Squashy Frog Photography gets social
August 3, 2008
I’m sure it’s not gone unnoticed that social media, news and bookmarking is a big ol’ thing nowadays. And me being someone not wanting to miss out on anything new on the net I’ve naturally joined in with all the fun. I’ve been slowly building profiles on tonnes of services across the web – some used more than others. If this interests you then for a complete list of my social media profiles have a read of my page titled, “My Social Media Sites“.

Photography-related magazine and newspapers
March 18, 2007
A few links to newspapers and magazines I read:
Newspapers
The Independent
- I’ve never really settled on a newspaper until perhaps recently. I’ve started regularly buying the Independent, don’t say a word. 
In the last few months it has had ‘free’ week-long specials including ‘Improve Your Photography’ and there is the odd ‘Independent Photographer’ supplement in the Web User magazine (of which I’ve only got Part 1 and 3 L). The Independent takes photography very seriously and I expect to see lots of articles and supplements in the future.

Photography training info
March 4, 2007
Here is a bit of info on some training I hope to take at some point. As I work and don’t have the luxury to take time off I’ve opted for the home study option. After a long period of searching the net and obtaining info from all sorts Open College of Arts came out on top.

Why?
January 31, 2007
OK, why this change of direction all of a sudden, well, like everyone, I would like to be in a place where I’m as happy as I can be. Working in an office is good and I get a kick out of producing a report, helping out on projects and of course it pays the bills. But as a long term goal I’m after something more creative, something a bit different…

How to become a professional photographer… hopefully
January 30, 2007
Well I’ve had this blog set-up for months now so I better go ahead and use it, eh? The idea behind it (currently) is to not only use the site as a portfolio (in the future anyway) but also to document my progress from happy snapper to professional photographer or is that just a better happy snapper. Hopefully this’ll help me, as well as anyone else foolish enough to read this, while gaining some expertise in photography and photo-manipulation.
I’ve eager pursue a more creative area. I have two avenues, should I concentrate in getting back into pencil drawing or perhaps into my new interest, photography? I’ve not drawn anything in anger since college and nothing of importance since school (ooh 14 years ago now) but I’m a far better artist than I am a photographer right now so you think I would go down the drawing route, right? Wrong. Photography has surprisingly grabbed a hold on me recently. I’ve never taken an interest in the art, never looked at a photo and thought ‘hey, that’s a really well taken picture’. It’s all changed and now love looking at photography and taking pictures myself. It’s something I feel I can progress with and perhaps take into a future career. Drawing can wait a little bit longer, I know I can draw I just need to be taught the proper technique. What I could do later is combine both photography and drawing by taking photos then reproducing them on a piece of paper. One way or the other, I certainly hope to get some enjoyment out of finding my artistic roots again.
