If you still haven't picked up all your holiday gifts, take a deep breath and consider filling those empty stockings with Charity Checks, a giving program that lets you make contributions to any charity with your family member or friend choosing the cause.

Reality and Digital Pictures
This article may be more advanced than most of us using our digital cameras will ever need. However, I found it very interesting; especially how painters utilize brightness, saturation and hue to create a 3-D image. It's rather lengthy but I think even the more advanced photographer will find some very useful information.
Reality and Digital Pictures
by Charles Maurer
People often ask me if I think digital photography is as good as film or will ever become as good as film. I reply that for all but a few special purposes, digital is better already. Technically, my digital photographs are at least as good as the best conventional photographs I ever took with 2-1/4" x 3-1/4" (6 cm x 9 cm) film, and pictorially they are better. With my digital camera I can take pictures in the street that used to require a studio.
