REVIEW: The Princess and the Frog (Blu-ray and DVD)

The classic form of Disney animation is back, baby! Hey, don't get me wrong… I love Pixar and all their wonderful computer-generated 3D movies, but nothing can really hold a candle to classic hand-drawn animation. Disney's The Princess and the Frog proves that this is an art form that will always be appreciated, as long as the story behind it is a good one. Since the story in this film is only loosely based on the original Frog Princess fairy tale, I wasn't sure if I was going to enjoy it, but I'm happy to say that yes, I did! Oh yeah, and kids will love it too.

The story begins with a young girl named Tiana (Anika Noni Rose) who together with her father (Terrence Howard) has a dream to one day open her own restaurant called Tiana's Place. Time passes and Tiana is now a young woman who works hard (at more than one job) and is still pursuing the dream that she and her Dad (who has passed away) had all those years ago. Meanwhile, royalty has come to town in the form of a handsome, young man named Prince Naveen (Bruno Campos). The Prince falls under the spell of the local dark voodoo practitioner, Dr. Facilier (Keith David) who turns the Prince into a frog...

But flash photography can still be a difficult artistic and technical challenge. It's simple to get that harsh deer-in-the-headlights look from built-in automatic flash, yet creating natural-looking images is not as straightforward. Manuals are terse and the terminology is confusing. This is where Mastering Canon EOS Flash Photography comes in...
