Every podcast has to have a show 0 to see if everything is working. This is mine. Please stay tuned as the “real” show will start soon. In the mean time look for me to add this to iTunes and let you all know how you can subscribe through there. Until then you can subscribe here , copy the link, go to iTunes and then advance and paste this URL http://feeds.feedburner.com/typicalshutterbug , soon iTunes will approve the show and then you should subscribe there permanently.
Thanks To Krishna from PCWeenies.com we have brand new logo. This is very important in having a recognizable brand and iTunes art. Thanks to Krishna who volunteered to do this. You can also hire him to do art work or you just visit him at PCWeenies.com.
Sometimes it is not practical to lug around a tripod. Here is a little something my dad posted on Flickr. The StringPod. He did not invent the idea but has a good explanation for making it. You basically have a length of cord to a screw that goes into your camera mounting hole. Keep the cord wrapped around your waist when walking around. Just drop the cord, step on it and pull up gently till it is taut. Instant extra camera stabilization.
