Worthy photography magazines?

No one here has ever heard of Aperture Magazine? Awesome stuff.

If you can, I suggest heading to your local University Library (especially if they offer Fine Art courses) and check out the periodicals.

It's amazing (and sad) how no one ever goes to the Library any more.

Edit: HAHA! I stand corrected! Sorry, Chris, I didn't see your post mentioning Aperture!

I subscribe to Shutterbug. I've picked up some good info from this mag.

I would look into the Rangefinder magazine. It's free as well!

National Geographic. Lots of awesome photos from PJ to landscape, action, portraits, everything....

LensWork will always be my #1

But I also subscribe to Outdoor Photographer, I have found the range of content in every issue to be interesting and informative.

I dropped my American Photo subscription this year as I really don't think it's all that. I will be going back again to look at B&W and Aperture as I know they are very popular and I have neglected to give them the attention they probably deserve.

My blog! (just kidding)
And, for a really cool web magazine with tons of REALLY in-depth explanations of technique to achieve specific shots, including charts and layouts for lighting:

The F-Stop

Great site that.

+1 for Nat Geo. They have a great assortment, plus I just read on Kenrockwell.com that they have one of the best print facilities in the magazine world. I don't know for sure, but that's just what I read.
