From the next week – the best of dPS 2016

It’s time again for me to go through last year’s articles and find the best, most popular ones, for you. Starting off tomorrow with the hottest landscape articles, we’ll have a new topic each day, with several articles for you to read or review on each one.

dps-2016-best-of-the-1

Starting off 2017

After all the parties are over, we’ll get back to our regular schedule of two articles a day on January 2nd (Australia time). For the first couple days you’ll see the wrap-up of the Best Of series, and just one post per day from us, then it’s back to business as usual.

So expect some good reading coming up. If you have some time you can catch up on a few articles you may have missed or focus on learning a new, specific technique.

Also remember to keep an eye out for our 12 Days of Christmas sale for some great photography deals.

Christmas, Hanukkah, Fiesta of the Lady of Guadalupe, Day of the Virgin, and many other world holidays happen this month. Every religion and culture celebrate in their own unique way. Here in Nicaragua where I will be spending Christmas, they parade a statue of the Virgin Mary down a new street each night, complete with marching band and bombas (fireworks).
