Not talking about recommendations for cameras or anything like that, now I've got my new beastie I'd like to get a bit better with it. Can anyone recommend any good links to photography websites dealing with the actual techniques involved in taking a good photo, what all the stuff means (I don't know my SLRs from my ASAs!) All suggestions gratefully recommended. Peej |
Good photography website recommendations

Registered 20 years agoNot what you are after but a usefull site for buying all bits for digital and non digital photography is www.7dayshop.com which I think delivers to the UK only.
They sell anything I have ever thought of - including underwater camera bags for under £30. -

Registered 20 years agoNice resource...!
Useful stuff there but definitely after the techniques rather than the kit...
That said, if anyone's got a decent 35mm body they wanna sell cheaply..(gets smack around back of head for spending too much again this month)

Tas.
Tic.
I wish I'd known such things exist 3 weeks ago when I was swimming with turtles. Minolta do an underwater case for my camers, but at £225 it's a little steep...

Mind you the weather is going to be shitey in Sept...

I have pimped it several times in the past. Great for dust storms and sand as well. -

Can I recommend joining your local library? LOADS of photo reference material in the average library and some digital stuff too.
Good plan. Might have to do that when my weekends stop being fucked.

Cool site! See, that's what I bought a digicam for, that sort of stuff (OK we'll dispense with taking pics of people's arsecracks on the tube!)

Crumbs, they're absolute genius! How does he get them? Some of those b&w ones made me laugh out loud!
