My favorite photo mag
Friday, February 6
Digital Photo Magazine is great! Every month it is packed with skill building helps, creative inspiration and even a CD with teaching resources related to Photoshop and Photoshop Elements.You can purchase it at Books a Million and Barnes & Noble for $11.99. Yes, that is a lot for a magazine, but it is shipped from the UK! But, you get the CD and if you register online there are tons of video lessons for free.
Recent online lessons include: Using flash on a sunny day, white balance, composition and many, many more. You don't have to buy the magazine to access the online material, just register.
Here's the link to the magazine - HERE
Let me know what you think about it.
