You've heard this before:
Digital cameras do all the work. You just push the button and great pictures magically appear. The better the camera, the better the photos. Isn't that right? Wrong!
The truth is that you can make great photos with a simple point-and-shoot camera,or take awful shots with the most expensive DSLR.
It's not about the camera; it's the photographer. With a little study, practice, and a willingness to make an adjustment here and there, you can squeeze great photos out of the smallest digicam.
Here's one quick tip for your to start making better pictures.
Warm Up Those Tones
Have you ever noticed that your shots sometimes have a cool, clammy feel to them? If so, you're not alone. The default white balance setting for digital cameras is auto, which is fine for most snapshots, but tends to be a bit on the "cool" side.
When shooting outdoor portraits and sunny landscapes, try changing your white balance setting from auto to cloudy. That's right, cloudy. Why? This adjustment is like putting a mild warming filter on your camera. It increases the reds and yellows resulting in richer, warmer pictures.
