Monthly Archives: March 2010 Darren Rouse over at Digital Photography School recently asked the question, “What was your first photography experience?”. My first experience was borrowing my mother’s Instamatic (don’t recall if it was a genuine Kodak or a ‘Boots-the-Chemist’ branded camera). The Kodak Instamatic was a simple to use snapshot camera. Using 35mm film pre-loaded in a drop-in… Did you know that? No, I didn’t either. Wouldn’t have if I didn’t follow Guy Kawasaki on Twitter. He tweeted this link to the Boston Globe site where they have 43 remarkable images from National Geographic, NASA, and other media outlets on the subject of ‘Water’. Having spent many years living in North Africa and… Canon recently announced a firmware upgrade for the Canon EOS 5D Mark II. The current version, 2.0.4, is available for download from this Canon site. 
i am just new beginner of this profession i took this job because its one of my hobby and i love taking photos of people with feelings… i wanted to learn know more the who was the best cam to use..hoping and looking forward to learn more about it…thanks!  I spent the bulk of 1998 and 1999 living in Paris, France. For the first time since 1985 I didn’t own a car. I walked, took the bus or rode the Metro and RER practically everywhere. Paris (inside the peripherique) is such a compact city – you can walk across it diagonally in only a… I’ve added a bookstore page with links to reference books in my library that I recommend to fellow photographers, amateur and professional alike. Let’s face it, we can always learn more or learn different and it may just help us get that shot we’re looking for when we’re under pressure. Over time I’ll add a…  In 1986, having received a sentence of 5-years suspended for 5-years having been caught brewing beer in Libya, I was assigned to South Africa. In January 1987 I found myself in the Northern Cape province, in a small town named Campbell. According to Wikipedia it was renamed from Grootfontein in honour of the Reverend John Cambell. Although…  In the summer of 1985 I took off for a rail trip around Europe with my friend, Peter Cripps. Having traveled around German, Austria, Switzerland, Italy and (the former) Yugoslavia the previous year, we decided to head to northern Europe and Scandinavia. Having passed through Denmark stopping in Copenhagen, we moved on to Sweden. We…  When I first went to Libya in 1984 I was an ‘Assistant Seismologist’. My job function was to determine the static corrections needed to apply to the seismic data so it all made sense in the processing cycle. To do this we had a couple of Mayhew 1000 drilling rigs mounted on Belgian MOL trucks….  In 1990-91 I was fortunate enough to be assigned to work in the Kalansho sand sea in the Libyan Desert. Fortunate becuase a little to the east (in those days) lay the wreckage of the ‘Lady Be Good’, a WWII era Liberator Bomber. The plane failed to return to Suluq airbase after the crew’s first… |
