August 31, 1897 Thomas Edison patented a movie camera.

Glad to see the LIHD Family Map is back.  Nice to see us all together. Love being able to put a face to a post.  Thanks for addding this feature.

Looking back at the girls pictures from 20-25 years ago shows the stark contrast between todays digital photography and yesterdays film days. It is amazing how far we have advanced in such a short period of time.  Parents today are very fortunate to have this type of media to record their children's lives. Love todays technological advancements. We are definitely grateful to Panasonic for including us in this wonderful program where we have the opportunity to experiment with some of the newest products on the market while recording our current family history.

This is one of the few pictures I have from my own childhood.  As I look at the poor quality I am truly grateful for the quality available today.

I just noticed that if you post a picture for the Blurb3 contest the automatic tag  still says blurb2. Make sure you switch it to 3 before you post picture. Otherwise you have to go back and edit picture to make the change.

Love today's tip of the day lightning photo.

Love the fact that we can now view the blurb entries in larger size.  Nice improvement.

Wow!  Just saw Avatar in 3D.  Blew me away.  The special affects were awesome!  The time just flew by.  Wouldn't mind seeing it again.
