Writing a book!

Posted by Haje Jan Kamps

Hi all,

A while ago, a publisher asked me if I wanted to write a book on a topic within Photography. I’m terribly excited and humbled, and I can’t wait to get started properly.

Of course, this means that I won’t have quite as much time to update Photocritic over the next couple of days, but I still hope to manage an update every third to fourth day or so :)

I’m hyped to shreds about this project! I will probably need a bit of help from some of you guys over time (Here’s your chance to have some photos published, perhaps?!), but I can’t divulge too much at this time - I haven’t even signed any contracts or anything yet, although I’m reasonably certain it is going though.

Stay tuned, as they say on radio. Perhaps I should say “stay bookmarked”, instead…

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!
