The Blogs I Read

As the saying goes, “No man is an island”.  And thus, in order to grow as a photographer, a photographer must have sources of inspiration to draw from in order to understand the state of his or her craft.

Over the past year or two I have been reading several blogs in order to keep my mind connected to the changing world of photography. While some may say that a creating a list of photography books would be more preferable (since sites like these have lists of books created or about the fabled photographic master) at the moment, books are a bit too expensive for me and I will be accumulating those at a snails pace. Plus, by listing blogs I’m keeping up with our modern times.   Below I’ve broken down the sites that I read  based each blog’s dominant subject matter.
