I was recently asked what to consume in the way of learning photography. There's a plethora of information out there, I thought I'd write down a healthy list of photographic dietary requirements.

Quick note: this is a work in progress, please add to the comments anything you may find relevant!

  James writes for O'Reilly, on both inside aperture & inside lightroom, seeing as I use the latter, I quite often pick up helpful tidbits, from backup techniques to which color LCD monitor to buy.

• Chase Jarvis (feed)

  Chase occasionally puts up fantastic videos from how to pack gear, to what to buy. But what I really dig are his little pearls of wisdom when coming to the business of photography, that can only come from an experienced photographer.

While all the equipment and technical knowledge is necessary, it won't get you anywhere without creativity and inspiration.
