My little girl is so magical. With a smile she can brighten my world. The glow in her eyes when she tells one of her stories melts away all of the day's problems and concerns. For me, having a child and being able to participate in her life, watch her grow and absorb the wonders of the world, completes me as a human being.
For my latest journal feature I am presenting a visual essay on children -- works by DA artists that beg to ask the question, "Is there anything more pure, more magical than a child?" Breaking up the photos are lyrics from Neil Young's brilliant song about children, "I Am A Child." If you want to listen to Neil's song while viewing the essay, right click on [link]
Please fave and comment on works you like -- it is the least we can do to honor the efforts of these amazing artists!

reports, October 3, 2006
reports, October 3, 2006HDR photography is still a technology in it's infancy,but one with much potential, and one who's use is on the rise.
what is HDR? it's an acronym for High Dynamic Range. As it applies to photography, the idea is to take several shots of the same thing at different exposures. Those images can then be merged using Photoshop CS2, or standalone programs such as Photomatix, to increase the dynamic range of the photo (less detail lost to clipped shadows and highlights). This produces a 32 bit image, often called an HDRi.
for more info/tutorials regarding HDR, check out (divided by program used):
photoshop CS2:

I really enjoyed how you explained it all, and those links are such an added bonus!!
Lovely examples as well, just some ideas for your next edition. I would suggest that you lead into the features so that there is more spotlight on them, and so that your readers get a better feel of where the article is heading. Running the article through a spell check would also help out greatly and point out any grammatical errors you may have made.
Good luck with future articles! I'll be looking forward to them.
