a few words about my Paris photos. First off, disclaimer:
I'm no professional photographer. Sure, I've taken photo classes, photograph a lot have a fun camera...but that doesn't mean I'm a pro!I just have fun.
(photo by the fabulous pro: Sande Krieger)I love to play around with composition, juxtaposition, the lenses, and of course the photo editing part.

Here are some answers to your questions.
What kind of camera do you use?I have a
Canon XT. no. not an
XTi or an XSi or even a 50D, Mark II or Mark III. Oh how I wish I did, but again..I am not a pro so this has done me just fine. & I carry it with me all the time.
*thanks Sande for documenting this! LOL!*
What lens do you use?
I have a few, but these are my fave:
50mm 1.4 and the
28-105mm 3.5/4.5 for everyday use. Not overly indulgent...I would LOVE
this. and
this. and
this.
some day.
What editing program do you use?This is where I do think I need to have the power I want to design, so I've chosen
Adobe Photoshop...the latest is on its way. CS4. I've been using CS3, but since I do do this professionally I think it's vitally important to keep up with the latest upgrades.
How do you edit your photos?I love to use Actions. Do you remember our fabulous
House of 3 photos by the amazing
Nichole V &
Jefra Linn? Well,
Nichole's Actions are my fave. Funny, I'd purchased them before I'd even met her...I'd found them online & THEN, when I got to actually meet the genius behind my fave Actions, I was *starstruck*. THEY are professionals! wow!
How do you do your borders on your blog?
I like a light background, so when I go in to my 'layout' you can choose Fonts/Colors. Just select white for the border of your photos...then, it looks like it's invisible! *wink*
Ok...so, w/o further ado...I wanted to give you a sneak peek of what's going to be available in the
House!![](//3.bp.blogspot.com/_TP7t7fyatP4/SfH2CAm70nI/AAAAAAAAAfk/bcQj4HHvoco/s400/tower.jpg)
