The book is titles "Understanding Exposure" by Bryan Peterson. It's great book to start off with. I'm using a Canon 7D (with gip) Canon 50D (with grip) Canon 70-200mm f2.8 Canon 24-105mm f4 Canon 17-40mm f4 Canon 35mm f1.4 Canon 580EX flash Neewer 250w/s strobes with radio trigger

Start with this book: http://www.amazon.com/Understanding-Exposure-Photographs-Digital-Updated/dp/081746300 This should be your starting point (other than your user manual for your camera). Read this while practicing the principals that it explains. What camera did you buy an what lens do you...

i have to admit that paper books feel better. It's just that when you are on the move a lot and do reading sitting in airports, it's nice to have more books to read at your disposal. My wife has some health issues and I spend a fair amount of time at the hospital with her, and the e-reader is...

I currently use the Nook Color, which I love. I can't speak on the Kindle or the Sony e-reader because I have never used them. I have no trouble at all reading mine while smoking my pipe (one of my favorite ways to relax). I found a website called Project Guttenburg that has free ebooks. So...

Anyone here a fan of e-readers (Nook, Kindle,etc)? I love to read, and over the past few years have become a fan of e-readers. They are a convenient way to carry several books with me when I travel. My mother, on the other hand, swears that she needs the feel of a real book. What are some of...

One of the things that folks need to start doing if defining "enemy". An entire race or culture should never be held accountable for the actions a a few folks. When I was in the Navy (basic training), there as a guy in my boot camp company that had something against me and rest of the...

Your situation is better than mine. I'm spending 10 min and still getting a crappy shave. I have to meet with clients and parents (I own a home daycare) and I want to look my best. Personal appearance is so very important (I'm even working to lose weight).

To be honest, I'm not concerned with the increase in time. I'll spend the time if I can get the shave that I want. I'm tired of the bad job that multi blade razors due and the exhorbitant cost of buying them!

I have been considering changing to a DE since I am never satisfied with the shave I get from the drugstore Gilletes. I have my eye on the Merkur #34C along with a badger hair brush and good fragrance soap. For me, personal appearance is an important ritual, and I like to look my best.

Another fan of Johnston & Murphy's. I have worn them for years. I'm old enough not to be faddish and enjoy a classic look when dressed up.

You are so right. Most actors that played the part could not convey the intense intelligence of Holmes. So to make him seem more...Holmes...they dummied down Watson.

I just finished reading The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. At no time in the reading did I get the impression that Arthur Conan Doyle was painting the a picture of Watson as an idiot. He is a former military officer and doctor. He is not on the level of Sherlock Holmes and lacks the...

My sentiments exactly. I'm new to pipes, but not to cigars. I have smoked so many (and so many great ones) that I would have a devil of a time picking one favorite. There are other factors that determine what my tastebuds are craving to smoke.

I don't ever plan on retiring. I love what I do!!

I'm a preacher and also own and run a Christian daycare. I do some photography on the side. I got tired of being offered low paying jobs (I have an MBA) and am finally doing what I love. Life is good.

I fully agree with this. I love a good cup of coffee with either my pipe or my coffee. I know this may sound strange coming from preacher, but I also enjoy the occasional single malt scotch with my cigar. I'm still experimenting to see what compliments my pipe. I smoke a mixture called...

I have 2 cutters, both are Xikar. The X3 in redwood and a punch cutter on a keychain. I received my first Xikar as a gift. I love them. They cut well and hold up. My current one is about 8 years old with no problems. Once every few years I send it back for sharpening. I love the lifetime...
