PhotoGuides

Today I’m very excited to announce the launch of the PhotoGuides Forum. It’s an addition that I’m hoping will revolutionise PhotoGuides, but we need your help to make it work!

A new year is in the loom and throughout the world people are deciding what they want to change for the year ahead. So what should us photographers aim to change? Here are 10 resolutions that can help us all become better photographers in 2011.

It’s taken 4 months of casual, procrastination filled work, but the PhotoGuides book is finally here. The PhotoGuides Guide to Photography is a complete guide for the beginner photographer.

It’s been a fairly intense month, but I’m pleased to say that I’ve now finished my exams thereby completing my high school education. More importantly though, it’s good to be back and finally have some time to spend on PhotoGuides.

As I write this I’ve been awake for over 42 hours, and needless to say I’m a little bit tired. Over the past two days my life has taken on the biggest transformation that I could ever have imagined. I’ve graduated from High School and it seems that I’m too tired to quite realise it.

Firstly, thank you everyone for the amazing entries. I really have been blown away by the quality of some photographs as well as the stories behind them. There can only be one winner though, and I think one particular photograph is very deserving of the Photography theme from The Theme Foundry.

Share your favourite photo and you could win this stunning Wordpress Photography theme courtesy of The Theme Foundry. It’s a beautiful theme designed to showcase your photography with elegant galleries, a blog and rich large images right across the website.

For the past two weeks on PhotoGuides we’ve been giving you the chance to win 1 of 3 Bokeh Masters Kits. Today, I’m very excited to announce the results of the competition!

We’re giving you the chance to win one of three Bokeh Masters Kits, the kit that lets you photograph bokeh and transform it into all kinds of cool shapes. It’s easy to enter. Just retweet to win!

‘Tilt Shift School’ is a short film I put together for my media class at school. It’s based in the Year 12 common room, and it basically just shows everyone chatting, laughing and playing around in front of the camera. It’s a fun little film.
