The Path to Enlightenment

Zero to Pro - Photo Blog 3


I am certain that the learning curve which will take me to the height of professional photography will be steep but I am determined to enjoy the assent. 

I, therefore, thought it best to study in a way that suits and inspires me.  I enjoy formal education as I respond well to structure but it’s not always fun.  I love the idea of being self-taught; educating yourself through experimentation, but the process can be slow and somewhat frustrating. 

So, I have opted for an ‘Online Education’ this time round, where I have a classroom full of inspirational resources that is always open and where anyone who knows anything about photography can be my teacher. 

I will of course, additionally, read books and consider taking classes that are recommended to me by those of you out there in the know...professionals, amateurs and enthusiasts alike. 

Ultimately, the dream scenario is to be given the opportunity to watch some of you at work in the real world, I realise that distance learning will only take me so far!

In the meantime, I’ll be out there with my camera putting everything I can learn here into practise.
