Portrait Photography

If you are interested in the portrait side of digital photography, I recommend www.Pro4um.com. Since I discovered it, both this board and it have been every day reading for me. I gain a wealth of information from both. There is even a section dedicated to those of us who are going to shoot seniors digitally.

Hi Tom,

I've been busy looking into the same thing.

A couple of people pointed me to:
http://www.zuga.net/zuga/home/ieset.htm

Browse around that site, there's quite a lot of information (including a 14-chapter online book) talking about portraits, lighting, etc. A *lot* of information.

Let me know if you find some other good ones.

Thanks for the link Don!

Really enjoying the site. Lots of good info on portraiture. Trying to round out my techniques into portraits. Although, I still really enjoy landscape and wildlife best. This excellant site looks like it explores all aspects of photography.

Mr. Galbraith, YES YES YES, I agree, it would be great to have a "Pro-Digital Portrait" section with the D30.......

Let's do it !!!!!!!

For those that have been contributing to this topic , I give a big thanks. The thread that Noel gave has been very good and I would recommend others to check it out.

Hey, Ron and Noel, are you actually printing images larger than 20x24 from the D30. What about a group shot of a large family for instance? How is the detail in the faces etc. Is Genuine Fractals required?

Thanks in advance,

Tom Coles
