PHOTO TIPS GALORE BY EDWARD MAJOR
Hi, I am Edward (Ed) Major and I have been a photographer ever since I was given an SLR camera for my 21st birthday. In those days it was a 35mm film camera long before digital SLR cameras were invented. I have been a keen amateur for more years than I would like to own up to and learned a lot about photography often the hard way. I would like to help you learn faster than I did and not make the same mistakes.

PiXimperfect - Keep Creating
PiXimperfect, hosted by Unmesh Dinda, is a free resource for learning Photoshop and Lightroom.
We believe in learning the concept, rather than learning the steps so that you can translate "your" imagination visually to the world. This will make you a better decision-maker, rather than letting others make decisions for you. Since every situation is different and the definition of "beauty" is subjective, it is essential that you master the approach, and then the steps will automatically follow.
