			<description><![CDATA[ Got my Canon EOS-20D today. It came with the 18-55mm <br>lens so I'm pretty crippled for longer shots, and I definitely <br>need to get a macro lens. <br><br>I thought getting a &quot;professional&quot; camera would make me <br>yield more &quot;professional&quot; shots. As luck would have it, it <br>seems quite the opposite is true. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>Been playing with it... ]]></description>

I have noticed that that somewhere in the process of resizing photos using the software that came with my camera, and putting the photos on the host site, that the quality of the image deteriorates drastically. By the time I post them on a forum they look pretty awful compared to what I started out with after first looking at them on my PC. <br><br>I had read somewhere that this can happen when the photos are resized, but does anyone have any advice on how to reduce the... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I noticed when I took some pictures of my Chondro that the colours came out looking quite dull.  They are much more vibrant in real life.  Then I realized I had a red heat light on and I'm now wondering if this is the reason the colours looked so dull in the picture? <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :\ --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/ohwell.gif ALT=":\"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> ]]></description>

But wait-I have a question (well a few actually)- <br>1) Alot of the pics posted I see have a solid black background- how do you create this impressive matte background to showcase your snakes? Is it real or is it computer generated- if so, how?<br>2) How do you get the little boogers to sit still- especially during close up macro... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Hi:<br><br>For anyone thinking about investing in a digital camera, you might want to visit www.dpreview.com, if you have not already done so. It is one of the most - if not the most - exhaustive web sites dealing with digital cameras and, to some degree, their accessories.<br><br>The reviews of the cameras (and there are a bunch) look to be very well done. The level of detail is outstanding (could be too much for some people) and the reviews I've read so far seem very fair.<br><br>Excellent... ]]></description>
