Macro Photography Photo Workshop
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
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
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!
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!

I wish i could have choosen two because it would have been photojournalism as well as macro of objects 9not nature in particular)
I went with street. My greatest joy is wandering around this city with my camera in hand and just capturing whatever happens to be going on. It’s wondrous.
re Brian’s comment: Haje, check out some of his macro stuff. His toy soldier work in particular is fantastic. They evoke a mood of WWII-era photojournalistic shots, and it’s done using ten cent green army men.

My next goals are to explore concert photography and nude photography. I’m thankful for the fact that I have no shortage of unshy and gorgeous friends so that I’ll get a chance to try the second one. The first is tricky, I never want to bring my camera to a show I’m actually interested in and I can never get the motivation to go to a show that I’m not interested in.
Suggestions? I know you’re hip with the concerts.
