On cell phone photography (and a bit on DSLR): linkbun.ch/immh. Before you get a DSLR, you should learn about macros, depth of field, ISO, et cetera. A great place to do that is camerasim.com:
Sorry it goes off the area for posting, you'll have to forgive me.
On your rights as a photographer: http://linkbun.ch/iron
Great overall sites:
- From my favorite blog: http://www.abeautifulmess.com/photography-tips-and-inspiration.html
- http://digital-photography-school.com/
A few tips:
- Be like me and once you find out about something (like depth of field) that you didn't know about before, search it up! Your current sucky camera or even your phone may have that function. (Especially if its an iPhone which I am in LOVE with. Sigh)
- Before I looked up cell phone photography tips, I didn't even know about the rule of thirds, aperture, ISO, or things like that. If I got a DSLR, like I wanted to, I probably would have been stuck in auto just like with my current point and shoot.
- Look up different camera types. Not all DSLRs are professional cameras. You might not even need a DSLR, maybe you just need a compact/bridge camera (more megapixels and optical zoom than a point and shoot, no interchangeable lenses and easier to use than a DSLR) or just a point and shoot. Consider your needs and what you'll use the camera for.
- When you decide what camera to use, try snapsort.com
- Get some sort of account on which you can share your photos (Instagram, Flickr, Facebook, et c.)
- Lastly, and the most cliche, have buttloads of fun exploring! xoxo. Ife
