Taking pictures
There are several ways you can get pictures ready for a computer:
- Scan existing prints and burn a CD
Scan pictures that you’ve already taken. Whether you have a scanner at home or school, or have access to scanning services through a photo developer, getting favorite photos on a CD lets you quickly and easily copy these cherished memories to a computer for editing, printing, and sharing.
- At the one-hour photo request a CD instead of prints
When you take pictures with a film camera and take them to the one-hour photo for developing, have the pictures put on a CD instead of getting prints. This way you’ll still have access to all the benefits digital photography offers.
- Use a digital camera
There are lots of different types of digital cameras. Before you buy, make a list of the “must have” features to find the right one for you. To learn more, check out two views on buying a camera.
Making pictures beautiful
The great joy of taking pictures is being able to share them with friends, family, teachers, and students. The possibilities are truly endless with digital. You can…
- create a slide show for a school project
- put together a photo album that shows the progress of a class over the school year
- make CDs
- print greeting cards, calendars, and posters
- design mouse pads, coffee mugs, and more.
Digital is fast, fun, and easy. All you need is your imagination and a few mouse clicks and you’re there. Want to do more with your digital photos? Use Adobe® Photoshop® Elements and watch your creativity flow.
