What is Phototalking.com?

Blog: January 8th, 2008

Photography has always been something that I thought would be fun to get into. However in my mind I always thought that the cost of film, cameras, and equipment were always too high.

I have been following Rebekka on Flickr for some time now, and so have a lot of others. Her photography is amazing as is the area she lives in. She lives in Iceland, and between her eye and the land in the middle meets some fantastic photography.

Fortunately, in my bag I had my spare pack with me that uses just 6 “AA” cell batteries.  This, of course, [...]

Photoshop Keyboard Shortcuts

Blog: January 16th, 2008

I am constantly trying to learn keyboard shortcuts. I mean the less time that I have to reach over and touch the mouse, aim and click, or even hunt through menus, the more time I have to be creative.
Well this morning I was looking for how to select all pixels in a layer and I [...]

Flickr and the Library of Congress

Blog: January 16th, 2008

I love flipping through old photos, and Shorpy got me hooked on that. By old I mean photos taken years ago like in the late 1800’s through the early 1900’s, not just my family photos from the 70’s.
