Nature's Best Photography Students is a blog and free e-magazine whose mission, to quote the website, is to "create a nature-oriented online publication and media platform that is developed and primarily produced by young, talented, and motivated students who seek to involve and inspire a new generation of outdoor enthusiasts. NBP Students are 21 years of age and younger." Nature’s Best Photography Students is the student version of the award-winning, quarterly magazine,
Nature’s Best Photography."
Unfortunately, it appears that the magazine is not published regularly, but it's free so I'm not really complaining. I use the word "unfortunately" because it's a very nice magazine: informative, colorful, and inspiring (not to mention free!). There have been 13 issues published since it began in 2008 with the last one dated July 2011.
The Table of Contents for the 38 page July issue looks like this:
- Ranch Life in Texas
- Interview with Photo Editor Steve Freligh
- Tips and Tricks: Photo Books
- NANPA Scholarship Program
The last blog update,
Shooting Moving Water, was on January 12, 2012. There are several blog contributors, all young enthusiastic photographers. Sometimes their youthfulness is annoying to an old lady like me. One or two of them exhibited self-confidence bordering on cockiness, but I might be a little cocky myself if I had their talent.
