Where do I start? greetings..new to BP and needing advise. My photo passion is outdoor/nature..I consider myself a fairly competent hobbyist with my limited resources.I want to be the best I can be but with so many courses available, I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed. Would some of you reviewing my basic gallery and suggesting a good starting point in becoming a better outdoor photo hobbyist?

Hi David, Welcome to BP. The classes here are really great and the instructors very helpful. I can tell you what I think from the class I have taken and I am sure others will chime in. I love Jim Zuckerman's classes he gives great feedback and his critiques hold nothing back. I have taken all of his classes but about 3. William Neill--Inspiring Nature Photography was also really good. I have taken ones from Rob Sheppard, Charlotte Lowrie,Doug Steakley, Kerry Drager and a few others, I have been happy with them all. Happy shooting and take care. Memoriee

I agree with Memoriee and have taken lots of Jims classes. Exposure is the most important in terms of learning the basis of all that IS photography. I used to take a fundamental class like Exposure or Creative shooting and take a Photoshop class at the same time (when I had time to double up) because along with learning to capture an image the way you want to, its also a necessity to process the images with todays software efficiently and the way you want to project the image. I found that taking 2 at the same time usually worked well together and increased my learning curve quickly. Lewis Kempers Toolbox classes are fantastic as well. Have fun, its a wondrous journey and dont forget your tripod :) Cheers, Carlton
