Umm... how do you make the photos black and white? Is there a setting on the camera or is i a photoshop thing?

Melinda said...: actually you can set the camera to take B&W shots but in these I just changed the photos from color to B&W on my photo program on my computer.....it is not photoshop...it is Microsoft Picture It......you have many options in most photo programs to do this....make it antique....add features and special effects....etc.; January 1, 2008 at 11:28 AM

WHY the name PHOTOGRAPHY FOR DUMMIES?

Because I don't know much about the digital cameras I have used over the years....and yet I am able to take photographs. I have never made it through my entire instruction manual for any of my cameras. I started out with a little cheap 1MP camera.....and progressed from there. I still only have a 5MP Lumix.

Can I explain much about the settings I use or how I captured the shots I have? No, not really. Does that negate the value of the photo? No, not really. They are what they are and can more than stand alone based on their own value.

I want this blog to inspire and encourage even those who think they are clueless or a "dummy" when it comes to taking pictures to just get out there and DO IT! After all if I can get these shots....I am pretty sure you could too!
