Spring is here, FINALLY!!!

I think the thing I like the most about Spring is CHANGE. "Change" is all around us. I would be lying if I said business was "as usual" during the cold of January and February, but the fact is time seems to be standing still during these cold winter months. However, one of the positives that comes with the lack of orders flowing through our plant is we can plan for change, determine what changes are needed, and implement changes in the services we extend to our customers. To prepare for the future at Mastercolor we decided we needed a new printer that could print more 8x10s per hour to meet our commercial needs, but also a printer that could add something to our line that we have been lacking. Starting May 1st we will be offering affordable panoramic prints sizes 8"x24" to 12"x36". We recently attended the Carolina Nature Photographers Association convention and one of the main request we received was for us to offer volume pricing on panoramic prints, so please check back with us in May, or join our Email list to receive future notifications about our specials. Change is not limited to the business decisions happening in the office. Step outside, notice the changes all around you. I walked out of our office yesterday and looked at a beautiful dogwood in the front lawn of Mastercolor. All winter this dogwood looked as if it was not going to make it, but yesterday confirmed my hopes, the buds are on the limbs, and the blooms are right around the corner. What have you taken a picture of recently or in years past that let you know that Spring is/was finally here?

What camera should I buy?

"Charles, I am thinking of getting a new digital camera." I hear this a lot from friends. Other times I have the chance to print an order that they have sent to us and I tell them " You need to get a new digital camera". I guess since I am on the processing side of the photo industry some of my closest friends think I am a Camera expert, well the Camera experts are gone. You can thank everyone's thrifty nickel for that. You now are pretty much stuck buying it from a part time clerk at Walmart, or Costco, or trusting what you read from the discount houses online.
