Featured Photo: Upon Our Clouded Hills
Upon Our Clouded Hills Although I was going to photograph the facade of St. Ignatius on Christmas Eve, I was excited when I found this spot by accident. What else could be better than a landmark building and its reflection! All I had to do was just to wait until the perfect timing of the very slim time slot. After the sunset, the building is lit up but the sky must not be pitch black. I could not miss this chance since more rainy days were expected from the next day. My patience paid off. © Alex T.

Featured Article: 10 Ways to Take Sharper Digital Photos!
No matter how incredible your photo opportunity is, if the images are not sharp, nothing else matters, says pro instructor Jim Zuckerman. "Too often, images are almost sharp, and this is particularly vexing because if only you had paid attention to one tiny detail or two, they would be perfect." Read Jim Z's excellent BetterPhoto article on how to get sharper pictures...

Deb - Deborah Sandidge See Deborah Sandidge's Basic BetterPholio™ Take an Online PhotoCourse™ with Deborah Sandidge: 4-Week Short Course: Digital Infrared Photography 4-Week Short Course: Photoshop: Enhancing Images and Creating Works of Art Response 1:Thanks very much, Debbie! Your positive words keep me going! ~Wayne - Wayne T. Fisk See Wayne's Basic BetterPholio™ Read this discussion online Respond to this discussion | |
New Photo Discussion 2: Prius Family Tree
- Laura E. Swan See Laura's Basic BetterPholio™ Response 1:Thanks, Laura. This was an extraordinary display. The "trunk" and "branches" were a strobed (?) lighting setup on which sequential writings occurred. This was the one second during which there was no writing. Very little Post-Prod, here. Settings: 1/160, F/5.6, I-100, 100mm. My 580Ex II was attached, but it may or may not have gone off here. | |

New Photo Discussion 4: Going Up
- Tammy M. Anderson See Tammy's Basic BetterPholio™ Visit countryimpressions.net - Tammy's Deluxe BetterPholio™ Response 1:The lighting and colors really attracted my attention. I love the way the horizontal lines of the rail are at a upward slant that lets us get the feeling of going up. The swirled lines of the rail give a beautiful decorative look to it. The pattern and lines of the brick wall and the snow sitting a top part of the rail give a wonderful look to the picture. Great eye to see this my dear friend. Gorgeous. Annie and I hope your day is a great one. - frank w. degenhardt See frank's Basic BetterPholio™ Read this discussion online Respond to this discussion | |
