Last week we featured a tutorial from a pro explaining several "essential" tips for shooting epic photos after the sun drops below the horizon. Today we're following up with what another expert calls, "The ultimate tips and tricks for editing night photos in Luminar Neo."

Regardless of what software you use for processing images, keyboard shortcuts are very important tools. That’s because they dramatically speed up the process, streamline the workflow, and increase your productivity.

Today drones are better known as unmanned military aircraft that appear in the news with ever-increasing frequency. There was less coverage years ago when they were used strictly for surveillance. But now, as they fire ordinance on suspected terrorist targets, these high-tech vehicles are rewriting the rules of aerial warfare.

The lure and magic of wildlife and nature images tempts many photographers to jump into the field. However, it’s not nearly as easy as many aspiring pros think or hope. The all-important “look before you leap” challenges to this photo field can be considerable and the start-up time longer than the usual commercial photography business.

Another item on most photographers' holiday wish lists this year will be a photo gear bag (for that amazing new camera and all the latest gadgets that are, of course, also on your list). And Booq has a wide variety of sizes and styles of great caemra bags to choose from. If you have your eye on a new DSLR (or just want a case for the one you already have) then check out the Booq Python toploader bag.
