Photolearningism

For anyone who may have been checking in over the last several months, I haven't been posting while I gathered up the needed momentum to push this effort forward.

In large part, I floated through 2017 trying to get my bearings on how to use my new camera, what to do with my website, and where to go from here. Well! Here's a (short) list of what I'm after in 2018: Nate Ciraulo Photography YouTube Channel -  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCav-Z9igJxYaNTwsle43VcQ I've managed to get a "pilot" episode of sorts in place, but there's a ton to do and I'm still refining the format of what this will be. Additionally, I've found the YouTube content creator interface a little clunky and difficult to navigate. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the free service YouTube offers, but it's just a little daunting to figure out. Some features require a minimum nu
