Time to throw the ball around

It has been a little while since I last posted, probably because I haven't had much to post lately. It has been a busy time, but I have been really pursuing through other blogs lately.

One notable blog that has captivated me for hours at a time, is Strobist.

I believe the person who maintains the site is a photojournalist with the Baltimore Sun. I tell you, the information that is posted onto that blog, is gold! Never have I learned more about off-camera lighting than reading that blog. I use to wince at the idea of using a flash, but am now just counting down the days when I can afford a good set up. Which also brings up the point, that they have countless links to other sites that can be just as helpful.

Another blog that has caught my eye, is one of Hanford Sentinel Chief Photographer Apolinar Fonseca. He posts on his experiences on shooting for a daily and also has some very good links.

Joe Hollak
is another great blog. I truly feel that this journalist/student/bloger is a big reason why I have grown as a photographer and journalist. He currently attends California State University, Fresno and is the Multimedia Editor for The Collegian.
His blog is full of great posts on the ever-changing world of journalism and is really big on multimedia. He also has some great links as well.

Well, these are actually the three main blogs I frequent, and then I tend to branch off from them through links on their sites. Make sure to check out what they have to say, and be sure to leave comments.
