We're always looking for quick tricks to make us better photographers. What we like about photographer and educator Mark Hemmings' photo tutorials is that he offers simple tips on how to shoot better photos and then expands on them so you're learning several techniques at once.

Photographers share millions of their images every day on social media. There are so many photos floating around on Instagram, Facebook and other sites, it may seem impossible to get your photos to stand out, so they get the "likes" they deserve.

Streamlining the photographic workflow tops the list for most digital photographers, whether professional or hobbyist. After all, you put a great deal of time and effort into capturing that perfect shot - the concept, the subject, the location, the lighting –  so the last thing you want to do is spend tons of time having to recreate that perfect image just because you used different lenses when shooting, or you needed to make significant color adjustments to suit your monitor (or several monitors!) not to mention more tweaking when it comes to your printer and other output devices.
