Hey gang, welcome to Monday, July 21st. Today is an exciting day for several reasons, both personally and professionally: First of all, unless traffic falls precipitously, today Canon Blogger will go over the 60,000 mark in terms of number of visitors! I am both honored and flattered to have been the source of such interest ...
tutorialHere’s a few tidbits for you this Friday – I am literally running out the door for a “last supper” with some famiyl friends before we leave for Colorado next week. So, the post today is expectedly short. Call it the “Fantastic Four for Friday!” Don’t forget, the Canonblogger Photo Contest. Join the Flickr group, ...

This is actually part of a larger work I am putting together, called 101 Sources of Inspiration.

Articles, thoughtsSo, any guesses for the latest edition of “What’s This?” Last week, the crop was from some fancy ornate crown molding in a capture from an old plantation house here in SC. It was kind of a stretch as I was pulling from my portfolio, rather than taking a shot specifically with the weekly theme ...
tutorialAs I thought about the tutorial for today, I pondered doing a quick set of tips for Photoshop, like CTRL+J for a duplicate late, CTRL=ALT+SHift+E to stamp all visible layers on to a new layer, and other such trinkets. While debating which ones to include I was continuing the process of winnowing down the last ...
Adobe, Lightroom, Photoshop, tips and tricksI was catching up on some recent photo magazines and the August issue of Shutterbug had a pretty cool picture. The theme was “Letters”, and people were taking pictures of various letters of the alphabet. Erica Ellis had a very interesting capture, shown below: The challenge here was to see how many letters of the ...

Hello and welcome to Canon Blogger. So, what is this place really all about? So glad you asked! Canon Blogger is all about sharing. Sharing insights and experience from a photographer, blogger, an IT Professional for nearly ten years now, and most importantly, an educator! My name is Jason Anderson and I am the host of CB. I have been working with photography in various capacities for about seven years now.
As the name of the blog suggests, you probably know that my gear is based on the Canon family, specifically the EOS line. Don't worry though, as I have dabbled with Nikon, Pentax, and dating back to my youth, even the Vivitar line (specifically a 110 film camera), so content here is designed to be as device-agnostic as possible so everyone can get something from what I am sharing!
My goal is to share my experiences and thoughts on photography as I learn about it in hopes of helping those who have had, are having, or expect to have similar experiences, thoughts, and insights. After all, learning is all about sharing insights and perspectives. We can't learn if we aren't wiling to listen to others! If you like to learn about photography, whether it's be listening, reading, or just sharing experiences, then Canon Blogger is just the place for you!
So, welcome to the blog! Welcome to my website! Welcome to my own little corner of the internet where I share my own thoughts, perspectives and experiences on photography. Whether that comes in the form of gear reviews, in-depth articles, even contests and newsletters, all is aimed at helping others learn all about photography and the passion that can (and does surround) it as a truly inspirational form of expression! Join me in the adventures!
