A cute Valentine’s Day gift for someone who is into cameras and photography. Don’t you think so?
This is a little wood etched Polaroid Land Cam necklace that’s been hand drawn from an old photograph and sent to a vectoring computer. The design is then etched onto (really really good smelling) Alder Wood.
* 18″ antique brass chain (nickel and lead free)
* hand drawn design on laser etched alder wood
* made in Queens, NY by Vector Cloud
How To Be Inspired Every Day.
Feb 4, 2010 Tips & Tricks Leave a comment
I love reading DPS blog as I get to learn a lot about my fave hobby, photography. I find their article on getting inspired very helpful. I think I lost some inspiration lately, that explains the lack of “nicer” photo uploads from yours truly. I also became too lazy to learn more about this hobby. To get better on this hobby is one of the goals this year. Anyway, below are the tips from DPS:
1. Keep a Notebook.
2. Take your Camera with you Wherever Possible.
3. Read Biographies of Artists that you Admire.
4. Experiment.
5. Start a Personal Project.
6. Visit Art Galleries.
7. Learn Something New Everyday, Every Week, Every Year.
8. Visit New Places.
9. Look after Yourself. {- love this one!
A healthy body equals a healthy mind. Exercise, eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, drink a lot of water. Take some time out to relax.
And above all have fun!
Investment.

I recently came across USGoldBureau.com. I have learned from the site that investing in gold coins and bullions can provide the best way to safeguard our savings. It is important to each one of us to protect our savings, thus we are in search of ways to preserve them. One good way to do so is to buy gold bullion and coins. Gold is better than any paper currency as it is more stable and it gets more valuable over time, thus it is considered a great investment potential. But for us who are not so familiar with this, we can go to United States Gold Bureau and they can assist us through the whole investment process from beginning to end.

Artscow.

I came across Artscow through my online friends. And they have been availing of their products for quite some time now. I plan to have my digital photos printed this year so I decided to give Artscow a visit. Oh my, there are so much stuff I want to order from them. I like their bucket bag and cosmetic case and I love that I can have them personalized by putting a personal photos in there. I also love their custom pillow case. This will make a great gift for the grandparents. How I wish I can make my own photobook, too. But before all of these, I need to check for insurance quotes first. Prioritize, prioritize.
Take Better Candid Photographs.
Jan 25, 2010 Tips & Tricks Leave a comment
While I like my subjects looking at the camera, I enjoy taking candid photos more. I want to capture the moment and their expressions. I believe this is more priceless than posed shots. Anyway, I came across these tips for taking better candid photos.
1. Blend in and be forgotten.
This doesn’t mean you should stand in a corner hiding with your camera. I actually mean the exact opposite - get out there and be seen. For example, say you’re shooting a wedding, you want the guests to get so used to seeing you photographing them, that they begin ignoring the fact that you’re photographing them and instead act as if you’re not there. This will let you catch those natural candid moments that can be truly unique.
2. Watch, wait, be patient.
Many photographers don’t have the patience to wait for reactions that are truly unique and interesting, but often if you wait long enough, something photographic will happen. Look around you, and you’ll see people going through a range of fun and interesting emotions and actions.

3. Keep your camera and lens kit small and compact as possible.
Try using smaller cameras, such as a DSLR without a battery pack in conjunction with prime lenses. A compact kit won’t alarm people allowing them to act naturally around you and forget about your camera. This is especially useful for candid street photography.

“The world bursts at the seams with people ready to tell you you’re not good enough. On occasion, some may be correct. But do not do their work for them. Seek any job; ask anyone out; pursue any goal. Don’t take it personally when they say ‘no’ — they may not be smart enough to say ‘yes.’”
-Keith Olbermann

“The most important thing in life is to stop saying “I wish” and start saying “I will.” Consider nothing impossible, then treat possibilities as probabilities.”
