May I just say that I hate it when someone says "You're camera takes great pictures" or "You must have a really good camera." My camera is nice, but I'm the one who decides what it shoots

I liked your rule of thirds blog, even if I kind of ignore it....
But gotta say, your snow one want right over my pretty little head.

I think the rule of thirds is a good tip, but hardly a law. Once you know what looks good that way, it's fun to play around and try different methods. The only rule I have in photography is to be decisive - have a reason for every part of the photograph. I ask myself, why am I: -focusing on that particular spot -taking the picture at that height and from that direction -using that aperture and shutter speed -composing the subject in that manner -using a particular lens/reflector/diffuser/tripod/whatever The great thing about digital photography is that you can try so many different ideas so easily, but I believe every shot should have a reasoning behind it. Otherwise, you're just left with snapshots.  |

If a successful writer ever says that to you, feel free to say to her...."Wow, your books are great! You must have a really good typewriter!" |

Regarding the previous comment, I realize that nobody writes on typewriters anymore (can you even get ribbons for them now?), but "Wow, you must have a great word processor!" just doesn't sound as snarky.

As usual, R. Doug, the photos you put in your blog are gorgeous, but due to my current mood, your reflection shot is my favorite....

Why, thank you very much, Scarlet. Glad you approve, but sorry about your mood. I assume you meant the reflection in red. Anything I can do to help?
oh, sorry, perhaps "mood" was the incorrect word. insert, "current obssession with reflections". and check out the photo effects thread for what happens when I start playing with reflections. |

Good eye . . . and memory. Yep, one's a repeat, as I thought it pertained to both articles. (I'll be getting back to you this weekend on that stuff you wanted me to take a look at, Scarlet; I haven't forgotten, just been swamped) |
