Photography Tip - Using light in travel photography

George Eastman, founder of Kodak said:

'Light makes photography. Embrace light. Admire light. Love it. But above all, know light. Know it for all you are worth, and you will know the key to photography.'

Many travellers mistakenly think that owning an expensive DSLR camera automatically makes them a great travel photographer. If that were true, Australia would have 14,000,000 great photographers. Unfortunately, that's a long way from the truth.

Quality travel images, including travel portraits come from an understanding of the way light works. Part observation, part camera knowledge and part one's ability to engage the subject are the key elements.

Dale Neill is running another On The Move photography workshop (Travel and Street Photography), over three days, commencing on 15 November 2014.

For the young at heart and adventurous travel photographer Wild Heart's photographic and cultural tour of Budapest, Croatia and the Dalmatian Coast sets sail in April 2015.

Two new workshops at UWA Extension

UWA Extension are hosting two new Dale Neill photography workshops in August 2014.  

Photographing Faces on Sun 10 August combines theory/practical and provides you with critical  tips on lens choice, how to make a $150 lens perform like a $2000 lens, Rembrandt and Butterfly lighting and six simple poses to relax your subject.

For those with a bent on vintage cameras and film photography Exploring Film Cameras on Sat 9 August examines the six best second-hand film cameras to buy, handling film, how and where to buy, manual exposure, precision focusing and archiving negatives. The workshop includes a critique of your prints approximately two weeks later.



Positive film is like a truth serum. Its an acid test of your ability as a photographer. You get just one chance to get the exposure, colour and sharpness exactly right. There's no second chance.  Dale Neill


The wrap-up night from your recent UWA extension course was an absolute highlight - especially looking at everyone's results and your comments on them. Thanks again for an inspiring course.
