Microstock Photography

There is no rule in photography that your constant angle is the best one. Lighting settings on cameras and the diffudion and shadows cast by light change as the angle to the lens, mirrors, and camera changes. Work the difference to grab the shot. Find ways to alter camera setting, angle, and shutter speed to provide options.

Advanced software suites can offer intensely sophisticated effects, but the processing requirements, access to the appropriate licenses, and computing time necessary may not appeal to everyone. And that’s after you’ve gotten used to using this or that program, and absorbed the learning curve for that particular command or procedure. Simple tidying up inside a file and adjusting what elements you can of a less than ideal setting can work wonders on the value of a single image.
