With money too tight to mention these days, many of you may well be looking into other ways to raise some extra dosh. So why not learn how to profit from your photography? In this issue’s Make Cash With Your Canon guide, we show you useful routes to turning your hobby into a revenue stream. From where to begin to shooting weddings and family portraits, stock libraries to selling prints, and running workshops, there’s a variety of options available to try. I also share my story how I started up my own freelance photography business – which keeps me busy when I’m not working on PhotoPlus – and how I specialise in portraits, and commercial photography such as luxury properties and interiors (see above). Turn to page 28.

Also inside this issue, wildlife pro photographer Paul Fowlie proves to our PhotoPlus Apprentice that it’s possible to take atmospheric shots of animals in their natural habitat, even when it’s hosing it down! Page 8.

In Canon Skills we have new photo projects, from misty scenic shots to close-ups of colourful mushrooms in the woods, plus more image-editing tutorials in Photoshop, Lightroom and Affinity Photo. All projects and tutorials come with free video guides to follow along, from page 45.

We speak to incredible photographer David Lund, who has made liquid splash shots into a photographic art form, see his profile on page 64.

In Canon School, Marcus Hawkins helps you control your colours, and Brian Worley answers your technical questions, from page 76. Plus we test eight of the best lightweight lenses for those big days out or for your travels, from page 88.
