TalkPhotography in the "Guide to Photography", free in The Guardian, Saturday 27th!!

Excellentay :).
 
This is a great week, I'm waiting for my first proper camera, (Canon 300d, from Steveinspain), the internet is free in this hotel, and now TP,s in the news. :woot:

How many of us will buy the Guardian for the first time in our lives. :lol:

Well done TP, admin, mods and members. :clap: This forum deserves all the recognition it gets. I'm mighty pleased I found it. :)
 
Hello

I read about photography in the guardian today, so I bought a 5D and 24-105 lens.

How do I turn on the self timer?
What zoom does my lens have? Is it better than my friends 12x zoom camera?

yay us!

Well done guys!!

Glad I got a seat before the rush. ;)

Well done to all you guys, it took me a good while scouring the web before I decided that TP looked like a good place to develop my technique. Glad that the Guardian has realised it as well.
 
Expect harder critique than normal that week . I was getting a bit soft there for a while :lol:


This is probably as good a time (and thread) as any to add for the record that TPF has helped me get back on my photographic horse and I have valued all the help, criticism and bargains (I am Scottish) that this forum has provided.

On another note perhaps some of the guys that have wandered off might make a return. In no particular order I particularly miss Sie's landscapes, Chris's witticisms and Marcel's avatar when it wasn't him that was in it. :D

Well done guys :clap:
 
Congratulations everyone especially the staff :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
 
Congrats admin for making it a friendly and nice place to be!

Good luck everybody! Action stations! To your positions!
 
Fantastic news - and very well deserved imo! :woot:

Big pat on the back to all the admin/mod bods especially, but also to "us lot," for making TP such a nice place to be. :clap:

Watch that members list grow...!:eek::lol:
 
:agree: and possible caviar for all as you will now be raking in the dough ;)
 
I tried to buy it this week, a tad early! :bonk: roll on next weekend! :woot:
 
:coat:


:p :p :p
 
Congrats all, especially the chaps running this fine site (don't forget to give the hamsters extra grub to power the servers next weekend ;) )
 
A little update on the image submissions mentioned :

The deadline for people to send in their photos to be published in the Guardian and critiqued by famous photographers is Thursday.
 
I was wandering thru the www for info on The Guardian 'freebie' when I came across the address for this forum !

So, it's working already !

Glad to get on before the 'rush' ! :) - if it's worked on me ALREADY - me thinks there will be a good few newbies along with me too ! :D

Sounds fantastic for the forum - great stuff.
 

But of course ! :lol:

Altho - I've been looking for a good photo forum for a while now !
(I'm just a forum 'geek' :geek: :lol: )

That's all good then - let's be forum geeks together ?!
I look forward to perusing thru the forum - learn new things !
PLUS I have a WHOLE HEAP of questions to ask...:help: - lol

But we're going O/T now - *oops*
 
Well I have the Guardian here.

Yes, we're mentioned :D

It's only a small mention, but we're mentioned in the Guardian....that's something alright!
It's a section entitled "Forums - There are numerous forums on the web swapping tips and asking advice; these are our favourite..."
And we're top o the list :D
Actually, looking through the guide, its a very informative read. 100 pages too. :D
 
Cracking achievement Marcel, absolutely cracking.
 
Right just been out and got 'The Guardian' (aren't Saturday papers expensive?!! £1.50!!!) Think I'll sit down with a nice cup of tea and have a look at the guide!

Marcel, will you be signing copies of the guide?!!!

Well done again on getting the website mentioned.
 
I have picked up a copy this morning.

I have had a quick look through it, there are loads of tips & useful advice in it from cameras & gear, basic techniques, expert workshops, processing tips, etc.

As a point & shoot photographer who is looking to buy my first dslr next year, this is a great guide & I must put it somewhere safe for future reference.

Nice one! :clap:
 
Just picked up the Guardian, but no 100 page Guide to Photography...

Did you get the plastic folder with the guardian guide & guardian weekend in your paper? The photo guide was in with these. If not I would get back to the paper shop to get one if you can, I only bought the guardian for the guide myself.
