Photo Tip for today

Look at photos every day. The web makes it easy.
Have a look at these eight photographers.
Copy the style of the ones you like for a day or two.

Joan & Edith
Michael Singer
Andrew Wheeler
Pete Cutter
Cristy Cumberworth
Fletcher
Robert Leon
Bill Bowden

And then study these pages the feature groups of photographers. You will need a lot of time.

Masters of Photography
Do take the time to look at all the Masters. They are why we are here. My favorites are W. E. Smith, Gordan Parks, and Dorthea Lange.

Photo Essay
Look at the project done by the contest winners listed down the left side of the web page.

Documentary Photography
Look at the pages and blogs of the photographers listed two thirds down the center of the page. These are folks who call themselves documentary photographers. Decide for yourself who's work is interesting and who's is well ordinary.

Fraenkel Gallery
Go to the bottom of the first page after entering the site. Click on the list of artist. Have a look at the work of each.
