Dave’s links of the week, 28 June 2010

And this is what’s been happening in Dave world over the last week and a bit.

Taking macro shots with your phone camera. Not convinced about this. If you try it, let us know!
Some incredible oil-spill based photos from Jane Fulton Alt. Go. Now.
How to get photographic inspiration from writers.
Using very bright light to isolate your subject.
Does wedding photography compromise your other work? Answer: only if you let it.
Some beautiful photographs from China by Eric Guo.
A secret tip for becoming a better photographer: become an editor.

Non-photo things that tickled me this week:

Stuff I’ve been up to:

We visited the Futai Street Mansion. It was lovely. Learned some history.
I shot some of the protest against the ECFA, and posted a story about it to Demotix.
I got told off by Google.
It rained.
I paid for a WordPress theme, paid for Photoshelter but baulked at the last step. Too spendy. For now.
I got some prints made. Some were good.

And my most clicked outbound link?

The pope getting his skirt in a bunch over his Belgians getting busted. Sorry Google, the hate speech continues.

And that’s that for the next week or so. Comments? Hate?
