A Better Bounce Card
If you are looking to improve your fill-in flash images, then you need to visit Peter Gregg's site and see what he has to offer. Don't let his 'Lo-Fi' website put you off - the product REALLY works. I have put Peter's solution up against my Stoffen and all the other 'Hi-Tech' flash gadgets available - and the 'ABBC' wins hands-down. This image won me a Sigma EM-140DG Ring Flash unit using an ABBC. Highly recommended.

ToneUp S3
ToneUp S3 is the perfect companion for Digital Camera users and a Professional Alternative to Nikon Capture and other expensive packages. Try ToneUp first, its more powerful than you may think... and a fraction of the price of the mainstream commercial packages.
I've been using Todd's product to modify the tone curves in my cameras for a couple of year now and in the meantime he has grown the product to be a very viable Image manipulation tool. Highly recommended.

Diffraction and Digital Photography
This is one of the most enlightening dissitations I have ever seen on digital image capture. Sean's work here has had more impact on the technical aspects of how I capture really sharp images than anything I have read before.
The bonus is that Sean is a highly accomplished Photographer. His Gallery is highly recommended.

PhotoArtistry
Whether one is a competent photographer or not, with the advent of modern digital cameras there will ALWAYS be those occasions where a particular image stands out as exceptional.
The good people at PhotoArtistry are masters at printing those images to Fine Art standards and they cannot be recommended too highly. They do all my canvas-finished printing.
