Outdoor Photographer
A great magazine
(updated Sat. Jan. 24, 2015)
I travelled much for work over the years. In 1999-2000, I was blessed to work for Gateway Computers. The work started in N. Sioux City, SD in late 1998. I was able to move to the new project at their new corporate headquarters in La Jolla, CA - a very nice San Diego suburb.
I flew there Monday mornings and flew home Friday afternoons. Every 4-6 weeks Ann Marie would fly out. Before 9/11, we could still walk departing passengers to their gates. Between her boarding and the plane pushing back, I would usually visit the airport book/magazine shop.
There I discovered Outdoor Photographer magazine.
I recommend its paper format, suspect the digital version is equally impressive, and also recommend their website. The articles contain amazing images and the columnists provide practical guidance.
This page shares a sample of some of of their more insightful writings.
