Welcome

With summer well and truly here, this is the perfect time to hone your photography skills and brush up on your camera craft.So, we’ve put together some golden rules to ensure you have a fruitful photographic summer (page 40).

You may have also noticed that we’ve had a bit of a makeover: I hope you love the new look as much as I do. Our new Practical Photoshop section (page 65) will help you get the best out of your digital files and perfect your photos.And as usual we have loads of cool gifts, including all-new tips cards to collect, presets, photo borders and 70 minutes of video – with loads more to come...

This month will be my last at the helm of Digital Camera.

Don’t panic! I won’t be going far. In fact, I’m writing a new column every issue about the way I see the world though my camera (page 37). Thanks for all your support, and I hope you enjoy Digital Camera’s fab new look...
