You don’t need stunning locations to get stunning images – we show you how to capture great shots without stepping outside your front door, using only basic kit
Getting artistic shots at home is all about ingenuity and vision. You don’t need loads of kit or even much space to kick-start your photography, just a bit of imagination and a little creative inspiration. And we can help with that: this issue we’ve come up with five simple home projects that will help you to capture some truly amazing results in no time.
We’ll start by showing you how to take simple but classy flower portraits using just window light, before demonstrating how to use flash to capture dynamic water-drop splashes and smoke. You’ll also discover new ways to get amazing close-ups without a macro lens, and how to build your own mini studio.
So get up from the sofa, and make the most of the surprising subjects that are hidden around your home.
