For today’s post, I thought I’d list a view of the websites that I enjoy visiting related to photography. While a number of the web sites I visit relate specifically to hardware or software that I use, the following sites are general in nature and focused on helping create better photographic images.

One of my favorites is the Digital Photography School, which you can access by clicking here. This web site provides a wealth of tips by many different photo enthusiasts. There is a mailing list if you’re interested that provides weekly updates on both newly published tips as well as popular archived tips.

Another good site for tips is DPhoto Journal, which you can access by clicking here. Again, these are general photography tips – for example, this group of articles specifically focused on taking better pictures of birds (click here).

For reviews of camera equipment, my hands-down favorite is Digital Photography Review, which you can access by clicking here. This website has detailed reviews of every major camera and lens manufactured – with extensive archives going back over about fifteen years. For instance, here’s the review of the camera I currently use – the Canon 20D (click here).

And then there’s photography magazines – some of my favorites are Outdoor Photographer, Shutterbug, Digital Photo Pro, and Professional Photographer.

In a future post, I’ll talk more specifically about what camera equipment I use and what computer software I use in post-processing of my photos, with links to some of the sites I visit related to these. For today, though, I hope you find some of the above websites interesting.
