’t take the time and energy to learn to use it. Read your camera’s manuals and learn to use this tool; you won’t be sorry. 7. Take advantage of Photoshop and learn to correct obvious problems that you either did not or could not correct while in the field. Failing to straighten images is a big problem I see on image posts all the time. Beautiful sunsets/ sunrises that are not straight are something none of us like to see. 2 Photography Tips for 2019—Continued 8. Find out what changes can be achieved by changing the White Balance. Oddly, knowing what the different white balance settings do to an image seems to escape a lot of photographers; or, we just leave it on “auto” all the time. Making adjustments to the white balance is an important element in making your photography better. Images shot with the wrong balance never look as good after they are corrected in Photoshop as they would have looked if the proper WB had been used. 9. Find interesting points of view. Find an interesting angle to shoot from. Stop using the bird’s-eye view. Get on the ground, get up on something, shoot up at the subject, or shoot down at the subject … in short find a different and interesting angle to shoot from. Find a position that is different and unique from what people are used to seeing. 10. Figure out how to do long exposures for night street photography. All of us seem to love night photography images. Master this technique. Learn to use slow shutter speed. Buy a GOOD tripod. 11. Force yourself out of your comfort zone with your photography. This is the hardest thing to do as a photographer. I give hundreds of assignments to students each year as they complete my online photography course. Oddly enough, after seeing some of their assignments, I can recognize a pattern in the way they shoot. After a number of their assignments, I can almost tell whose photos they are without looking at the name on the email. Now, this is good AND bad. Developing a style is certainly important, but this style shouldn’t be a similarity that is SO defined that it’s the same in all of your images. This year, get out of your comfort zone, move out of your “box” and explore some new visual interpretations. 12. Learn your gear and know how to use the menus on the camera. This is one of the biggest downfalls of most photographers. We learn “one” setting, and we stick with it because we are comfortable with it. We are also afraid that our images will suffer if we go into a mode we are not certain about. Each mode on our camera has a definitive use and application. If we didn’t need them at some point, they wouldn’t be there. Learn these other modes and experiment with them. You’ll find that your photography will improve, and you’ll become a more versatile photographer. Now, I know that some of you are saying, “I already do all of this,” or “I know all of this.” I challenge you to prove to yourself that you do. I’ve given the first assignments from my “beginner photo course” to some students in my other courses, and oddly enough, they found it very challenging to do them properly. Don’t shortchange yourself. Take these 12 suggestions seriously. All of us want to become better photographers. All of us want to be the “best” photographer in our close group of photographer buddies. Well, the solution to that is right here. Learn this stuff and be “that” photographer. Enjoy!

Director Questions / Comments – [email protected] www.roushphotoeducation.com 3 Death & Life of a Photo Club Is your local photo club having problems attracting new members and/or retaining current members? If so, here are some suggestions that may assist you in getting new members and retaining members when they join. Many newbie members join a local club and are promptly disappointed because someone treats them as a “lesser” photographer beneath their level. This immediately throws a monkey wrench into their confidence and is deflated. Within any photography group or club, more experienced members should strive to pass on their knowledge without intimidation. The leaders of the club should remind everyone frequently, that new members are already at a disadvantage because the new members are walking into a well- established group with all the social challenges therein. 1.

    Tennessee Academic Standards 2019 EDUCATION CURRICULUM GUIDE MEMPHIS IN MAY INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL Celebrates Memphis in 2019 For the fi rst time in its 43-year history, Memphis in May breaks with tradition to make the City of Memphis and Shelby County the year-long focus of its annual salute. Rather than another country, the 2019 Memphis in May Festival honors Memphis and Shelby County as both celebrate their bicentennials and the start of a new century for the city and county. Memphis has changed the world and will continue to change the world. We are a city of doers, dreamers, and believers. We create, we invent, we experiment; and this year, we invite the world to experience our beautiful home on the banks of the Mississippi River. The Bluff City…Home of the Blues, Soul, and Rock & Roll…a city where “Grit and Grind” are more than our team’s slogan, they’re who we are: determined, passionate, authentic, soulful, unstoppable. With more than a million residents in its metro area, the City of Memphis is a city of authenticity and diversity where everyone is welcomed. While some come because of its reputation as a world-renown incubator of talent grown from its rich musical legacy, Memphis draws many to its leading hospital and research systems, putting Memphis at the leading edge of medical and bioscience innovation. Situated nearly in the middle of the United States at the crossroads of major interstates, rail lines, the world’s second-busiest cargo airport, and the fourth-largest inland port on the Mississippi River, Memphis moves global commerce as the leader in transportation and logistics.
