Facebook is a great place for photography fans to learn about the craft, get inspiration and keep up to date with what other photography lovers are doing. Some pages stand out more than others though. While there are a heap of great photographers on Facebook, we think these are some of the standout pages by professional photographers that everyone who loves the craft should be following.

A look at albums by Manny Librodo will take you to a whole new world of beauty and color.

Rather than Facebook, a horrid place to try and ‘follow’ anything – why not Flickr?
Why not just look at their website. A professional anything that uses FB primarily is just about as classy as crossing out the info on someone else’ business card and writing in your own. I guess the entire world is supposed to be (sadly) filtered through the Facebook shit aggregator.
