I love Digital Photography School. It has a variety of tips and interviews and challenges. Beginners and pros alike should check it out.

Generated from our catalog & community — verify before relying on it.
A few widely recommended places to start are:
- Digital Photography School: beginner-friendly articles, tips, challenges, and interviews.
- Strobist: especially useful if you want to learn lighting and off-camera flash. Its Lighting 101 and Lighting 102 series are often suggested as a solid starting point.
- DPReview: a strong resource for camera and lens reviews, plus active forums.
- Thom Hogan and Ken Rockwell: popular personal photography/gear sites, though they tend to be more Nikon-focused overall.
If you're just starting out, a good approach is to use one general learning site for fundamentals, one lighting-focused resource, and one review site for gear research. For example: Digital Photography School for basics, Strobist for flash/lighting, and DPReview for comparing cameras and lenses.
