Photocritic loves prime lenses. And so should you.

Photographers on Twitter Database

previous article: next article:

Sorry about the twitter-focussed posts as of late; I have been very busy with work (I have to wrap a lot of things up before I’m leaving there to look after Photocritic and being a writer), and I haven’t had much time or energy to do a lot of photography writing.

On the bright side, after the ‘twitter on photography’ thing became so popular, I decided to do a bit of PHP/MySQL magic, and I’ve integrated the list with Twitter itself.

On The fancy automatic version of my ‘photographers on twitter’ page, you’ll find loads of photographers who use Twitter – and the list is your chance to tap into an exciting, active community of some very talented photographers indeed. And the occasional talentless snapper, too, I guess, but I’ll leave it to you to separate the wheat from the chaff.

So, check out the new twitter photographers page here on Twitter. If you check back often, you’ll be glad to know that I’ve given you the option of sorting by most recent, which should make it easier to find only the photographers who’ve been added to the list since the last time you did a sweep.

Finally, if you want to be added to the list, all you need to do is to follow @TwitTogs – within a few hours, the little robot will do its little robot thing, and you’ll appear on the list :)

Follow me!

You can check the latest of my posts in my sidebar, on Twitter, as an RSS feed, or you can follow me by clicking ‘follow’ on the @photocritic page.

Money made from this advert will be invested in prime lenses.
This post, "Photographers on Twitter Database", is part of these categories: All articles, Featured Articles, Meta, Most Popular, was posted by Haje Jan Kamps and saw the light of day on the 9th of May 2009. I hope you liked it.

Crikey, Andrew, you don’t do things by half measures, do you? Fantastic – thanks for contributing!

Everyone: I’ve gone in and edited your comments so they have Twitter links in them, in the cases where you’ve created @photocritic type links. I normally don’t edit my comments, but I figured this was quite a valuable change.

Rock on.

By Andrew Ferguson on March 12th, 2009 (permalink)

Hahaha, yeah I kinda overdid it :P

Thanks for updating the links! I was going to do it, but I just got into the office. Had too much stuff waiting for my attention to go through the process of linking ‘em all.

I’ve been on Twitter for a few weeks now and the initial excitement has worn off. I only use it for things that interest me, so try and find good photographers and photography sites that are on Twitter. However I’m finding it hard to avoid following people who just post the most trivial nonsense about their lives, such as “I’m in Starbucks,” or “Hungry, pizza or chinese?”.

Will give it another week or so but am highly tempted to pack it in. Until then:

By Darron Mark on July 17th, 2009 (permalink)

Well it would seem I still don’t appear on this little list, despite my following you and reading your blogs for sometime. I noted JamesD’s post (above) and to be honest, I enjoy some of the more trivial aspects of peoples lives, it gives them a little more depth. I’m probably less of a fan of those ‘twitters’ that spout inspirational drivel day in day out. Keep up the good work, and I loved the new #tag for #selfportraitfridays… Very good!

Anyway, you can find me on:

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!

- Haje
