Digital Camera Magazine PotY 2006

previous article: next article:

Picture-2.jpgDigital Camera Magazine* is a fantastic magazine for all avid photographers, and the DCmag POTY (Photographer of the Year) competition is always a lot of fun. This year’s competition is well on its way, and it’ll be very exciting to see which of the highly talented photographers will run off with the top prize this year!

Entry to Photographer of the Year 2006 is free, but you must be a member of the Digital Camera Magazine website before you are allowed to submit you entries. Once you have you DCMag account, you will be able to log in to the Photographer of the Year 2006 site and start uploading your entries straight away.

… So get an account, and submit a photo or two at DCmag POTY2006… it can’t harm to try, and who knows, perhaps this spurs you on to create great, new works of art!

Finally, you may have noticed that this entry is tagged “competitions”. I’m a big believer in participating in photography competitions to get good photo critique and to improve as a photographer, so expect more photo competition writeups soon!

*) Quick disclaimer: DCmag are published by Future Publishing, and I work for another publication at the same publishing house. Jake (the web editor over at DC Mag) is a great guy, but other than that, I have no connections to the magazine at all. I am not participating in POTY this year. You should, though!

Money made from this advert will be invested in prime lenses.

So, the 550D and the 50D cost practically the same, and have different advantages. Which one would you buy?

It goes 'tweet'

  • • Seems a bit pointless to me, but Canon is buying the .canon top level domain: http://is.gd/aLJEp . Why? (link)
  • • That goes in the same category as ExpertSexChange.com and PsychoTheRapist.com, I suppose. (link)
  • • ferrethandjobs.com is actually a completely SFW domain, despite the hillarious URL. I'm enough of a geek to enjoy that. (link)

My books

Macro Photography Photo Workshop

Macro Photography Photo Workshop by Haje Jan Kamps My day job, if it can be called that, is being a writer. I've got one book out there so far and it's awesome, so go ahead and buy a copy! It's available from Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk, and most decent-sized bookshops, too!

To find out more, check out this post! If you want to know more about the 'being a writer' thing, check this site out.

Put another dime in the jukebox

Put another dime in the jukebox In front of you, five hyperactive men with guitars, drums, and microphones. Behind you, five thousand fans. In your hands, a camera... You're going to need more than just a little bit of good luck to pull this one off. That's where this book comes in.

With nearly a hundred fantastic gig photos, and a ton of info about how to get involved in taking photos like this yourself, you can't go wrong. Buy this book. Grab your camera. Good luck.

Street Photography: London

Street Photography: London Take a Canon EOS 450D. Attach a Canon 50mm f/1.4 lens. Hit the streets of London. See what happens.

Sounds simple - but the results are anything but. Moving, intense, and personal, Street Photography: London is a great collection of the people of London, their passions, and their dreams. Look for yourself!

About

This site is all about learning more about photography, from the incredibly insightful (rarely) to the dreadfully mundane (also, hopefully rarely) via just about everything in between.

If this website seems a little whimsical and random, then that's because the author of this blog, who for the occasion is confusing himself by writing about himself in the third person, is slightly whimsical and random himself.

Enjoy!
