This week's blog is devoted to SLR tips - in honor of the Wiley DVD that I am currently shooting on the new Canon Rebel T1i (available this fall). All the photos were and will be taken with that camera. It's a also to celebrate my new SLR classes on Kelbytraining.com (available now).

Move In or Zoom In Closer

Here's an important photo expression: When you think you are close, move in or zoom in closer.

I could go on to explain, but the two pictures here illustrate the important of following that advice.

Keep that thought in mind, and you'll get pictures with more impact.

Speaking of zooming, if I could only take one lens with me on a shoot, it would be my 24-105mm IS zoom. Nice for landscapes, portraits and environmental portraits.

Gotta zoom outta here for the last day of our T1i shoot..... HD video!

See the light,
Rick
