February's been another busy month for us. We've incorporated a new search engine facility so you can more easily find the images you're looking for. We've also added a shopping cart system allowing you to save your shopping cart, view and reorder from past orders, personalize your experience for faster order processing, and much more.

The biggest news, however, is that we've just reduced the prices of all our 13" x 19" images in our gallery. This isn't just a one-time promotional sale, either. It's our new, everyday pricing making our images even more affordable. You won't find deals like these anywhere else on the Internet.

  • sceneramic calendars
  •    England, Cumbria, Lake DistrictSceneramic Photography now sells calendars through our Sceneramic Calendars storefront. Calendars feature the same high quality images from the Sceneramic gallery so each picture is crystal clear. Our calendars are truly unique allowing you to specify what month you'd like your calendar to start. Who says calendars have to begin on January? Start your calendar on your birthday, anniversary, or any month you want.

    The calendar opens up to 11" x 17" with 12 images and months each printed on its own 8.5" x 11" page. The large calendar size creates plenty of room to jot down appointments, notes and reminders of important dates. And since the calendar is printed on durable card stock, it'll hold up to everyday use and the acid-free paper ensures the pictures will look great for years to come.

  • double-digit megapixel digital cameras
  •    Kodak DCS 14n Digital CameraIn one of my past newsletters I mentioned that Canon and Kodak were about to set new standards in digital photography by unleashing double-digit megapixel SLR cameras. Well, since that writing those cameras have now become a reality. Canon's EOS-1 Ds produces 11 megapixel images while Kodak's DCS Pro 14n bumps the anti up to an incredible 14 megapixels. Having seen the images from both cameras I can say they are very impressive with unrivaled clarity, detail and color. Talk about giving me a case of camera envy!

    Prices for these cameras are not for the faint hearted, though. The Canon retails for around $9,000 and the Kodak for around $5,000. While I don't expect many folks will dump their APS cameras to run down to the local store to buy one of these cameras, they do provide us a glimpse of what will undoubtedly trickle down into the affordable camera lines in the next 2-3 years. Will Santa bring me one of these cameras for Christmas? If he does, I'll promise to wash and wax his sleigh after he's through delivering my present!

  • throwing away your old filters
  •    Digital Camera ImageIf you're an ex-35mm camera user, chances are you've experimented with filters attached to the front of your lenses. One filter you probably goofed around with was a polarizing filter. However, there's a bunch of other fun filters you probably have stashed away in a draw or old camera bag somewhere like star filters, soft focus filters, vignette filters, etc. Who say's you can't use these filters on your new digital camera?

    Okay, I can hear you saying to yourself; "there's no need for filters anymore because you can pretty much do everything a filter could do with today's software." Well, to some extent that's true. But there are still quite a few cases when it's hard to duplicate the same effect with software that you could've achieved with a filter. If you still have some old filters lying around that'll fit your digital camera, give them a try. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with the effects and also how much fun you can have with them.

  • movie - the dish
  •    DVD: The DishThe Dish is an Australian movie that undoubtedly escaped many American movie go'ers. That's too bad. It's one of those movies that everyone loves because it has a real story within a real story. As part of the Apollo 11 moon mission, a small Australian town stumbles to help by playing a very important role in providing communication support for NASA. NASA asks Buxton, played by Sam Neill, if they can use his dish as a backup receiver for the transmission from the moon.

    Don't let the subject matter lull you into thinking this is just another dry, humorless documentary. It's not. It's a great movie that includes plenty of laughs as the town tries to deal with the enormous pressure of the tasks at hand. In my opinion, The Dish is a definite buyer.
