The key to completing a free online course is to find the material that really interests you at the moment. Thus, you can spend some of your precious time reading. These are two free online photography courses that I found well-organized, interesting, and useful with great material. So, it’s really worth participating in them.

The second course looks very interesting. It's always nice to learn more about photography, and I still have to learn a lot. I love taking photos of nature, and I also do portrait photography. But for me I need to follow a course that is not to difficult yet. I really want to learn more about how to use the right light. I also would like to follow a course about Photoshop. I use this sometimes (but not so much, because in portrait photography I like it to be a natural look), but I want to learn more about it.
Have a nice week,
greetings, Vanessa
