Lately I've been wanting to just sit down and draw. But, once I get to the sit down part, nothing comes to mind!

Any ideas please?

I am going to Las Vegas in August with all my friends and family for a once in a lifetime trip (my wedding). I would love to take great photos, but I'm a little new at it. My camera is a Fuji FinePix S700 and I have a few lenses (uv, polarizing and diffusion). I can get daytime shots without a problem, but the night shots look terrible. I've practiced with all the settings, which are a little confusing, but it doesn't seem right. I know night shots are tricky, not to mention all the lights in the background that will be going on. Does anyone have any advice? I have read the owners manual several times, but I would like to hear from someone with experience in photography.

I want to use a stencil and an airbrush to paint a design onto the body of my guitar and possibly later on the fret board: is an airbrush the right thing to use, and is it worth the risk?

I have an old necklace from my grandma but i do not know anything about it. I was told it was not a precious metal but I have just found 917 printed on the clasp and I cannot find what this means. It is silver in colour. Please help.

On the Famous Person Website: Sydney Goodsir Smith is given as someone in whom we are interested.
We have a painting of the old Scottish Mansion style building of Nunraw, East Lothian.
The date is given as 1956.
We would like any biographical information that he may have done this water colour painting around that date.
Or any confirmation that he may have stayed at this place?

have a lithograph by Claude Grosperrin w/authentication on back from The Collectors' Guild, Ltd., 185 Madison Ave., New York (which is no longer in business, to our knowledge). It does not state the name of this particular lithograph but the authentication is written in French and there is a numbered stamp located above it and a small article about the artist from the Collector's Guild mentioning a time frame of 1959-1960.
