Digital Photography
I have recently gotten in to digital photography. Since recently digital cameras have been rather cheap for decent quality, I felt that I should really start taking photos.
One generally does not realize how much actually goes in to taking a photo. How the elements all work together, continuity, symmetry, balance all play a big role in the overall quality of a photo.
One key point is having access to sites that are all relevant to what you need. I was googling around looking for a good photographer blog. While there are many out there, it pays to have access to a concise relevant blog with lots of information, as there are heaps of small things that i picked up from there, that I can now use even on a Saturday night at a nightclub or while taking landscape photos on a weekend away.
I do encourage you to start if you have access to a digital camera as it is so easy to share your photos. Don’t forget that if your mobile phone has a camera you can use that too. My n95 outperforms my first digital camera. It’s fast and easy to use, and far more convenient when you need to take a photo then and there.

I haven’t been able to verify this as I don’t have access to the Border Mail, however I really enjoyed reading this. I don’t know whether the funniest thing is that he wrote the article, or whether the newspaper actually printed it is funnier.
