I am about to work in my own photo studio, and I am new to it so I would like to know what lights I should use.
I think that I want 800 Ws. I wish not to spend more than $1200. I know I should have at least 3.
What books or websites should I look into as well?
Thanks.

APART from 'I AM good enough' that is!

I'm looking to create a new mentality. I have had enough of not feeling good enough (the feeling has been with me ever since junior school).

Can any of you great minds out there give me some more thoughts which are the OPPOSITE of this rather limiting belief.

Thanks a lot

i mean, we've almost reached a point where Mega pixels in a camera is irrelevant since most people won't blow up images to poster size. I'm thinking improvements on features like IS, more user friendly cameras, smaller and more compact? thanks, your input is appreciated.

How the civil war affect the southern states!



The civil war affected the southern United States in many, many ways,
One way it affected the USA, it helped modernize the south.
After the war the Carpetbaggers came and helped clean up the mess after the war, they gave them: roads, factories, and school for education. Before the war the southerners had no way of transportation, but the carpetbaggers gave them cars and factories to build cars.
Because of all the factories in the south population in the south has started to increase.
Because of the population growth in the south, and all the factories, cars, and roads, the war turned out to be a good thing in the U.S.
Everything was better in the long run.

but were able to turn around and leave them, because you were seeking a kind of impossible PERFECTION, dictated by the discipline of your mind?
What was the outcome of your choice.
To this day, do you regret it, or have you sublimated that search for perfection in something other than another person?

I think I have sucessfully avoided a scam, but I want to know for certain.

A literary agent was making noises about wanting to take my book, but mentioned that I would need to pay £350 as they get charged per manuscript they send in to a publisher.

Is this the case? Has anyone ever come across this before? Do publishers charge reading fees to Agents?
