It just looks awful, dull and flat, tried fiddling in CS3 and gave up. It's good for the trash basket, but thought I'd take the opportunity to ask you why it's like this first.

He was quoted for being a superficial person. He whenever asked what his work was about, responded with " I don't know". He pretty much left the judgment for his work up to the audience rather than to explain what it was about. So what do you think it's about? Is he in some way, against all his statements, actually protesting consumerism, with the soup cans and Brillo boxes, or, are they just as superficial as he said?

I own a Canon 20D and a 10D digital Cameras. I have an old Canon EF 75-300mm 1:4-5.6 zoom lens that I bought back in 1996! So I know this lens was never designed for digital SLR cams. I'm on a very limited budget so I need to know which of these lens is better. The Tamron is in my reach more so then the Canon USM lens. But I want to get the best of the two. Obliviously the more expensive lens would work better. So my question, which of these two is the better lens to invest in.

I was asked by two of my friends to takes some action photos of them. There both athletic and she into the Martial Arts.
Plus they wants some fashion style creative shots in the city too. It just would be one camera and maybe a small tripod. I don't want to be to obvious with the photography because some place get funny about picture taking. I was thinking Santa Monica because I live near Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach. But I have shot down there many times. Besides near the SM Pier and the Third Street Promenade, does anybody have other suggestions for cool backdrops and locals in Santa Monica, CA for picture taken?

I am shooting with a Canon rebel. I do not know much about the camera. I usually just shoot and pictures turn out fine. However, tonight I'm trying to do some product pictures with this makeshift whiteboard studio I set up. I have one floodlight and two "daylight" bulbs set up to shine on the objects nd it looks really bright with the naked eye, but the pictures are turning out very yellow. With the flash ON and the lights OFF it looks great, except that it gets darker at the edges of the photo. Some of the objects i need to photograph are kind of large so that might be an issue. Can you take a look and offer any advice? Please keep in mind I have never really adjusted the settings on this camera so I would need very thorough instructions if I have to change something. Thanks!

I'm writing a short story in which a man thinks he has found a painting by Khalo in some old lady's attic. He steals it and I want him to try and sell it only to find out its fake. How can I do so in a realistic fashion? Where would one go if one had found such a painting?

I think I’m finally over this vicious bug. So maybe karma had something to do with me staying home all last week and finally finishing this painting that I’ve put off for weeks and weeks. It has a name now. It’s called simply ‘Heritage,’

Of the five women in the painting the girl in the cap and gown is based on a photo of my daughter. The serious young woman writing is based on a photo of Anne Frank. The other women came out of my imagination. But I think I’m in love with the WWII nurse.

I have four pillow cases or pictures made by them in 1889. I cannot find any info on them and I very curious to know exactly what they are. They came from my Great grandma's house and they are very precious to me. I would really like to know some history on them. One is a girl with a chicken, one is little red riding hood, one is Christopher Columbus and the other one is three teenage sisters dressed in victorian looking dresses.

Where is a crediable place to get this done and about how much do you think they would cost. I know several places are going to be different prices but if you had ot guestimate, what would you think?

Thanks

ok so i can sketch people really well. Whether its its only faces, or the entire person with a background (streets, etc.) I can also sketch wildlife (animals). So is there any place i can send my sketches hoping to get a job? Even if it's really low pay, i don't care. Or is this talent completely useless in every aspect?

I accidentally deleted all the photos that i had on my camera (498 to be exact) and i was wondering if there is a way that i can take the pictures that have been stored on my computer and place them back onto my xD memory card. I am dealing with a Mac computer. I have renamed the files, like or example instead of being titled "PB3982.jpg" i have remained them to be called such things as "BeachDay"....has this got anything to do with why they are not being able to be transferred back onto my memory card?

PLEASE HELP SOMEONE!
