Drum kits are often associated with wildness and rebellion. However, like any musical instrument, they need to be properly cared for. Knowing how to maintain and care for your cymbals ensures that your drum kit looks great and retains its sound quality.

Traditionally, drum kits have been closely linked to rock and roll. Many iconic images depict artists kicking over their kits or mistreating their instruments. While this may seem cool in a photo, it’s not so cool when you have to pay for replacements. Although cymbals are designed to be struck with sticks, it doesn’t mean they can withstand any amount of abuse.

One of the main challenges for any musician is keeping instruments free from fingerprint marks. This is because the natural oils on your hands can leave marks on the cymbals. It’s crucial to clean them thoroughly and handle them as gently as possible.

When it comes to cleaning any instrument, it’s important to follow the proper methods and use suitable cleaning techniques. Avoid using furniture polish, as it is not intended for use on musical instruments. The manufacturer should be able to recommend the appropriate specialist cleaner that is suitable for your cymbals. …

A Directors Take On Actors

Being an actor is not an easy profession. I understand the challenges it entails, or else I would pursue it myself. As a director, I mostly stay behind the camera, but I try to imagine what it’s like to be an actor. I have great respect for those who put themselves in front of the camera and face all the vulnerabilities that come with it.

One of my least favorite things to hear from an actor is, “What is my motivation Drive by Daniel Pink - Book Evaluation - by Stacie Stacie Stacie People often don't understand what drives me at work. I can spend countless hours writing articles or working on my newsletter.

The value of photographic prints

I have been in the photo industry trenches for a long time and have watched many things come and go in popularity.

When I say ‘trenches’ I mean not the glamour part of the industry that you see everyday on magazine covers, beautiful and famous people, but rather the nuts and bolts of mass producing press release photos of tired employees, photographs of products for advertising for small business, other time sensitive materials with a short shelf life, created for immediate usage with no value once the deadline has come and gone.

My actual primary concern at the beginning of my career was printing archival black and white photographs for exhibition and professional use, art prints Wildlife Art Prints - Wildlife photography and art prints is often considered the most challenging genre of photography. It requires not only technical expertise with camera mechanics and an artist's eye for composition and color but also the patience and observation skills of a hunter to capture wild animals in their natural state. Additionally, a deep understanding and knowledge… designed …
