New section soon!

I guess digital camera's will be on Santa's list this year.  It is estimated that 90% of the people will be digital by the years end!  So with the need to share some info, I will be making a tips section for all you new and (old) digital photographers.  I use Photoshop CS on a PC and most of the tips will be geared to that.  I know some of the tips will work in Photoshop Elements, but you will have to try them on your own.  You can always leave me a question in the discussion area of the blog.  I may just put some of the tips there, so others can ask questions and learn from there.

There is just not enough daylight to do all the things I would like to do.

End of year rush!

I am trying to finish some end of the year items for the blog.  I am half way through my journal from my Utah trip this year.  I need to send it to Kevin to edit (he does this well) and get some pics ready for the gallery.  I was able to buy a used Canon 1Ds a month ago and have been pleased with the results with the camera.  I still have the Canon 10D, which is a great camera also.  I love having 11.1 mega-pixels to play with.  I hope to have a little more time in 2005 to do more journal updates. I have three journals I keep up and need to narrow them down.  Have a happy holidays!

Slide show at Lamar School

Friday I did a slide show for Lamar 5th grade class on Alaska.  The kids had lots of questions and did a great job.  It was neat listening to their comments about the images.  My daughter had a big grin on her face the whole time and I asked her what it was all about.  She said " I am proud of you daddy!".  What a great kid!  I will have to do some more stuff for the school.  Thanks to Mrs. Thornton for asking me to do this show.
