About beginning photographers-learning

Welcome to a group of beginners, run by a beginner. We're all beginners here, some of us are further along, others are just starting out.

Please feel free to post photos to the pool and join in the discussions! Everyone is welcome.

We also have two challenges going on at all times. There is an icon competition, where members of the group vote to choose the new icon for the next four weeks. The other is a challenge for you as an individual to broaden your horizons, and to try some new shots. Every month there are new photos to try and capture.

We have many younger members in this group too. For that reason there is strictly no "provocative" pictures here. See the rules here.

For those of you who are interested in expanding your horizons, or reading up on photography, here's where I have been posting online photography information: www.flickr.com/groups/beginning_photographers/discuss/721... There is some links to interesting projects to try, and some photography background pages.


If you have the time, you can comment on other pictures in the pool, to let other people know that you like their work.

Your picture has been nominated for the next beginning photographers-learning group's icon competition!



If you get a nomination for the icon competition you may post that photo in any OPEN icon competition. Each photo may only enter a competition once. Icon Competitions are normally open for about two weeks, and then the photos are voted on. The winning photo gets to be the group icon for about two weeks. Any person who does not vote will have their photos disqualified from the competition. As well, feel free to vote even if none of your photos are in the competition, this is your group and your icon.
