Photography Basics - Creative Editing – Ten Lessons

10 ways to improve the final image - Photography Basics

  1. The more you get right in the camera the less time you spend editing

  2. Every correction for sloppy camera work degrades the quality of the image

  3. The camera can only take the image so far so recognise the potential of an image with editing

  4. Stick to your intention for the image when editing – if you don’t know, don’t edit

  5. Tame your adjustments so they stay balanced and representative of what you want to show

  6. Never edit or style an image according to what’s popular or seems to fit the trends

  7. Be true to yourself and the image – no one else should judge your work more than you

  8. Use the best tool for the job, don’t get attached to one method or toolset

  9. Take time to edit regularly and thoroughly so you become proficient and efficient at it

  10. Be prepared to live with a version for some time and if needs be, re-work it again.
