TrueGrain v1.1

There is an increasingly steady turn away from film and film effects of all types in favor of a completely digital look and feel. Emulation of classic film grain, a hallmark of so much great film over the years, has some interesting uses.

The Adobe Photoshop Layers Book

With apologies to veteran Photoshop users who spend lots of time in the Channels palette, the Photoshop Layers features and functions are the most powerful photo editing controls available today. A serious Photoshop layers book is always welcome.

Nikon Coolpix P50 Digital Camera

Point & Shoot cameras come and go with the seasons. The problem is, some consumers have limited budgets. What's needed is a sturdy little camera that has some staying power in the form of rich, accurate color, a sharp lens, and lots of features.

Plustek OpticFilm 7300 Film Scanner

It doesn't matter how dedicated you've become to digital photography. There's still a great storehouse of photos on slides and negatives sitting in a closet, calling out to you. Those old photos aren't suddenly unworthy simply because they're not digital.

Photographer Matthew Mahon's fabulous web site (w/ thanks to Lianne)

This is a site that I just had to post, it was posted by Lianne on her blog Liannes Lair, which is a source of some excellent weblinks and great entertainment. Lianne is a friend, who remarkably, although I've known her for about 14 years, I've only met a few of times. Lianne is also a co-contributor to kickstartnews.com - an online source for reviews of the latest hardware and software for your personal computer and PDA. I have her bookmarked and encourage you to do so as well. - Lianne writes:



This is the site of Matthew Mahon, New Jersey Photographer. Matthew has worked for Time Magazine and a host of independents but I think his claim to fame will be his site. Without question this is the most interactive site I've seen without it being some kind of game site. Scattered before you are several of Matthew's photographs along with bits of paper (receipts and such) that give us some information about Matthew himself.

Zoom in and pan around the site to get a closer look at each piece and pay special attention to those that bear icons in the lower right hand corner. An arrow will allow you to flip the photo and get information on the subject and the little sketch of Matthew's head will bring Matthew and his assistant gum chewing "Hodger" into the shot with either additional information on the photo, or some goofy repartee. Truly an original site, designed by a very creative mind.
