September 30, 2008 by Lisa Berton

Welcome to another installation of Disney Pic of the Week. Today, I’ll erect this week’s theme with a shot of Cirque du Soleil’s tent situated at Downtown Disney Westside. Inside you’ll find their show La Nouba. I haven’t seen it myself but I have visited the gift shop. Canon EOS 30D with Canon 17-40mm USM … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week – Architecture"

Sitting Pretty

September 27, 2008 by Barrie Brewer

Copyright Â© 2008 Barrie Brewer, Nikon D50, 18-200VR, 1/160s shutter, f5.6 For my Pic of the Week I chose this photo of a Snowy Egret I took in Frontierland last January. He didn’t seem to have a care in the world. Perhaps that is because he has feathers instead of fur!

September 26, 2008 by Scott Thomas

Before I go on talking about organizing our digital library of photographs, I want to introduce you to the new breed of software that were released a couple of years ago I refer to as digital darkroom programs. These programs assist you in organizing, editing and outputting (either files or prints) your digital photos in … Continue reading "The Digital Darkroom"

Wanna Hang Out?

September 25, 2008 by Lisa Berton

As Scott previously stated, this week’s theme is birds. I love birds but I’m especially fascinated by parrots. I think it started when I was a child and we’d visit my aunt and uncle in Miami. They had tons of animals, including a few parrots. One of them would call to my cousin whenever the … Continue reading "Wanna Hang Out?"

Optical and Digital Stabilization

September 24, 2008 by Lisa Berton

Point and shoot cameras have been boasting about having stabilization for a couple of years now. In the beginning they didn’t specify whether the stabilzers were optical or digital and there is a big difference. Digital stabilization means that the camera boosts the ISO setting let’s say from 400 to 1600. This means the camera … Continue reading "Optical and Digital Stabilization"

This week’s theme for our Disney Pic of the Week is Birds. Naturally, I went through my Animal Kingdom shots looking for birds. As you know, most birds fly. The subject of my photo, an Ostrich, does not. He is, however, the second fastest animal on Earth, and the fastest 2 legged animal, and can … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week: Birds"

Black and White – Follow the Lantern

September 20, 2008 by Lisa Berton

When I was in photography school, I used to argue with my Photojournalism teacher. I was 100% certain that I only wanted to shoot in color and at the time it was because I was completely entranced by the crystal blue oceans, bright green grass, and constant sunshine of California. No, I wasn’t living in … Continue reading "Black and White – Follow the Lantern"
