So, how did I go from the first shot with the busy background to the second shot with the nice, clean background in just three seconds? And, how can you apply this technique to your photography going forward? You’ll have to watch the video to find out! (Hint – it wasn’t software)
PS – If you enjoyed this post, I think you’ll REALLY like my e-books and video workshops! Thousands of pages and hours of videos filled with tips, tricks, and techniques – all my best content! Check ’em out – click here (hey, it’s free to look).
Steve,
Great presentation as always. I’ve been photographing for over 50 years (amateur only) and have had some success in competitions etc., but had never thought about the alignment of the focal plane to subject/background. Bless you for bringing this to my attention especially in such an easily understandable manner (as is the case in all your videos and books).
I love your videos and have several of your excellent books, especially since I’ve gone mirrorless.
Keep up the great work.
Dave Evans
Thanks for the kind words 🙂
