Where can I go to take classes on becoming a good photopgrapy....

From what I understand, the Kristen viewer is the preferred 'tool' for good photography.  There are also many secondlife blogs related to photography --in addition to this forum.  Read some of the categories of the forum and perhaps you will be able to glean a few tips.  Again, the SL blogs are your best friend when it comes to photography.

Hi,

If you want to become a photographer you need to learn how to use gimp (gimp is free: www.gimp.org) or photoshop or any of other graphic  applications. There are classes classes for example in Photolife group in Second Life: http://photolifephotostudio.wordpress.com/ I found them the most organised when I searched for photo classes. Of course there can be other groups and maybe other Residents can add more information about it.

There are some basic classes sometimes in different schools. Have a look at events: http://secondlife.com/community/events/

Here are some tips from Torley: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Taking_snapshots

You can find a lot of Second Life photographers' works at Flickr so you can see what are the possibilities. 

Good luck.

Just for the record, I would not consider your question a 'meh' question.

I took a really good class in Caledon a little while back. They also offer other cool classes as well and they have a class schedule posted just outside the class room/lecture hall/university.

You might start by reviewing some of the resource threads in the Art & Photography forum, and then post questions there as you think of them.  Then next time you are in world use Search to look for Events >> Educational.  There are usually many classes each week to cover creative skills like photography.

To become a good photographer in SL is not that different in many respects to becoming a good photographer in RL. I think the basic principles are the same. Information regarding composition and the use of light for RL photography for instance are also valid in SL. Perhaps reading up on photography in general is a way to go.
