THIS month we’ve got fantastic photo projects and tutorials for you to get stuck into. Kicking us off on page 44, James shows you how to harness polarized light with an LCD screen, a few champagne flutes and a polarizing filter. Meanwhile, I show you how to achieve a fun miniature effect in Photoshop, even if you don’t own a pricey tilt-shift lens, page 48. Spring has finally sprung! So now is the perfect time of year to give your entire kit bag a good clean, to keep your Canon spick and span for another year and banish those pesky dust spots (page 50).
If you’d rather brush up on your image-editing skills, don’t miss this month’s Fundamentals where Sean shows you how to colour grade your images (on page 54), and James shows you how to pull off Luminosity masking in Photoshop using Channels (page 56). Plus find out how to bolster your RAW portraits in Affinity Photo on page 58.
