Let's create your own greeting cards

For X-mass and New Year, let's make greeting cards for our friends, relatives, bosses, etc. My idea is just only simple guideline. You can modify from my guideline and get nice cards.

Let's go : )

1. You buy nice envelops from your stationary stores.

2.You need cutter, ruler and scissor.

3. A4 size sticker paper. You will get 4 small parts from this A4 size.

4. I printed my photos in 4"x6" size.

5. Type your wording on the A4 sticker paper. You can decorate with nice text, photos, drawing, etc. You will get 4 small sticker papers from A4 size. Stick it at the backside each photo.
6. Sometimes you need to cut excessive edge.

7. Yeah ready to send : )8. If you don't want to use a envelop, you can use a transparent plastic bag.
9. Ready to send too : )

I hope you will enjoy sending the greeting cards to someone you love for this X-mass and New Year. People who get your card will be surprised very much because your card is very unique and you make it from your own heart.

Have a nice and lovely day

Flash Diffuser : Do It Yourself

You may have a problem with your pop up flash because flash light is too hard and flatten your photos. Now I have my technique (Do It Yourself) for making priceless flash diffuser and it works very well. I have some photos that I took with my home made flash diffuser.

1. Find empty white film box and make a hole. See pictures below: )


2. Put it on a pop up flash
These are some photos . I took these photo at Motor Expo in BKK. The Motor Expo was exhibited in exhibition hall, Meaung Thong Thani, BKK. I always used my pop up flash in order to get nice photos because lighting in the hall created hard shadow on models' face. These are the result of my pop up flash with my home made flash diffuser. Let's try : )

Modified remote switch for Canon EOS 300D, 350D and 400D

I read about how to create a modified remote switch made from Motorola Head Phone from the digital photography board in Thailand. It works very well and you can do it easily.. 10 mins job : ) As I know, it works properly with Canon EOS 300D, 350D and 400D.

Let's start

1. Buy Motorola Head Phone, there are 2 black rings at a head phone jack.
2. Take the cover off and you will see a speaker phone line and head phone line.
3. Cut them off
4. Reassemble the cover
5. Here we go. When you press the button, it will automatically focus. If you press again, it will shoot a photo. If the camera already focuses, when you press the button it will shoot. It works OK and very economy (3 US$ for Motorola head set) .

I used it when I took my fireworks photos and an example is shown below. I will post "How to photograph fireworks" later and show you more firework photos : )
Cheers
Have a nice and lovely day
