You know how that famous saying goes: It's all about timing. It goes for a lot of things in life, and in many cases in landscape photography, it's true.

Many people may wonder: What makes a good landscape photo? The answer to this question is not that simple. Personally I believe that simple photos are the best.

The absence of films defines what a digital camera is. It does not entail any mechanical or chemical process, unlike its analog counterpart. The digital camera records moving images and has a built-in computer translating images into electronic form. It is so convenient, it doesn't even use electricity. Images in a digital camera are converted into the electronic language, something a computer could understand. This is called pixels. Pixels are basically tiny dots constituted of ones... more...

There are some basic terms you should become familiar with on the road to being a good amateur photographer. They'll help you decide which camera is right for you. Drooling at the sight of the neighbor's ultra compact or D-SLR doesn't mean its what you should buy. But don't buy the cheapest model either. Doing that is like throwing fifty bucks out the car window. They come with no manual either online or hard copy. There is a helpline that never answers the phone. You are tot... more...

Grandma might be the one doing the whining, if you have just graduated but your happy pictures can only be found online. Printing out multiple copies of your digital images and then having to assort them, before you have to sit down to create a photo-album that included dates, nametags, and even exam notes, seems like a big hassle.
