Well, first they had Ashton Kutcher, playing a party dude with his Nikon. [photopress:look_good_in_pictures.jpg,full,alignright] Now they are teaching you some simple tips in photography with Carson Kressley.
Remember him? One of the guys from “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy” Now he has a show called “Looking Good Naked”, and we think this is the tie-in.

Quite honestly, I think it’s a great concept from Nikon. Helping casual users to use the gear they own, to enhance their photographic life, is a cool thing to do.
OK, he teaches you about the Rule of Thirds in the first episode.
But the manner he teaches it in, is so tongue-in-cheek (watch it!), that some of the not so subtle adult moments, may put some folks off. Time for another look at the edit?

We’ll keep watching and see what happens. Get your tinseltown angle on snapshooting, right here.
And if you wanted to have a better photo for online dating, maybe this most viewed video will help you.
This is meant for the snapshooter, and is going for the simplified teaching methods.
Still happy about taking a trip to MyPictureTown, and that sharing site is going strong.
Anyone want to comment?
