The British Journal of photography is a print magazine that
showcases photographers, new projects and any news in the wonderful world of
photography. In my degree, I loved looking through the printed journals in uni
and the website for inspiration and research. It was a huge part of my degree
because I wouldn’t have found half the photographers I love if it wasn’t for
this journal.
Surprisingly, I didn’t know they had a blog! Now I’ve
discovered it, I love it too. It’s a blog, so they have to keep everything
really simple and mainly post links to new up and coming photographers,
exhibitions and there are some video blogs too. I think this a great blog for
teaching cause it will keep you up to date with the world of photography, but
not only that it will give you fresh ideas for lessons, it will give info about
exhibitions you might want to take students too and it will also keep giving
you inspiration for new work.
Tumblr is another great blogging site anyway. It allows you
to re-post things from another Tumblr to your own. So you can build up a
collection of great resources. I would definitely recommend this to other
photographers, students and teachers!
