What is 'iTunes U'?

Well first of all you do need to have a computer and to be on the internet (if your reading this then I think we can assume you are already there), then you need iTunes and away you go. Here is what Apple have to say:

"Learn anything, anytime, anywhere - iTunes U — a powerful distribution system for everything from lectures to language lessons, films to labs, audiobooks to tours — is an innovative way to get educational content into the hands of students."

It seems to be growing fast and Photography is well covered and getting better, AND BEST OF ALL, FREE! - for the time being, anyway lots to explore.

I've recently been reading a book about architectural photography that recommends getting a tripod head with a vice grip for attaching to bannisters etc...

I don't currently have a tripod so am looking into getting a decent one but can't find any details of heads with vice grips.

The demand for darkrooms has been declining as photographers have moved to digital. However, Photofusion believes public access to darkrooms remains an import resource for artists, students and anyone who might be interested in starting a fun, creative hobby.

A number of people aren't aware how easy it is to get started in a darkroom. In an attempt to reach these people Photofusion is offering a special offer for May:

Intrigued by the possibilities of the image in the digital age, Tim Hetherington has evolved a documentary practice that both harnesses and looks beyond the still photograph. He will discuss and share his diverse work, ranging from visual communication and digital projection to fly-poster exhibitions and handheld device downloads.

Tim Hetherington was this year's winner of the Sundance Film Festival Documentary Award for Restrepo, a film about US soldiers in Afghanistan. This is a second major win for Hetherington as he won World Press Photo of the Year in 2007 for his picture of an exhausted soldier resting after a day of heavy fighting at the Restrepo outpost.

Two 5-day intensive workshops lead by Magnum photographers Donovan Wylie and Olivia Arthur. There are spaces for 10 participants in each, aimed at professionals or advanced amateurs with a good understanding of photographic practices. There will be daily reviews, group critiques, mentoring and editing sessions. Participants will work to develop their own individual visual language, photographic identity and practical, technical and conceptual skills required to compete in the ever-changing marketplace

Donovan’s workshop will concentrate on documenting urban spaces and their populations, and successful candidates will work under his expert guidance to build a new body of London-focused work.

Olivia’s women-only workshop will give ten female photographers the chance to develop their individual visual language and really boost their portfolio in this heavily male dominated industry.

Both workshops are based in teaching rooms at UCL’s central London campus, with good transport links enabling participants to travel easily around the city.

3-7 May inclusive
from 9.30–6pm each day
Tuition £550 plus VAT

My name is Herman James and I am Co-director of climate/gallery in New York. I am writing to invite the members of the society
to submit photographs to climate/gallery’s exhibition

Opening reception: January 9th, 2010

The gallery is extremely interested in finding photographers who employ alternate photographic process for this exhibition.

Our Open Call for this exhibition is online at [www.climategallery.com]

We are pleased to announce, and very honored to have as our ‘judge’ for our Best in Show awards:

Bonni Benrubi, Bonni Benrubi Gallery in Manhattan

Ms. Benrubi is one of the foremost photographic arts dealers in the world.

The exhibition is not juried. Rather, we will take all of the fine photographers from the society who care
to submit and will include them in the exhibition. We offer special consideration to the society on our ‘jury’
fee that, once submitted through our site, counts as a reserved place for the submitting photographer.

The PayPal link provided here may be used by your members to submit to the exhibition by payment of $35.
The fee for individuals is $40. By offering this discount we hope that members of the society will submit
individually or as a group. Also, we offer to include the society’s name or logo in all of our promo and we
will hang the work of the members on the wall together.

My work as an experimental snapshot photographer lends itself to collections, themes and a general feeling of spontaneity - rather than single images. I obviously have many that I'm proud of, but none that 'sum up' my folio or represent my body of work! maybe i'm taking it all too seriously and am too eager to impress...a failing of mine.
Thoughts? anyone else's first meet and feeling the same?

John Beatty is widely acclaimed as one of the most exciting and stimulating nature, travel and adventure photographers to have emerged in recent years, his multimedia presentations receiving accolades from the media, the public and from leading brands in the photographic industry.

Over the last 27 years, John has adventured to 38 countries always returning with stories of his experiences of the wilderness which few have encountered. He has been to the Himalayas, the Pacific Islands, East Africa, the American Deserts, the Galapagos Islands and the Andes, Namibia, Alaska, the European Alps and has photographed almost all the wild land locations in Britain from the windswept tors of Cornwall to white strands of the Outer Hebrides. He spent 4 years working as a stills photographer with David Bellamy and has worked on advertising campaigns with leading brands in the outdoor design & manufacturing sector, also supplying photographs to Getty Images for worldwide corporate advertising and features.

As well as being a fantastic photographer, John is also a captivating and inspiring storyteller and Wild Vision is a chance to hear about his extraordinary life. As he explains, his work aims to capture “the timeless rhythms of the natural environment, its beauty and simplicity, and man’s place within it”. Wild Vision promises to be a fantastic audio-visual presentation which will leave audiences infused with energy and wonder at the beauty of our planet.

Tom Stoddart began his photographic career on a local newspaper in his native North-East of England. In 1978 he moved to London and began working freelance for publications such as the Sunday Times and Time Magazine.

During a long and varied career he has witnessed such international events as the was in Lebanon, the fall of the Berlin Wall, the election of President Nelson Mandela, the bloody siege of Sarajevo and the wars against Saddam Hussein in Iraq. In 1997 Tony Blain gave Stoddart exclusive behind the scenes access to his election campaign, as Labor swept to victory after 18 years of Conservative government. His recent extensive work on the catastrophic AIDS pandemic blighting Africa has been widely published and exhibited.

Now established as one of the worlds most respected photojournalists, Stoddart is represented by, and works closely with Getty Images, to produce powerful photo-essays on the serious world issues of our time.
