Sup /p/

/o/ld fag here.

I just got one of this but the only problem is that I don't have any experience in photography.

I really want to lear but I don't have spare time for courses or things like that.

Does /p/ knows about something online where I can learn some stuff?

and, if you're bored, check this one out: http://segv.info/foto#Arty (some links on that page are in Polish, but you should be fine if you only stick to the English ones).


And, finally, my advice:
- Avoid hardware-whores and software-wankers at all costs. You can take grat photos with a fucking can (and some film, of course), you DO NOT NEED a 4000$ camera that your rich neighbour has
- skill yourself up in composition and lightning, look at the famous paintings (Cezane?).
- there is always going to be someboty that will dislike your photos. ignore them, but please don't be a dick and claim your shitty photos as the Art
- you will take shitty photos for at least a year
