Travel and Photography links
Travelogs are all the rage. I like them but they have to have a twist, I need an interest. A random travel book about Italy is not going to appeal. I blame “Round Ireland with a Fridge”:http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0091867770/026-7013568-6142066
Anyway, “Emergency Exit”:http://www.emergencyexit.net/ is the website of some people who jacked it all in and went round the world. They took beautiful photographs and wrote insightful reports of where they were. Sadly, I’ve had this in my bookmarks for so long, they’ve run out of money and have gone home.
“Notes From the Road”:http://www.notesfromtheroad.com/ is another travel photography site worth looking at. More of a story board with pictures than a travel guide.
“World Press Photos”:http://www.worldpressphoto.nl/index.jsp has some amazing and award winning photographs. The last thing I expected to see in the Children’s award section was a soldier’s worried stare looking at me from under a truck in Kabul. In fact, it was no soldier, but a boy. The trailer next to the boy looked just like a rifle.
Finally, O’Reilly has the “Top Ten Digital Photography Tips”:http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2002/10/22/digi_photo_tips.html but I doubt any will help me very much.
