Graham's useful photography links
Using Word
Consultancy
These are links I have found useful to gain further knowledge about photography or to seek inspiration from the work of others. It's just the beginning and this site will grow to include more of my own photos and tips. Please bookmark and check back from time to time.
WEA
The WEA (South Australia) is an adult education association offering
an extensive and very diverse range of short or longer courses for personal
interest or vocational development. Search for Travel Photography
to see the next course I will be presenting. Other courses of interest
include more photography courses, travel and digital imaging.
National
Geographic
Some great pictures, needless to say. You can sign up for a newsletter,
Photo of the Day, get tips from the pros, download wallpaper, etc.
California Museum of Photography
An elegant site worth exploring. Houses some famous collections, eg,
Eadweard Muybridge, Ansel Adams, as well as records of current and past
exhibitions.
Time
Life
Time Life Photo Site. Some interesting galleries to explore but it is
a business so you need to register and pay to get to the real goodies.
Kodak
Excellent tips for all. Click on the ‘Taking Great Pictures’
tab on the home page. Well presented information on a variety of topics.
Photography Tips
Billing itself as ‘the internet’s #1 guide to better photography’
this site has very useful information including a glossary of photographic
terms and has galleries featuring guest photographers. Starting as a
free site it now relies on subscriptions to support its ongoing development.
Atomic
Learning
Not a photography site but a great place to get learning objects related
to computing, digital imaging, movie making as well as learning how
to do most computer tasks. Some free samplers (see Rule of Thirds) and
a modest annual license fee if you wish to make full use of it. A good
way to get ‘just in time’ help.
All Digital Photography
Another ‘how to’ site with tips on photographing kids, comets,
and other curiosities of nature.
Earth From the Air
Fabulous photos of the earth from above created by Yann Arthus-Bertrand.
Just inspiring. Where can I get a helicopter?
Steve Parish
One of the best known and certainly the most published Australian outdoor
photographers. The gallery of his work and tips will reward you with
lots of ideas.
Earthboundlight
Sometimes you just come across nice sites by people wanting to share
their passions. This is one such – ‘Nature Photography from
the Pacific Northwest and beyond by Bob Johnson’. And if you like
the photos and weekly lessons you may also want to follow up on Bob’s
links.
So you want more tip sites? Try doing a search for “photo tips” in your favorite search engine. Note that enclosing both words in double inverted commas turns them into a single search string, otherwise you would get everything related to ‘tips' AND ‘photo’.
