We’ve talked a lot about various rules of composition – what they are (Rule of Thirds, Golden Mean, etc) and when to adhere versus eschew them to create dramatic effect. One thing we’ve not talked much about is the idea of changing your angle of view. We have mentioned the concept in the past, suggesting ...
composition, Creativity, News, personal, photography, potdAs in anything, there are terms often bandied about under the presumption that we all know what the term means, what it refers to, and how to do it! Living with such blinders on is often dangerous and I fell victim to it recently when I gave someone an answer about hosting their photos online ...
NewsOver the weekend in between packing and moving boxes, I spent a little time with the Twitterverse and had a chance to get some fun dialogs going. One of the questions posed was “Camera body aside, what are the must have essentials for you in your camera bag?” My answer was my two filters, the ...
Flickr, gearAs Friday draws to a close, lots is going on here – we’re packing up! That’s right packing things up and rolling on outta here! Naw, not the blog, or the podcast – always here, but with my return to a full time position we realized two things: 1. We were kind of living beyond ...
Learning Digital Photography Podcast, tips and tricksBelieve it or not, people have asked me in the past to give links out to some of my preferred vendors for things like books, gear, and other photography-related items. Since I don’t like to single out vendors usually, I’ll tell people to find the best deal nearest them so that they don’t have to ...
NewsWell, I ran out of time to compile the podcast segments in the day, so figured I would answer another listener question via blog post today. The question came in inquiring how I produced video, and what my recommendations are. While this is a great question, especially given the trend towards convergence between still and ...

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!
