Rick Sammon: The Digital Camera: Compact Camera Shooter Rick Sammon has got a great column in our Layers Magazine website called “The Compact Shooter” and I totally think its something worth reading: “…for once in my life I wanted to just walk around and totally enjoy the experience… Guilty as charged. It’s true, I took most of the photographs in this article with my Canon PowerShot G10 compact camera, including the opening photograph of a rusting truck. The locations for my shoots were Socorro, New Mexico, and nearby Bosque del Apache, where I was co-leading a photography workshop with famed wildlife photographer Greg Downing for NatureScapes (www.naturescapes.net). I use the word “confessions” in jest because I’m known for shooting with top-of-the-line digital SLR cameras that produce knockout images in all lighting conditions, indoors and out. In addition, these digital SLRs accept more than 50 lenses and dozens of accessories that expand the camera’s capabilities. So like some pros I know, I’d have to plead the Fifth (tongue in cheek) when asked about shooting with a less-than-the-best camera.” Read more of Rick’s Column by clicking on this link Live Type with Adobe Illustrator Today, Jeff Witchel takes us along some of the features of using Live Type in Adobe Illustrator.
