Sawadee Krab (Hello all)

Last Sunday (March 24 2007) I was in Bangkok Thailand for "Breaking the limits of your digital camera" a photography enthusiast's event held by the PixPros photography community at the Microsoft Thailand office in Bangkok.

PixPros is one of Thailand's largest photography communities comprising of both amateur, freelance and professional photographers. The event, which was run by senior members of the PixPros community who themselves are professional photographers, was designed for beginners looking to get the most out of their digital cameras, learn more about the principles of photography and how to take great pictures.

I was on hand along with Teerachai and Suppawat from the Microsoft Thailand team to host a Windows Vista workshop where we demonstrated some of the great new features in Windows Vista and how to best take advantage of those features as a photography enthusiast.

During the session we looked at
- The new Windows Explorer
- Photo Gallery + Tagging
- Advanced meta data for digital photography
- DVD Maker for photos
- Media Centre
- and lots of other great new features in Windows Vista

When talented photographers get together there are always fantastic photos taken as a result - Sunday's event was no exception. Check out the PixPros forum (in Thai) for some great photos from the event.
