  • The Depth of Field Advantage No One Mentions About Micro Four Thirds
    by Alex Cooke on 23rd February 2026 at 11:03

    You keep hearing that a 50mm f/1.8 on full frame gives a look that smaller sensors cannot match. That might be true, but it misses the point when your goal is depth, not blur.  [Read More]

    by Alex Cooke on 23rd February 2026 at 09:03

    Metallic paper can turn a flat-looking deep-sky file into something with depth and bite. If you care about how your astronomical images look on paper instead of just on a screen, the choices you make before hitting print decide whether the stars glow or fall dull.  [Read More]

  • Everything You'll Ever Need to Know About Fujifilm Lens Mounts and Compatibility
    by Alex Cooke on 22nd February 2026 at 22:03

    Fujifilm occupies a unique position in the camera market. While Canon, Nikon, and Sony battle for full frame dominance, Fujifilm has charted its own course: a mature APS-C system beloved by enthusiasts and professionals alike, plus a medium format lineup that brings large sensor photography to a broader audience than ever before. For photographers entering Fujifilm's world in 2026, the lens ecosystem can seem deceptively simple at first glance, but there's more nuance hiding beneath the surface than you might expect.

  • Building a Photography Workflow That Actually Helps You in the Field
    by Darren J. Spoonley on 22nd February 2026 at 19:03

    A photography workflow is simply a repeatable way of working. It covers how you prepare, how you shoot, and how you deal with your images afterward. In landscape photography, where light, weather, and access are often limited, having a workflow removes uncertainty and prevents small mistakes from becoming lost opportunities. It is not about being rigid or technical. It is about reducing friction so that your attention stays on the landscape rather than on what you forgot or what comes next. [Read More]

  • A New Polarizing Filter Designed for Winter Photography
    by Simon Burn on 22nd February 2026 at 17:03

    When PolarPro sent me their new Arctic circular polarizer, I was quite excited. This new polarizer has been designed specifically for winter photography in cold, harsh conditions.  As luck would have it, they sent the filter to the right person. I know a thing or two about shooting in harsh winter conditions, living in Canada. A typical winter often sees me out shooting in minus 26 degrees Celsius. I’ve been on photographic assignments to the Arctic and shot in as low as minus 62 degrees Celsius on occasion. Cold is my photographic collaborator. [Read More]

And now I am already working on another video, in which I will take you directly to the South American equator in the middle of the mountain cloud forest of the eastern Andes. There, I will introduce you to one of the strangest ducks in the world – the Torrent Duck.

  • Photographing the Agami Heron: A Rare Encounter in a Drying Amazon
    by Libor Vaicenbacher on 20th February 2026 at 23:28

    We tend to think of the Amazon rainforest as the moist, fresh-green lungs of our planet. An endless ecosystem constantly nourished by life-giving rain, threaded with thousands of rivers, oxbow lakes, and lagoons. This image of the Amazon as a place with a more or less stable, humid climate held true for millions of years. Unfortunately, extreme weather swings are becoming increasingly common in this cradle of biodiversity beneath the world’s longest mountain range.

  • What Makes For Good Bokeh in Photography?
    by Jason Polak on 19th February 2026 at 01:09

    Good bokeh on a lens is a bit complicated. It might seem like you can just take a portrait with a blown-out background, and if it looks good, then the lens you're using must have good bokeh. But the truth is a bit more complicated than that.

  • New Video: Photographing the Elusive Chamois
    by Spencer Cox on 16th February 2026 at 19:35

    In today's video, Libor Vaicenbacher journeys into the Lusatian Mountains of Czechia in search of the chamois - small goat-antelopes native to Europe and Western Asia. Along the way, he contends with frigid temperatures and damaged equipment, while the chamois are nowhere to be found.

  • Photography News: Tripod Sales, 3rd-Party Lens Rumors
    by Libor Vaicenbacher on 16th February 2026 at 06:04

    Yesterday, I listened to a very inspiring interview with the wonderful photographer Jan Jirkovský. Although I would classify him as a documentary photographer, he does not consider himself to be one. His reasoning was that documentary photographers usually focus on sad and serious topics, whereas he wants his photographs of people to capture the joy of life. Even in places such as psychiatric hospitals or prisons.

  • January 2026 Photo Contest Winners: Rhythm and Repetition
    by Rob Wood (Admin) on 17th February 2026 at 16:00

    We're happy to announce the winner of January's competition, “Rhythm And Repetition.” Kim captured this stunning photo of a Zebra with striking repetitive patterns and has composed the image in a way the focus is limited to the repeating patterns and the rhythm created as a result. Keeping just the eyes in the frame has allowed the viewer to focus on the interesting patterns and how they work as a powerful compositional tool. Congratulations on capturing a very effective Rhythm and Repetition photo Kim! The post January 2026 Photo Contest Winners: Rhythm and Repetition appeared first on Light Stalking.

  • A First Look At The DJI Air 3S
    by Jason Row on 17th February 2026 at 13:00

    As drone fliers we are used to the ever increasing regulation of our hobby/profession. So in 2025 when the UK’s CAA announced it would be changing the rules on UK drone flying, I was concerned but not surprised. However when the new rules were finally announced it wasn’t as bad as feared and in many respects it was a positive move. The post A First Look At The DJI Air 3S appeared first on Light Stalking.
