Better Digital Photography Magazine-Free online

^kkart:iconkkart: reports, 10h 26m ago
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!

Your Darkest Dreams - October 08

=Auriethepixie:iconAuriethepixie: reports, October 30, 2008
Your Darkest Dreams is a monthly feature devoted to sharing dark photography works from DeviantArt. Some of the features already have a large number of favorites, and others are by the same artist, but the point of this feature is less about sharing unknown art and more about inspiring others through the beauty and intricacy of dark art. Often misunderstood as "morbid" or "depressing", Your Darkest Dreams seeks to show this kind of photography in a new way: by showcasing art that is thought provoking, but at the same time unabashedly displays the beauty in darkness.

A Paris Nocturne by William Sharp

Over the lonesome hollows
And secret haunts of the river,
Past field and homestead and village,
Past the grey wharves and the piers
The darkness moves like a veil,
Save when obscure, vast, nigrescent
Flakes from the travelling gloom
Slant westward great fans of blackness.











Then a mist of radiance,
Lamps with red lights and yellow,
Foam-white, and blue as an ice floe,
Lamps intermingling with gas-light,
Leagues of wind-wavered gas-light,
Lamps on the masts of barges,
Lamps upon sloops and on steamers,
Lamps below quays and dark bridges,
Yellow and red and green,
Like a myriad growths phosphorescent,
When a swamp, erewhile flooded with waters,
Lies low to the stare of the moon
And the stealthy white breath of the wind.











And, over all, one light
Palpitant, circular, wide,
Sweeping the city vast--
Yonder, beyond where in shadow
The thronged Champs Elysees are filling
With echoes of human voices,
With shadows of human lives,
With phantoms of vampyre-vices--
Beyond where the serpentine river
Curves in a coil gigantic,
And straight, a thin shaft, through the vagueness
Soars the high lighthouse of Paris,
Soars o'er the sea of the city
With all its shoals and its terrors,
Its perilous straights and its breakers,
High o'er the brightness and splendour
Of shores where the sirens sing ever.











Then, shadows enmassed once again:
And the river moving slowly,
And the hills making darkness deeper.
The lamps now fewer and fewer--
Fewer the red lights and yellow,
Till only a dusky barge
Moves like a water snake
On the face of a dark lagoon,
A stealthy fire 'mid the stillness;
While from a weir in the distance
Comes a sound like the cry of waters
When the tides and the sea winds gather
And the sands of the dunes are scattered
In the scud of the spray.
