Taking Digital Photos For Scrapbooking



The introduction of Digital Cameras has made taking,storing and printing photos so much easier than before when we had to wait ages to get our snaps back from the developer. Now it is possible to take a photo ,edit it and print it out in minutes with the latest digital technology.
Digital Camera can now be bought for under $200 and be 8 megapixel and have 4 times optical zoom which would have cost $1000 a few years back.
For most family photos used in scrapbooking, these cameras are fine and give a large enough photo so it can be cropped in Photoshop and still leave you with a high quality photo.






This photo below shows how part of the photo is lost when cropping to a set size like 4 x 6. When printing your digital snaps from an in store photo kiosk, it is advised to always check how the photo is cropped for the print so that no ones head is cut off or important details missed.







Once you progress with your photographic skills, you may want to buy a higher quality SLR camera and take you Digital Scrapbooking into new realms and make it more like a photo album of your best photos, enhanced with your own scrapbooking style. This is an area that I am interested in and have made various albums like this.
Another site I have which has some of my photos on is Framed Feelings
I have posted some Landscape, Bird and Stock photos on this site and information about taking good photos.
