Hard Wearing Digital Cameras
June 30th, 2009
The waterproof shockproof digital camera is a breakthrough in the digital camera market. Apart from having all the important technical specifications of a high quality camera, a waterproof shockproof digital camera includes the ability to be submerged in water to a certain level and withstand a drop from a certain height. One of the most popular waterproof digital camera models available today is the Olympus Stylus 850. Apart from being a robust waterproof shockproof digital camera, the Olympus Stylus 850 has face detection technology, a high mega pixel resolution, panoramic mode, a rugged metal body and 5 x digital zoom.
Taking one into the water is a little different story. If you enjoy scuba diving or snorkelling you need to consider buying one of the waterproof digital cameras that is also suitable for underwater use. These often come with a waterproof case that acts as an extra barrier against the water. Not all cameras that are waterproof can go below the surface so before you decide to do it, ensure it can withstand it. It is important to compare digital cameras thoroughly before you buy – there are so many different features and combinations.
Each model has different features and typically the more extras you have on the camera the more you should expect to pay. Practically every one of the water proof digital cameras being sold today has a self-timer. This allows the user the chance to get themselves in the shot. Even a novice can master this feature.
Filming short videos can also be done with many cameras. This works great for people who want to capture something in the ocean on film. Many water proof digital cameras offer a feature that allows for longer filming times. If this is something you’d find useful, narrow your search to cameras that offer this.
Downloading and printing the images from the camera needs to be considered as well. If you aren’t all that computer savvy purchase one of the water proof digital cameras that just plugs directly into the USB port of your computer. Many models also have a removable memory card which lets you take the card to a photo shop for them to print for you.
There’s no reason not to capture all the great moments you enjoy in the water on a digital camera. Just be certain that the model you buy has everything you need to take beautiful pictures.

Photography Art Prints
June 30th, 2009
One of the most treasured American exponents of the art is Ansel Adams. Prints of his photography of the American West and Yosemite National Park has made him famous. He loved this landscape and was a passionate environmentalist. Adams used a large format view camera to capture vast scenes of mountains, forests, and lakes. He was made a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1966 and was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Jimmy Carter in 1980, which is the highest award that a civilian can receive in the United States. Aspens Northern New Mexico, Oak Tree, Sunset City, California 1932, Mount McKinley and Wonder Lake Denali National Park Alaska and Moon and Half Dome Yosemite National Park 1960 are some of his reproduced works.
Known as the ‘father of modern photo-journalism’ Henri Cartier Bresson was a French man. Rather than formal poses he was largely responsible for taking photography out of the studio into the streets. A true artist with the camera he began as a printer. Taking art photography prints of Berlin, Warsaw, Prague, Budapest, and Madrid he travelled extensively in Europe. Japan, China, India and the Soviet Union were also places he visited. Cartier-Bresson helped to form the influential Magnum picture agency for photo-journalism. Ahmedabad, Guejerat, India 1966, Queen Charlotte’s Ball 1959, Sidewalk Café, and the view from Top of Notre Dame are among his prints that are available to buy.
Bill Brandt was a British photographer and photo-journalist, celebrated for his landscapes, nudes, and his documentation of British life. He photographed the underground bomb shelters for civilians during the Blitz in London in World War II after being commissioned by the government. As in Nude 1952, his nude art photography prints are artfully shot in black and white. Brandt’s work was used by Life magazine, including the print, Rider on Horseback in Hyde Park, a shot from 1940 in London’s famous park, showing a rider on a white horse and a line of trees.
Known mostly for his pictures of celebrities Robert Mapplethorpe is an American photographer. The iconic cover of Patti Smith’s debut album “Horses” sealed his reputation when photographed her. He also took pictures of Grace Jones, Richaed Gere, Debbie Harry and Andy Warhol. Many of Mapplethorpe’s other art photography prints are of flowers. They often have a luminous sheen when delicately shot with pale colours.
