The “2011-Photograph-of-the-Year Edition” of the Corner Newsletter is out in inboxes across the world as of a couple of hours ago. If you’re a member of the Corner, it should be in your inbox waiting for you. If you’re not a member of the Corner (you can sign up here), or you somehow missed it, you can, as always, read the newsletter online in the Newsletter Archives here. It definitely has a “Photograph of the Year” vibe to it, but next month I promise it will be back to normal.

The newsletter was sponsored by the New York Institute of Photography. NYIP is the world’s largest and oldest photography school and offers 3 affordable home-study courses. Founded in 1910, they have trained more successful photographers than any other school in the world. NYIP uses a combination of lesson books, CDs, and DVDs, plus access to professional photographers as your teachers and student advisors to give you a high-quality photography education without the hassle of commuting costs, deadlines, or due dates. Study on your own time, at your own pace, from anywhere in the world and get the photography training that you deserve! To get your Free Course Catalog and find out how we can help you, click here.

The Corner server is working hard right now emailing out 20k+ newsletters to you all. If it’s not already waiting for you in your inbox, it should get there shortly. If you’re impatient, or for some reason have opted not to receive it, you can read it online here.

Amidst all the voting and discussions around the 2009 Photograph of the Year contest, the regular, monthly newsletter somehow found a way to be written and sent out. For those that are members (free!) of PhotographyCorner, you should have it waiting for you in your inbox. For those that are not yet members of the Corner (register here) or choose not to receive emails from PhotographyCorner, you can read the entire Volume 7, Issue 1 - January 2010 Edition of the Corner newsletter in the Corner Newsletter Archive in the forums.

Obviously I’m a big fan of the “learn through social interaction” method of learning photography - the fact that PhotographyCorner exists is testament to that. I am not, however, against formal education by any means. The Corner has had several partnerships with some photography school-type sites (like the School of Photography.com), for instance. But when you think of photography schools, the first one that usually comes to mind is the New York Institute of Photography (NYIP for short).
