When you’re creating as less subjective work of art do the titles come to you instinctively? If so, do you believe they fit the work and what you’ve said artistically? Or do you just slap on any old title that comes to mind? If it’s an abstract work does it really even need a title?

Are your titles well-thought out or are they ever afterthoughts? And have you ever come up with a cool title or phrase that you liked and becided to paint a painting based on the title?

Here is a painting I finished two nights ago:

http://pics.livejournal.com/unmired/pic/0007dxpy/g86

Do you think the title (which came instinctively to me) fits the title?

I'm wondering what will be in the box when I buy this - like what comes with it.?? Is this camera good for everyday pictures? Are the memory cards (xD-picture card) any good? Do the xD's hold more than the SD card?

Is this camera a point and shoot, or a DSLR?

Everytime i take a photo, for example, at a speed of 1/1000, the images become really dark, even in light areas. Is this normal? and can it be fixed? I tried increasing the ISO speeds, increasing the apeture thing.. and yeah.. it wont be fixed.

I visited a relative last year who showed me photos of my Mum, Dad, Brother and myself, taken some 50 years ago. In fact there would be dozens of shots.
These are images that I don't have, and not likely to ever see again.
They are of no use to this adopted person, however his wife gets a lot of pleasure from retaining these and making sure that close relatives don't get them. She has mentioned this to me, which I found distasteful to say the least.
One story which was related to me by the adopted relatives wife, was that a photo of one of my aunts' late husband who was killed during the first world war. This is a portrait of my uncle in army uniform, and is spectacular to say the least. The request by my 93 year old aunt was turned down out of spite by this women that I mentioned, who did not even know the soldier.
Is this mean spirited, or just me being sensitive to the images of another, being in the wrong hands.

What is/ are the difference(s) between Apparel and Fashion design, is it the same thing?
Because I was looking at the Art Institutes and they have those two different programs < would this be about the type of degree: one year, two year..>
http://www.artinstitutes.edu/areaso...


Part 2: I want to go to one of these school, but my drawing isn't that great, so could I be able to go to a community college and just take art classes, then create a strong portfolio?

One last thing :
For those of you that have had experience in this sort of schooling, would you suggest a certain Art Institute or ANOTHER fashion centered school?

By adequate lighting, I meant outdoor conditions for example. The answer is probably not. However, I was thinking that if the ISO was higher, they could obtain a faster shutter speed to maybe get a different image effect. But I've always thought lower ISOs meant better quality and less noise in images....thanks.

I want to get a tattoo of something related to music, mainly hip-hop/rap, but I cannot find a drawing of anything related to music or hip-hop that would look good as a tattoo. Please scan a drawing or give me a link to a gallery of related things. Thank you.

I'm going to a snowboard competition tomorrow and I'm wondering how fast of a shutterspeed I should use to freeze snowboarders in mid air jumping? I'll be shooting with a Sigma 70-200mm 2.8 lens on a Canon 400D. I need sharp photos because I sell them as stock.

Should I shoot with my aperture wide open at 2.8? Any other suggestions to help me get good results will be appreciated.

Wanted your opinions - is this a good picture to use as a christmas card? I really loved the way it came out, I think it looks really good. Do you think it would make a good Christmas card to send to our friends?

Getting to the point where there are too many myspace'ers asking how to make animated gifs and enhance their page with other seemingly "cool" images, and what not.

Where's the talk of SLR's / Lenses / Apertures / Shutter speeds / White balances / ISO's gone!

I have a good digital camera but my photos (even photos of still things, like landscapes) never turn out as nice as the real thing or even as nice as other people (who aren't professional photographers)'s photos?
