Welcome to our Techniques Area

NikitaSo you've got the camera, you have the accessories, you've read the manual... but the practical process of photography or photo editing is still largely a mystery. Welcome to the Techniques section of ePHOTOzine where we'll demist your foggy photographic windscreen and make everything clear. From focal lengths and fill-flash to Hollywood portraits, using metering and shooting classic cars there's techniques for everyone. There are also cover photo editing techniques showing how to create speed, grainy black and white, add creative edges, replace backgrounds and more.
