[QUOTE="Vixen, post: 357184, member: 21839"] You won't learn it all at once. Things that may be helpful 1. Take photos EVERY day 2. Try picking a style/type of photography eg long exposure water shots, night sky shots, street shots etc and read up on it or watch youtube vids and then go out and practice practice practice until you feel you have nailed it 3. Get on Facebook or 500pix or similar and start looking at other peoples work and share your own. Don't be afraid to ask questions. Also....use the exif data supplied to shots on here to help with settings etc 4. Do a photo challenge be it one week, one month or 365 days....you'll get plenty of support and ideas if you share, share, share and hang out with like minded people 5. Don't be afraid to try the manual mode. Sure you'll get plenty of failures but the more you try the better you will get and the more you will understand how it all works 6. Do that free online course :D 7. Buy magazines and books on photography (plenty of them out there) 8. Keep a notebook with you and write down what you did so if you do nail it you can do it again coz you'll have it all written down All tried and true methods by lots of us snappers :D [/QUOTE]
