Photography resources of all kinds
Links to other photography websites to help you with your studies
We will compile an ever expanding list of resources from the World Wide Web here, with the occasional reference to analog references such as books. Contact us if you want to add your photographic resource here.
We will also put any downloadable or online notes you might need here. The downloadable notes, take the form of pdf files, all computers have a reader built into them that allow you to print and read these notes.
Since this page was originally written several years ago, web links and other current information, are now stored over at the student noticeboard, or alternatively on my delicious page, which I am happy to add to for you if you want. Only the odd downloadable file will be added here in the future. Notices as to when this happes are posted on the pic blog.
