Speaking of Photography...

Thanks to some coupons and store-closing sales, I have aquired some new photography books... I had them stacked in the corner of my desk with the owner's manual for my new camera (BTW, did I mentioned I got a new Canon 60D). This past weekend I finally got tired of just looking at them so I started reading.


Actually, some of these will more likely just end up on my bookshelf and used for reference (they aren't meant to be read cover to cover), but I will at least flip through all of the pages first:


  • Taking Stock: Make money in microstock creating photos that sell
    This is the book I started reading first. I have been told by so many people that my photos are good... Really good... So I started looking into the many sites available online for selling them. When I saw this book, I figured it couldn't hurt to learn a little more about selling those pictures. This book was very inforamative! The manin thing I have learned is that, while my pictures might be good, they are mostly night right for microstock site. :-( But, now I know what kind of pictures to take to try my hand at selling them.
  • The Photography Bible
    I got a great deal on this book at a Borders bookstore that was going out of business.
  • photo jojo
    Katie actually found this book hiding on a shelf at the same Borders I mentioned above. When she decided she wasn'y going to buy it, I snatch it up! It just looked like a really fun book with some fun photo projects. Plus, who can resist the picture of the puppy on the cover?
Oh boy... I wonder if I will even have time to read all of the other books I bought! :-)
