1 Exposure, contrast, black point, noise, sharpness, vignetting… there’s no shortage of things you can adjust in typical photo software. But sometimes you don’t have the time or aren’t in the mood to work with them one by one. Fortunately there are simpler ways to edit your photos too. For example, the settings called “Presets.” Try them and you’ll finish your edits in seconds.

0 The magic of black and white has been with us since the dawn of photography, and meanwhile digital technologies still let you enjoy high-quality B&W even today. But now you don’t need a darkroom, color filters, or a refrigerator full of film cans with different ISOs. You just need a few mouse clicks.

3 Almost everyone who’s spent more than a little time with a camera shoots to RAW. After all, RAW lets you make bad photos average, average photos excellent, and excellent photos even better. That’s because it offers significantly more image data than, for example, JPG. And thanks to this it gives you room for much better edits. So let’s take a look at how to work with it.
Basic Edits
0 Vignetting, chromatic aberration, and deformations like barrel distortion. Every lens has defects like these to some degree or another. While in some pictures they may be hidden, in others they are visible. Fortunately they are easy to suppress. You just need to install the DNG converter and take advantage of LCP (and DCP) profiles.
Organizing Photos
2 A photographer’s work is hardly over at the end of the shoot. On the contrary, you need to sort, edit, and maybe also share and send the pictures. But even before all that, you need to get them off the camera onto your computer. There are several ways to get photos onto your computer. For example, you can copy them by hand. But much more elegant and efficient is to import them using Zoner Photo Studio.
Night Photography
3 Fireworks photography is a very special genre. Even though it’s not exceptionally complicated, there are a few rules you need to follow to get the best photos. Let’s take a look at them.
Presenting Your Photos
0 Nearly everyone sends greeting cards for the holiday season. But who really wants to get a store-bought card? The solution is simple—create your own greeting out of your own photos. Read on to learn how to do it.
Advanced Edits
0 Physical polarizing filters have been a useful tool for us photographers for many years now. They help us eliminate reflections and make skies look more natural. But if you don’t have one at home—or if you’ve forgotten it at home—that’s OK. You can also add the same effect on a computer.
Other Tips
0 “Too impersonal.” That’s how many people see it when you send a text message for Christmas. And so they’re slowly going out of fashion. People are turning to more original greetings—like paper Christmas postcards they make from their own photos. Take a look with us at how to create a postcard like this.
