Click this link and see some of the moments that should but rarely get in the album.
We are very pleased to announce a pre-launch of a childs education book.
Is your child starting school next year or has just started school this year?
Are you a little apprehensive about his or hers introduction and initial achievement in that most important subject - READING. Do you want to ensure he or she starts reading confidently, with enjoyment?
Has your child started school already, but makes excuses and starts to fidget when asked to read at home.
All childrens reading schemes have a family character but these characters initially have no meaning to the child, how much more sensible is it to begin reading with familiar characters. This will create a confidence and enjoyment in reading and an “ownership” which will hopefully carry on to the childrens writing when they create their own stories for others to read.
The book provides:
We will initially be launching four books
All you need to do have is 17 pictures within the context of the book and simply provide us with the name. We also include names of brothers and sisters.
For example the Going On Holiday Book will have a picture of the child (with brother or sister) laughing and the text is the names or names are happy. The book also has simple adult tips to help you achieve the most out of the time you spend reading the book.
This product will be on this site to buy shortly. If you are interested in pre-ordering please contact us at
customersupport@reflectionsofyou.co.uk
An added benefit is the book lasts. It is a record or album of your child in a particular exciting time. You will keep the book and in years to come still keep looking back at when your child first made steps in learning.
ReflectionsOfYou.co.uk are pleased to announce the introduction of a new Photo Book. The new book allows the design of the front cover to whatever you want it to be. You can place pictures, text or backgrounds to give a polished and personal book cover. The quality and design that can be created are second to none and we continue to push the boundaries of what is possible.

I’ve done my part this summer to secure the demise of the film camera.
In the last month, I’ve taken pictures with three digital cameras and two mobile phones.
I’ve displayed photos at an online gallery, on two computers, on an iPhone and shipped images to pals via e-mail.
I bought prints from an online service, sent copies directly to Grandma and even made a few on a home printer to carry around in my pocket, just for old time’s sake. (It’s charming when people ask if you have pictures and you don’t have to whip out a phone.)
I’ve started planning a new photo book — maybe two — and will soon send out cards to family and friends featuring a cute image of the kids. I’ll skip the customized mug and mouse pad … for now.
Film? What’s the point?
Heck, even my dentist uses a digital camera to provide the victim, uh, client, with on-the-spot before-and-after shots of the grisly work that was done.
The demise of film is not a new story; its waning relevance, particularly for everyday snapshots, has been well-documented. But the trend continues to accelerate, and, frankly, for good reason.
The options of what one can do with a digital image are only limited by your imagination, while the number of gadgets that can take those images are often just an arm’s length away. The biggest issue people have is an overload of great shots and not enough available space on desks, shelves and walls to display them. (Unless you get a nice digital frame, of course.)
As always, the numbers provide compelling evidence. From May 2006 to May 2007, the volume of prints made from digital cameras grew by 34 percent. The most stellar growth for that period came from online photo services, where print orders soared by 80 percent, according to the Photo Marketing Association International.
That increase is because of a number of factors, including the growth of high-speed Web access. Plus, those outfits set up on line offer an increasingly wide array of products, from holiday cards to high quality photo books, that just scream for an adorable memories of your kid. When doing a high quality book imagine the fun will have when they grow up, because they will still be around and not stuffed in that box.
Camera sales tell the story, too. Film camera sales fell by 49 percent in May, compared with the year-earlier period, while digital camera sales increased by 5 percent, PMAI data show. That increase doesn’t sound like much, but consider that 9 out of 10 of digital cameras sold offered more than 6 megapixels of resolution. Just a few years ago, 4 or 5 megapixels were standard. Now, many affordably priced point-and-shoots offer 8 or even 10 megapixels. Hence, consumers are upgrading.
Also, those digital camera sales don’t include new mobile phone buyers. Do you know who sells the most digital cameras in the world? Nokia, the phonemaker.
Phones, though, offer mixed imaging quality even if they are handy.
With the iPhone’s meager 2-megapixel camera, for instance, images tend to have a greenish tint. Hence, e-mailing a photo of a new baby taken with the iPhone can prompt questions like, “Is everything all right?” But the photos I took on a year-old Sony Ericsson 3.2-megapixel camera phone, which uses Sony’s Cybershot optics, look great on prints and when displayed on the iPhone.
The most fun I had with a camera this summer was when I used a friend’s Pentax Optio point-and-shoot while we are on a trip with the kids. From all appearances, even on close inspection, it looks like every other digital camera.
Take a look at it under water.
Yup, this camera swims, and it doesn’t need a special waterproof case. Throw it in the beach bag, drop it in the sand, rinse it off in cool waters f the Lake District, then snap away. I loved this camera because I had no limitations of where I could take a picture. It’s on the short list of tech gadgets I need.
The Optio is durable, too. My friend’s camera is a two-year old model that has been put through the ringer on weeklong boating excursions across the Broads and day trips to the beach. Out of the water, it takes pictures on par with good point-and-shoots; in the water, well, it has about as much competition as gold-medal swimmer Michael Phelps.
The newest Optio model has 7.1-megapixels, a 2.5-inch LCD screen and can go 10 feet deep. If you’ve always wanted to take a picture while tumbling down one of those giant slides in some water park, you need one of these.
It was the perfect companion to my Canon Digital Rebel SLR, a 10-megapixel beauty that is wonderful for portraits and capturing a candid moment. The great advantage of these cameras — I also like the SLRs from Nikon — over point-and-shoots is there is no shutter lag. Where with point-and-shoots you often have to anticipate a shot to avoid missing great facial expressions, with SLRs you just shoot when that winning smile emerges.
Needless to say, I love digital photography. But it’s not just because the cameras keep improving, but more because of how flexible the medium has become for sharing pictures. Within three feet of where I’m writing this, there are a half-dozen prints on my office wall, a few in frames, about 100 on the phone attached to my belt and thousands stored on my iPod.
And if I stopped typing for five minutes to chat on the phone, my screen saver will show a funny image from that recent trip.
I have photos everywhere, I can show them off in numerous ways, and they are a short reach away.
That’s not memories stuffed in a shoe box; that’s life in the digital age. And it never fails to produce a smile when needed
Football returned this weekend. Loads of great pictures, any from your cameras?
I took this picture in Sri Lanka on holiday. Pleased as punch. Took this while the sun was going down with Fuji Finepix 9 mp digital camera. Would love to get these types of shots all the time. Still chuffed though so I publish them on here, I also printed a great book from this site.
A photograph (often shortened to photo) is an image created by light falling on a light-sensitive surface, usually photographic film or an electronic imager such as a CCD or a CMOS chip. Most photographs are created using a camera, which uses a lens to focus the scene’s visible wavelengths of light into a reproduction of what the human eye would see. The process of creating photographs is called photography.
Motion pictures, such as film or video, are not generally considered to be sequences of photographs.
