Better Digital Photography Magazine-Free online

^kkart:iconkkart: reports, November 26
From the Publishers of "What Digital Camera" and "Amateur Photographer", IPC Media today has announced a new online photography magazine, "Better Digital Photography" that people can read free and fully online, it is also interactive with embedding video tutorials from the magazine and mouse-over tips. Aimed at the entry and intermediate level photographer, it is heavily devoted to equipment and technique-focused photography content.

From the IPC Media website:

Publishing director Alex Robb says: “This is an exciting and innovative new venture for the photo portfolio. The editorial team have worked incredibly hard to create bespoke content, including technique videos and other interactive content. I am delighted that we have secured distribution to around two million photographers to ensure that as many people as possible benefit from the excellent tips and advice. Better Digital Photography is a further indication of how IPC continues to innovate in this competitive sector.”

Editor Mat Gallagher adds: “We wanted to create a product that helps the reader expand their knowledge, while being easy to use. It is thanks to the talents of art editor Steve Crabb that we have managed to produce such a visually stimulating and accessible magazine that surpasses anything else in the market place.”


My thoughts, this is downright awesome and VERY well done, it is like looking at an actual magazine, but the fact that it has videos embedded within for tips, tutorials, and techniques, make this even better! You can also subscribe for free, via email for upcoming issues, make personal notes within the magazine, and download a copy to your hard drive. GO GET IT!

What is Conceptual Photography?

`Pete-B:iconPete-B: reports, March 15, 2008
Its all about the idea.

In the Conceptual Photography gallery here on deviantART the only images that should be posted are those where the concept for the image came before the image was made..

The original artistic idea is much more important than the physical image that portrays it. Obviously its important for the photograph to portray that idea in an interesting and understandable way. But its still the idea that comes first.

The ideas themselves do not have to be about the mysteries of the universe. They can be smaller and much more personal than that. But they must have been thought up prior to an image being created to express them.

This doesn't mean you have to spend hours or days thinking about a photograph in order for it to be a great image. For most photography we conceive an idea for the shots that we take from the things that we see and come across. But these shots are not specifically conceptual as they have not been planned out and have instead been created by taking the right opportunity. A wide landscape shot across rolling hills with a random lone person standing staring out into the distance may portray loneliness and beauty and this idea may have been conceived before the shot was taken. But it has more of a home in the Landscape Gallery. This does not mean the image has any less merit, as Conceptual photography is no less or more important than any other form of photography.

Please keep this in mind and help keep the CP gallery free of miscats and packed full of great concepts.
