Photography: My Journey into Long Exposure Night Photography

Compact cameras, when compared to the high end SLR (which stands for Single-lens reflex for all of us novices) there is absolutely no comparison. It is like trying to compare a thoroughbred with a mongrel. As great as the technology has become, the compact digital camera is great for happy snaps, but if you want to create fabulous memories and have the capacity to blow them up, slideshow them and create great art work from a simple photo, the SLR is definitely the way to go.
