I have found Twitter to be a great resource for photography information, inspiration and education. I tend to collect things on the Internet. I have thousands of bookmarks and, with Twitter, I have a lot of Favorite tweets saved now, too. Here are some I thought you would find of interest. Oh, and if you are on Twitter, why don’t you follow me at @sthomasphotos.
Here are three short and informative articles to improve your photography. Enjoy!

Humboldt Penguins getting up close to each other. Getting close and filling the frame is one way you can improve your photography overnight.
I agree, Twitter is my favorite resource for finding photography related material. Using Tweetdeck has made it a whole lot easier too.

Thanks Scott for the links, I’ve learned a lot just by reading photographer’s blogs and when they tell the image setting is very helpful also.

Thanks for the links, Scott. So admire people who focus on learning all they can about photography. If I have a choice to read photography tips and writing tips, I almost always gravitate toward the writing tips, darn it!
I have been catching up on your blogs…looking through at all the wonderful photographs. So many great ones! I especially loved the clouds, the bighorn rams (sheep?) and these penguins are really precious.
Hope your summer is going well. Looks like you’re getting into a lot of sports action. 🙂

Summer has been busy so far, Kathy. The bighorns are sheep but males are called rams.
I am trying to balance reading and writing photography tips. If I don’t read about them, I’ll end up with no more tips to write about. 🙂

Just checked out those links but a couple of the tips in the 2nd article confused me. Could you possibly clarify when you have a moment? “Use negative space” and “avoid merges” were the ones that stumped me a bit.

Great picture of the penguins – I have just come back from my “summer-break” in Greece and Denmark – and am looking foreward to read more from you about better photography. So there might be some posts about travel photography……!

Thank you for the links Scott. Your tip of getting up close and filling the frame is the best. It’s one I’ve often used over the years with my art students.
I wonder what that penguin was whispering…
