There are several mags which can offer useful tutorials on technique and such. However, if you want to SEE good photography in action, pick up a mag whose focus, no pun intended, is on your desired area of study. For example, the acknowledged master in landscape and nature is Arizona Highways. Nat Geo is, as usual, great for all around photography. The only two I sub to are OP and AH, because 95% of my work is outside.

The best learning source is probably Kelby training for $20 a month you get access to thousands of books and videos. A the same price point as magazines, Photovision has a DVD subscription that follows pros as they work, hours of coverage per issue. With a discount code from one of their sponsors, you can get an annual subscription for $49.

CHECH THIS OUT.
Stock photography is fun, they all say. And it’s something you can
start doing this weekend with minimal equipment.
All you need is a camera and something to photograph, with a little
know-how about what it is that’s selling right now in the stock
world...and some photo-editing techniques to get your photo up to par.
Today I'm in the back of the room listening to professional stock
photographers Shelly Perry, Andrea Gingerich, Danny Warren, and Lise
Gagne.
Professional photographer Shelly Perry showed us a list of the top 15
photos that have been the best sellers at iStock in the last three
months.
They're all squares and horizontals, Shelly pointed out. And when she
looked back through her own portfolio, she found that to be true for
her, as well -- her square and horizontal images outsell her
verticals.
So what does that mean if you're interested in selling your photos to
online stock photo agencies?
Does it mean you should only take horizontal photos?
Of course not. AS Shelly said, if it's worth taking a photo once,
it's worth taking it twice, once as a horizontal and once as a
vertical. You have no idea how a photo buyer will use your image.
After all, magazine covers are all vertical, lots of picture frames
are vertical, and websites often use vertical images to illustrate
their needs, too.
Here are some of Shelly Perry’s best-selling images, both horizontal
and vertical… http://tinyurl.com/687xnha
Stay tuned tomorrow for a few pictures our attendees are getting here
in Portland at the event. And go here for recordings of everything
they’re learning:
