On-Axis Fill Flash
This week we’ll be taking a look at a little lighting technique for opening up harsh shadows in portraiture. Directional light (like off camera flash) is almost always more visually interesting but can often create a problem of very dark areas on your subject’s face. This may be desirable in some situations but usually you will want to bring some detail back into those areas.
Nikon Instant Rebates
The spring rebate season is in full swing with great deals from both Canon and Nikon. The popular Canon lens and flash rebate program is back on; this is the perfect time to think about upgrading to that ‘L’ lens you’ve been thinking about.

Introduction to Actions (Part One)
Ever wish you could record a set of Photoshop commands and repeat them at a later time? Welcome to the world of Photoshop actions. So what is an action?
An action is a recorded set of image editing commands that can be performed at a later time without having to re-enter each change manually. Actions can provide a handy way for editors to speed up commonly used tasks and are compatible with the Batch function in Photoshop (allowing you to automatically apply commands to hundreds of images with only a few keystrokes).
