I have been pouring over books and reviews online and I can’t seem to gather a concensus of lenses that are best for architectural photography.

Photography frames are used to preserve and display your fine photography from humidity, acidity, environmental pollution and ultraviolet rays as well as plain dust. You can choose from ready made picture frames, or use available framing supplies to construct your own custom picture frames.

If you are like me, you have no idea what f-stop is or shutter speed or how about aperture? Any way i thought i would come up with a kind of “amateur pet photographer” tutorial and I will keep it simple.

1. Lighting- Lighting is key! Outside photos work best on pets but if your inside try to get extra lighting in darker rooms. Bring a plug in lamp or two to light up that dark room. Try to avoid flash when possible or you will get the “green” or “red” eye.

2. Position- Get down low with pets unless you have an elephant or lion as…
