Two National Geographic veterans, Bob Caputo and Cary Wolinsky, have launched PixBoomBa, a website where they share tips — in text, photographs and videos — on how to shoot better photographs.

Using humor and a self-deprecating style, Wolinsky and Caputo share insights gleaned from decades at the top of their field.

They said in a press release that PixBoomBa “is aimed at all those with a passion for picture taking and transcends the myriad photography blogs and camera review sites by making the technical and aesthetic elements of good photography accessible to anyone who wants to make better images, no matter their skill level, equipment, or budget.”

“We learned early on to take our work seriously, but not take ourselves too seriously,” says Caputo. “If we can make pretty good pictures, anyone can,” Wolinsky adds. “Sometimes people just need a few tips to get them going.” Here are some of the tips:

Tips on photographing strangers:

What is white balance?

Tips on shooting wildlife:
