Thursday’s 13: The book edition

I just finally received my prize for having a digital photograph I took during the 2nd Annual World Wide Photo Walk back in July selected as the best photo from the city of Palm Desert.  In case you have forgotten what that photo looked like or if you are a newbie blog reader, here is that photo:

The book is titled, “The Digital Photography Book: Volume 3” and was written by Scott Kelby.  If you have never heard of Scott, he is a well known Photographer, Author of more than 50 books and he is the President of the National Association of Photoshop Professionals.  You can check him out on his blog: http://scottkelby.com

I thought for this week’s edition of Thursday’s 13, I would go through the Table of Contents and pick out 13 topics discussed in Scott’s book that I am looking forward to reading.  So here goes my list:

  1. The Pro Trick for Better Looking People Shots
  2. One Background, Three Different Looks
  3. Lenses with VR or IS Built In
  4. Shooting at Your Lens’ Sharpest Aperture
  5. The Three Keys to Landscape Photography
  6. Getting More Vibrant Landscapes
  7. They Don’t Always Need to be Smiling
  8. Get Out from Behind the Camera for Kids
  9. Isolate Your Subject for More Impact
  10. Creating Multiple Exposures
  11. Shooting in Tricky Low-Light Situations
  12. What I Pack for a Location Portrait Shoot
  13. Yet Even More Photo Recipes to Help You Get “The Shot”

Do any of these topics interest you?  What would you like to learn about Digital Photography?  You can let me know by leaving your answers to my questions in the comments or if you are shy, you can click on “Got a Question” located on the Navigation Bar up top and submit your question to me that way.

2nd Annual PhotoWalk

As I was going about my day, I came across some information about Scott Kelby’s 2nd Annual PhotoWalk.   Curiosity lead me to discover that someone was nice enough to organize such an event relativey close by in Palm Desert, California.  Even though its being held in July when temperatures easily reach 120 degrees during the day, I am looking forward to this adventure.  And of course I will be sure to post a few of the best pictures of the day on here.  This is a photograpghy blog so its the least I can do!
