I was really pleased just to have them on my computer ready to peruse at my leisure. When I showed them to relatives they often requested copies that I was dying t... - Digital Photo Print Services Online - Is It Easier Than Printing Photos At Home? By : Mindi Haehl

By : Eric Scribener
Some people don't – and for very real reasons...
I've been taking professional photographs for about thirty years. Ever since I started, I've heard a constant comment. It is always said something like "I just don't take good pictures" or "the camera just doesn't like me." Almost invariably, when this statement is uttered, everyone within earshot gives a chuckle, or immediately starts assuring the speaker that they really do look good. Sometimes it's true, but often it's no... - The Classic Look Of A Black And White Photo By : Lisa Scott

Fenwick
Be at One with the Land.
Buyers and collectors have accepted photography as art for some time, but only if it's of significant artistic merit. Great landscape photography sells because the buyer is searching for escapism and the need to dream. As a species we have always been linked to and drawn to the landscape.

Masaru Emoto is a Japanese scientist. He puts words on bottles of water and then freezes the water. After that, he lets the water warm itself. Then he hired a photographer to check under a microscope the crystal structures of the water.
He claimed that putting good words on the water, like thank you, or love, would result in good crystal formation.
On the other hand, putting bad words on the bottles, like “I hate you” will produce bad crystal formation.

One ancient proverb says a picture is equal to thousand words. What about picture frames. The main function of a picture or photo frame is to protect and highlight the content it holds.

There are frames and there are frames but to select which is most suitable for the picture or photograph ... - Photo Mugs At A Glance By : Michael Perry

Can you imagine anyone paying you good money for your photos? No? You know, I had all those photos from a recent trip to Rome, Italy, laying around and I thought it should be possible to make a few bucks off of them.
