My Role: This is one of my personal shots from a vacation to Block Island. It's taken from a peninsula that leads out to one of the two lighthouses on the island. From the vantage point of the photo, the lighthouse would be off to the far left. I'll be adding more photos from my personal archives shortly.

Photographer: John Croce

Digital Photography: Once the resolution of digital cameras exceeded 5 megabytes, I became thrilled with the possibilities. I began shooting tons of photos everywhere I went.

Digital cameras continue to improve in cost, functionality, and quality. The latest reasonably-priced cameras incorporate interchangeable lenses allowing for greater versatility while shooting. They also include excellent manual control options allowing them to function much more like a traditional 35mm camera.

This option truly gives you the best of both worlds -- no wasted film and the opportunity to see immediate results. This allows you to make on-site corrections and adjustments, enabling you to get the best possible results.
