Over at CRPhotography this month we're talking about Technology V Skill and whether it's more or less important to have skill when undertaking photography, or to have good technology. Or is it a combination of both? Drop your thoughts on the topic in the article found here - DeviantART points for the top response! Leading on from this, 3wyl has posted Post Processing Thoughts which talks about the things to consider whilst embarking on editing your photographs.Also check out 15 Storytelling Photos...

Another article I stumbled across outside of deviantART this week was 21 Photographers that share the best image they ever took. I'm intrigued to know what YOUR best image is, as the collection in that article is pretty varied. I may put together a feature too. What's the best photo you think you ever took? Below is mine...And why? Because it's raw. Emotion was captured plain and simply and the occasion, whilst incredibly sad, spoke volumes. That's what I think anyway. It's not technically perfect, but sometimes that doesn't matter.
