Controlling gelled lights can be tricky. We all struggle with washed-out or even muddy colours occasionally and the core reason for this, is your coloured lights overlapping and mixing. The reason I repeatedly say this, is because coloured light doesn’t mix like regular colours. When we mix paints, the more colours you add, the closer you get to a muddy brown colour. Cast your mind back to preschool and you’ll know what I mean....

When you need to travel with gear that you want to keep safe, it can be a pain. Sure, you can just throw a bunch of stuff in a backpack, but if you’re going somewhere rugged and it’s being thrown around a lot during travel, a hard case like a Pelican or Nuprol case is often much better.

An 18-year-old photographer Vijay Suddala proves it with his magnificent photo that I immediately wanted to learn more about....

Or did they just not realise that Google told the world exactly what camera an image was shot with? There’s been a lot of talk and fuss over the Huawei P9‘s dual camera system, and how it’s supposed to “rival DSLRs”, but if the claims were true, you’d think they’d not upload a shot made with an actual DSLR to promote their phone’s camera....
