Hi @blessingscaptured!

I have never used an external flash on my camera – I’m sorry! Nature photography is my favorite to capture, so I’ve never had a need for the an external flash.

Hi @blessingscaptured! I have a Nikon D7200 and I’ve been very happy with it. If you’d like to see sample pictures taken on the D7200, you can check out my website: http://www.natureartphotographer.com. From my research on the D7500, is that it’s very similar, only newer and a little nicer :)!
If you have any specific questions about the D7200, just…[Read more]

Hi @tashavk!

Great job on those pictures! I can’t really give any tips on food photography as I haven’t tried it much, but some friends of mine have a food blog. Here is the link: http://www.savortheflavour.com I know it can be helpful to look at other people’s pictures and ideas, so I thought I’d pass this along!

Some more…!

Wow! Everyone’s photos are amazing! I love your pictures of the Rockies, @sonja-grace! It makes me miss the mountains and the west…

Here are my photos for the “peaceful” theme.

Thank you, @creative-click-photography & @bennett-family, for your helpful comments! I felt I needed another’s fresh look at the picture!

Lydia, thank you for sharing your edited version of the picture. It’s always fun to see what others come up with!

Hi Lydia!

I’ve never scanned artwork before, but I have scanned images (and edited them) and GIMP has worked well for me in the past. My siblings all use Mac and there is a photo editing program on there (not sure what it’s called) that seems to work well.

Thank you, @jamesstaddon, for your help! Since I asked the question, I’ve done some more research and decided that a backpack (on the smaller end) would be a better option. I’ll still keep my current small camera bag for miscellaneous things! Thanks again for your help!

Here’s one for now!

Hello everyone! Thank you so much for your helpful replies, @buddingphotographer, @blessingscaptured, and @elianafranzenburg! I’ll look into the links you gave. I also found another canvas company, canvasworld.com. Their reviews are very good and they seem to be high quality.

Thanks again!

Thank you so much, @jamesstaddon!

Thanks, @loganlamar! I’ll look into it soon! I’ll probably end up going with Lightroom in the next couple of months as I like to stay with what I’m familiar with, but I definitely look into On1.

Thank you for your help! I think I’ll upgrade to Lightroom in the near future!

Thank you for answering my question, @frazer-family! I think I’ll have to end up watching it later as I have a photo shoot at a horse farm tomorrow evening, too! Thanks for your help!

By the way, I’ve enjoyed seeing all of your submissions! God’s creation is amazing!

Here’s my submissions!
