Eww, what is this!?! I've started spamming my account with photography? Do not fear! There will be drawing on the way!

We're most of the way through a photography 'taster' in college. Though it appears they do not wish to teach us anything to do with photography in that time period. More like a 2 week course of doing photographer artist studies rather than fine artists.

Thus I'm sorry for the amaturist images. I bought myself my camera recently and feel that its something that needs to be in harmony with my fine art work if I'm to progress. My own images, when I learn to construct them as I wish, would be worth tenfold of the reproduced copyrighted-mass media images that flood this place.

Technical skill is one thing. Creation is another.

Oh and I'd love to hear any photography tips :D *blunders his way through this so called 'art' course* (I typed curse, not course, perhaps it would have been more fitting.)
