My family used to be really big on masking tape in the seventies. Now that Gorilla tape is here, duct tape isn't the best anymore. I used shoe strings for my digital cameras neck strap because only a magician can get the manufacturer's neck strap to work. Everybody swears on flashlights and gels for time exposures, funky coloring. Mirrors, aluminum foil on cardboard, white cardboard, etc.

I like doing in-camera double and multiple exposures.

I like to compose a city skyline (at night) and then zoom from 70mm to 210mm during the exposure.

I enjoy macro photography and have the macro lens and macro ring flash for it.

I like using my 16mm fisheye lens for strange effects.

I love using bounce flash and an off-camera bracket for my flash.

I made a "lens hood" from a shiny mylar balloon just to see what the effect would be.

I made a "starburst" filter effect with some screen wire.

I put a thin coat of vaseline on a Skylight 1A (uncoated) filter and mounted it on a polarizer so I could turn it for different effects.

I've found a lot of good ideas at AIRC-Adorama Imaging Resource Center.

I subscribe to Shutterbug Magazine.

Monopods are great for shooting sports, but they're a pain when you have to turn your body to follow runners or cars.

Shorten your 'pod and tuck the tip in the top of your trousers, behind the belt buckle.

You'll get a lot of bemused looks but the pix will speak for themselves.

I'm going to cop out on this one and say that you (anyone) should just browse through my little "tutorials" on Flickr and read the comments under the images that are of interest.
