Espresso, check the CHDK site to see if your camera can be updated to do bracketing. My current camera, a Canon A630 can´t do bracketing with the normal firmware, but after installing the CHDK, it can do anything.

Ecuadorian,
This is a great resource, thanks.
I have a generation before the first CHDK firmware listing. The Camera is an SD200 or IXUS 30 (Euro ver.) The firmware installed in the camera is 1.00K and this shows up in CHDK under the next generation IXUS 40. Do you think I can use this to update the IXUS 30? I don't want to trash my camera but the upgraded features such as bracketing are very tempting.
I bought my wife a Canon SD870 IS ang I might give that a go.
I assume that if there is a problem I can always reinstall the original firmware.
Thx.

Your work is taking on a sense of 'magic realism'. I am very impressed and definitely inspired to push my photography to new levels.

those kids are from my shcool and some more school shots here. I guess even you are in one place you could still have a lot of inspirations when it comes to photography. the only difference i guess is observation.

this is a shot of my collegues, conversing while we are having break. when i saw that light coming inside the building i took the cam immediatelly and asked them to stay as they are.

this is an underexposed shot by shooting up the fstop value. i think i used f9 here. did some photoshop curve here, to further accentuate the contrast.

We have a long corridor and this is my favorite view in teaching perspective.

our student again during their music performance. i took a lot but this seem to be my favorite

workers around.

repainting the walls.

This one to me is a wow. using silicon to patch the glass roof outside my art room area

some duotones

The numbers project sounds interesting... it's all about storytelling.
As far as tripods go...
Make sure it's compact, light weight and solid with an articulating head.
Personally, I find the small 'tabletop' models are not that practical, but a monopod is great for steadying your camera and it can be set up in areas where three legs are tough to stabilize. It's like taking a mini umbrella and not a full size one.
Here is an example.

Thanks for the link DE! I'm going to get both in due time b/c I go to a lot of sporting events and the tripod is not ideal for this. I would also like to do some nature photography and I know the tripod would definitely be best for those situations.

What's new with the Nikon Bubba

Nothin new at the moment... been kinda busy but I hope to have a few shots in a couple of days! For my class assignment, I'm supposed to take a picture of a 'W' and a '5', '7', and '9'. There are a lot of numbers on road signs on the way home and apartment numbers around me so it should be interesting to see what I can come up with.

Nomer, where do you find the time to take all these pictures? The baby pic in your duotones set is a great shot...

PS - Can any of you recommend a good tri-pod for me to use?

i think i jsut bring my camera wherever i go...and subjects are just everywhere. i dont know a lot of things that impress me. like marcel duschamp said anything can be art. so for me anything can become your subject. you dont need to travel 500 miles or 1000 miles to have nice shot. our place were we live is the most exciting place to capture. this is the place where our friends are not here...
