Recommended photography magazines

Question

What are some internationally available magazines on photography that you would recommend to a photographer who's mastered the basics and is interested in widening his horizons, in terms of inspiration and technique?
Personally, I'm looking for something that does not focus on post-production or aquiring expensive gear.

Answer

I agree w/Staale, and to add to that, avoid any magazine that devotes an inordinate amount of space to gear reviews and advertising... well maybe keep one gear one around cuz they're fun to read :) But for mags that I actually derive inspiration:

  • photo technique: great photography, great tutorials and very informative in both inspiration and actual technique
  • Aperture: More of an 'inspiration' entry, its all photographs and artist's discussion on what they're doing and why
  • B&W: Similar to Aperture but focusing solely on B&W
