I'm getting very interested in the idea of making my own shirts and such. How can I turn my thoughts and ideas into digital images. Graphic tablets and those pads that you draw on?

My friends got married and I want to surprise them with a rhino statue (long story...) for their front yard, but I can't find a lot of selection on-line. I'm picturing a stone, fat one that is about 6-12" long. Does anybody have any links, phone numbers, anything to broaden my search? I live in san diego...

Im taking a photo class and our first project is about exposure.
We have to shoot the subject at normal exposure and then also 2 stops under-exposed and over-exposed.
I know that under-exposed means darker but how do I do that? Like what do I do with the shutter speed and f-stop?
And what about making it overexposed?
And how can I use the light meter to help guide me?

Im supposed to be taking these pictures outside btw.
and I have a Pentax ZX60 camera with a Pentax 28-90 lens.
Do i have to do anything with the lens for exposure?

And does anyone know about the Pentax ZX60? I think my teacher said that instead of making it 2 stops over/under exposed, I'm supposed to make it 4 half stops because my camera has more numbers. This is true right?

And does anyone know what AV means? Aperture? Do i have to do anything with the aperture to change the exposure? How do you change it?

Sorry about all the questions, Im just a little confused.

I’ve been having a lot of hard time trying to get good composition ,partly because I never tried to learn, but I kind of began to understand the basics and the importance of following the guidelines(as it has ruined some of my pics partly) and I know sometimes I should brake the rules to make my photos a bit more artistic(as Picasso did) but im just posting some of this pics up to see if im improving at all, I tried to get them done as fast as I could so I can get used to naturally getting composition into place. I tried to do cross, rule of thirds, and the golden rule, I want to learn on simple objects first before I can start on the complexity of people…..

The majority of the acrylic paintings are 4ft x 4ft and the canvas was stretched by the artist on to wood frames. Some of the wood frames are warping. I need a storage method that can be used for long term (over a year) storage and is practical when dealing with at least 20 paintings. I also need a method that is not super expensive. In case it is important to storage: the paintings range in age from approximately 10-60 years old, but the vast majority are 10-30 years old. Thank you for your help!

Can anyone give me a really good ideas for a photo of a girl in a bra(or if you think would be more better- semi-nude) wearing “diamond earrings & a bracelet” more interesting and appealing for a modeling portfolio? Because the last shoot went horribly wrong on both our parts, so we will try to learn from our mistakes and try it again, but suggest some things so that its not just another cheap jewelry shot. I need high fashion, so something exotic yet affordable like what antm(Americas next top model) did like add a tarantula to the photo……any ideas are welcome as long as they are budget worthy

I bought a very old & and antique looking print or painting with old frame of Leonardo De Vinci, and on the bottom it says Collection Hanfstaengl Munchen 50. Rembrandt. Was this a print or painting made by Rembrandt and does it have any value? It looks like a black and white portrait of De Vinci. And how do I find anything about it?
Thanks, Tom

The artist's signiture is hard to make out. It look like I Mai.... that's how it looks like it starts with. It's really hard to tell.
The painting is on a black (crushed velvet type) canvas. The painting is set in the forest with ice cap mountains in the distance at the top of the painting. The focal point is an old mill beside a lake. If anyone recognizes who the artist may be, please let me know. Thanks!
