Hello, I am looking to gain some more experience with photography and was wondering if anyone was available to share some information? I have been taking photos since I was 10 and am really looking to be pushed to better my work. I would really appreciate any help or information. Thank you!

    Your best bet is probably looking for local real-world resources, rather than looking here for local folks...

    Go to the nearby Jr.College(s), check out their photography classes, art classes, etc. There's also likely to be *physical* bulletin-boards, notices, etc. Same with camera-stores. Both chains and the better local-independents will offer classes, seminars, etc.

    Note that a good drawing class can OFTEN teach a HUGE amount about the *art* of photography; composition, pos/neg space, static/dynamic, etc... the *craft* (the techniques and gear, etc) are of course different than pencil/pen/charcoal/pastel/etc drawing media! ;-)

    Go to stopshootingauto.com and check out Patti's stuff there -- she's a great resource!
