With Camera in Hand We move into a new year…

This image of my niece and nephew taken on our Thanksgiving Day Photo Shoot illustrates beautifully what I feel this New Year’s Eve.

I think of all we have shared in past Guest Shutters and Shutter Challenges and I look forward to traveling into 2008 with you all, camera in hand and laughter at the ready.

2008 will bring many new shutter challenges, Mini-Shutter Gourmet Dive Tours and the big daddy of them all our Newport RI trip. Along the way, I am sure there will be surprises, improvements and learnings…I am thankful to be sharing all this learning and laughter with each one of you.

Happy New Year’s dear friends.

Now, get out there with camera in hand.

Our Friends at PhotoJojo have done it again…

Okay, PhotoJojo did it again with another fabulous MUST read article,
“19 New Year’s Photo Resolutions”

Some of the tips like PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE we are already doing (so I guess we should resolve to keep doing them) but there are some great resources linked-  Twelve Essential Photographic Rules from PopPhoto.com, how to make DIY fisheye lens (I think IvoryHut has already done this, did ya Ivory?), and the ever popular seldom observed Back up back up back up!  Even if you don’t read the article…back-up your precious images.
