In About.com Photography under Christmas Card Photos they have links to pick a photo idea for kids, families, and pets. It also explains and gives links for top picks for Christmas photo props. Very helpful when you’re stuck in determining what Christmas card you want to send out.
I found an interesting link on this web page about taking pictures in the cold weather. Photographers who take pictures in cold weather have to be especially careful, not only for themselves but their camera as well. “Not only an their fingers get frostbite but also their camera batteries can become drained.” Condensation can also play a large role during the shoot. Condensation is caused when temperatures change rapidly and the camera lens begins to fog up. A way to prevent condensation is to put your camera in a bag with the same temperature as the camera is used to, this way the condensation forms on the outside of the bag as the camera “gradually equalizes” to the temperature outside.
I liked this website because it had many different links on it. My favorite link was Christmas cards photo ideas. http://photography.about.com/od/photographybyoccasion/tp/kidphotoideas.htm It explained how to create different illusions with your children such as his or her tongue being stuck to a metal pole, kids in gift boxes, different poses to do with Santa Claus, etc
If you click on the review of verbatim photoshop DVD's and then scroll down and click on the digital photography tips link. You can sign up for a course and get great photography tips.
I think this site is useful for little tidbits of information for instance it told me the difference between digital and optical zoom and that you would rather use optical zoom instead because it makes for better quality.
I love how on the website it gives you photo tips on how to take pictures of Santa with children. I didn't know that using action mode is the best mode to take that picture and that fill film can make the people in the picture brighter. Here is a link to make it easier.http://photography.about.com/od/photographybyoccasion/qt/SantaPhotoTips.htm.

In About.com Digital Scrapbooking. This site gives you information on how to create a digital scrapbook, instead of a normal scrapbook that can get messy at times.
I found a link that showed how to use layers and edit them and stuff, and it was cool to know. And found out that layers are one of the most powerful tools included in many photo editing programs.
On About.com I found out a ton of interesting information but my favorite was under "Bonfire Night." I liked it because I usually find myself in predicaments when certain activities are hard to capture, but this gave me some good ideas to improve my photos such as ditching the flash.
The christmas lights for "Photo of the week" is a great shot:) Its taking something very simple and making it artistic. Im also loving the warm and cool contrast!
In About.com Photography it gives you a lot of information. I luckily found a link of coolest photography gifts for the holiday. One of their tips is a digital photo frames, which are very common now. PhotoGlow is different. PhotoGlow is a illuminated photo frame. Which ever one would make a photographer happy.
This website recently posted a news update on the status of four photojournalists who were kidnapped in Somalia in August of this year. Their captors had demanded $15 million for their release or they'd be killed, and had a 15 day deadline to be met. The demands were not met, but recently the media has been informed that all 4 photojournalists are still alive and being held by the same group in Somalia.
Taking better photos indoors. In this discussion you can get advice on how to take better pictures inside. I wouldn’t necessarily trust the people who posted their opinions but I’m sure you can get something out of it.
I like this website because it taught me that the reason why photos come out blurry is either because: 1. The camera shook, 2. there was a slow shutter speed, 3. poor focus. This website also helps you fix the problem. http://photography.about.com/od/takingpictures/ig/Troubleshooting-Blurry-Images/

Point and shoot cameras mean just that, point the camera at something and trip the shutter. The camera does all the work for you. Unfortunately, the camera is rarely as smart as the photographer so the results can be iffy. Point and shoot cameras are often abbreviated as P&S. These cameras started out as a fixed lens that focused about 4 feet in front of the camera with a fixed aperture and shutter speed. It was basically a box with a shutter.
Last of the Instant Film? Friday December 12, 2008 Polaroid announced earlier this year that it would cease producing its instant film. While the company intends to manufacture "enough" product to be sold through 2009, this month is the last active production month of Polaroid instant film. Fans of instant film are left scrambling to stash as much film as possible and wondering if another manufacturer will license the technology. Some fans have even begun a website to try to urge other manufacturer's to pick up the product. This is a huge departure for a company that back in 1985 went to court to prevent Kodak from marketing instant film cameras. Polaroid won and Kodak instant cameras disappeared. Now Polaroid itself is bowing out of its once actively protected market to focus on digital endeavors. Still, even Polaroid seems reluctant to let go of the instant film phenomena as its homepage still prominently features image transfer examples.
