I’ve put together a short list of photography resources from around the net. Personally I think getting out there with your camera and experimenting is the best way to learn, but sometimes you need a little motivation or inspiration.
Hopefully these resources will come in handy.

SkillShare
Skillshare is a MOOC site created by like minded creative professionals. Originally focused purely on design the site has expanded to cover a myriad of topics from Photography to cinematography to cooking tips and DIY projects. Most of the worthwhile courses require a premium membership. A new member can join for 99c for the first three months, paying the standard fee of just 9.99 p/m thereafter. This isn’t a site full of small fry either there are some serious contenters here too, featuring well known names such as Seth Godin & Ellen Lupton.
