|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Must Follow Photo Blogs? Paul Hayes, Photographer, Photo Editor Littleton | NH | USA | Posted: 3:17 PM on 08.18.11 ->> I'm looking for interesting blogs (or whatever internet format is popular now) done by individual photographers. I want to get a better sense of how other people approach their work, gain access, frame their shots, use lighting, see the world through their camera, etc. etc. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. - Paul  This post is:  Informative (1) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I've been slacking lately, but with football upon us I will be kicking it into gear again. For now though you can access all entries from 2007 through the Brewers home opener this year. Mostly sports photography related, but it does touch on other things (such as lighting) here and there.
