One-third of plastic packaging produced in the U.K. for small and big businesses is non-recyclable, while 1/3 of all paper and card is still not fully recycled. Around 7 million tonnes of cardboard end up in U.K. landfill every year.

Sustainability
Sustainability is maintaining or supporting a process over time so that future generations can continue to inhabit the earth well into the future.
Blue Hour Photography
Blue hour photography is photographed during the twilight periods in the morning or evening when the sun is below the depth of the Earth’s horizon, in which the remaining sunlight takes on a primarily blue shade. The best time to shoot blue hour photography is approximately fifty minutes before sunrise, after sunset, or when the sun is between 4° and 8° below the horizon.
Camera Cleaning
Camera cleaning is an essential maintenance routine which hobbyists and professional photographers must undertake to ensure their camera is in good working order. Furthermore, having a clean camera is essential for photographers to reduce post-process times and maintain high-quality images.
Cropping
The word crop means to “trim or cut back”. Most photography processing apps have a crop tool to trim unwanted areas of an image, such as excess negative space or distractions, i.e. people, road signs, etc. Cropping can also be used to make an image smaller (in pixels) and to alter the image’s aspect ratio, i.e. the width and length of an image.
Homepage
“A homepage is the main epicentre of your brand and products. A website with no homepage is like a storefront with no name, door, greeting, offers, etc. A homepage is the virtual storefront of your site and the most crucial page. Think of it like a storefront with your name at the top, a “brief” introduction about who you are and what you do or sell. In addition, your homepage must serve the customers you’re trying to attract.”
Constructive Criticism
Constructive criticism is a form of positive and constructive feedback that offers supportive advice and ideas to an individual. Constructive criticism should be applied to someone’s artwork when requested.
Auto ISO
Automatic ISO is widely used by both professional and beginner photographers alike. Auto ISO is a great feature that I’ve used on old and new Sony and Lumix models, and as yet, I’ve not experienced any significant issues.
Photoshop Stylize
The stylize filter is excellent for amateur and professional photographers looking to improve their creative photography skills; however, it’s not an editing tool I would recommend for daily use. It would be unwise to fill your portfolio with edited images using the stylize filter because not everyone likes that style of photography.
Wildlife Garden
Wildlife gardens are a cheap yet practical way to shoot wildlife from the confines of your home garden. Wildlife gardens attract wildlife, such as birds, moths, rodents, squirrels, foxes etc. Wildlife gardens attract wildlife naturally without using bait or tape lures, meaning the images you capture have been shot ethically.
