Welcome!

This is my blog for Tom Houston Photography. My aim here is to help share knowledge. I have been fortunate enough to know some very smart and helpful photographers who have helped me a lot with my photography. This blog is how I want to return the favour, give back and help out others.

I hope you enjoy,

Tom

Update: Magazines (Beginners)

Hey,

So I just purchased the Digital SLR photography's magazine which is the "Getting Started in Digital Photography.  I believe I have passed the whole "getting started" phase I hope however there are always things you miss (especially when you are self taught).  Personally I just focus on genres and not photography as a whole sometimes.  So I read everything the Web has to offer on Marco photography and then cram that all in my head.  However I just learned not too too long ago about cross vs linear AF points from my last housemate.  So I know a boat load of technical stuff for Macro Photography but never knew what the two kinds of AF points do.

So if you find yourself in the same boat, I suggest this magazine.  Some of it went over the exposure triangle things that I did.  And I knew 99% of it but I either forgot some things or they said it in a way I will remember better.  Knowledge is a continual thing.  Don't forget that.
