Filter photography, i.e. taking photos with filters placed in front of them, is associated by many exclusively with analogue photography. After all, why do we need physical filters today when our own recordings can simply be adapted to our own ideas in digital post-processing? In fact, it's not as easy as some might think, and filters have a right to exist today, perhaps more than ever.

Most photographers have probably played around with a remote camera release without realizing all the creative possibilities of this special tool. It is the remote release that makes a picture possible in some situations.

More than the camera itself, the lens contributes to a certain look in a photo.
