Tip of the Week - Intro

I'm going to try something new here...And I hope to stick with it! Perhaps you'll learn something, and maybe it'll help me actually remember it :-P

The internet has been an amazing tool for me in both learning the technique behind photographic processes, as well as the means by which to apply that knowledge in a practical manner. For the most part, I plan to distill what I've learned into useful bite-sized chunks, and where credit is due I most certainly will give it. This is information you can probably find on just about any photo site, but hopefully the way I plan to approach the material will be what draws the line between thinking you might understand verses actually seeing the end result.

I want to aim this weekly post toward beginner and amatuer hobbyists who either own a point-and-shoot digital camera, or a digital SLR. If you're overwhelmed by the menu system of your camera and/or can never seem to get consistent shots, I'm hoping this helps!
