If you're an aspiring photographer or someone who loves photography and is looking to learn more, this is the perfect place for you. Follow my journey in completing various photography projects using John Easterby's "150 Projects to Strengthen Your Photography Skills" as my guide.
Back in 2009, I purchased my very first DSLR. I was completely naive to the world of photography until I started shooting random subjects and reading hundreds of articles and blogs online. There is more to it --- You don't just pick up a camera and expect great results. I felt the need for more knowledge on my newly acquired hobby.
Like many other things, I need a solid background if I want to pursue a career in photography. And although I have been teaching myself the art, following Easterby's book might enlighten me on some things I might have missed on my own. It is important to note that this book was a personal preference that I picked up at a local bookstore 2 years ago when I first got my camera. Use/read whatever you think best fits your taste.
The only advice I can give to fellow beginners: Every day is a new day. There is a lot to learn out there for FREE. And most importantly, be open for constructive criticism. Ask for it. Warning: These criticisms are mostly rough and raw; that's how you really want them to come. Take them and learn from them. Improve as you go and have fun.
