Introduction to Training Section

You can learn photography from books, magazines, attending seminars or group sessions or having one to one training. The most effective training is one to one but this is more expensive although far more cost effective.

In this section we have split it into two parts, the first, DIY training, giving you links to information within this website and in many cases forward links from there to find out more. The second part lists other training resources.

To assist you in using this website as a training resource we have structured in effect a course below. Many articles are also grouped around a subject, and some of these have article routes that will lead you through the topic. A number of sections have projects to allow you to get practical experience.

Overtime this will continue to grow and the objective is to get to a point where short of one to one training this is the best training available, and completely FREE.
