It's inexpensive, easy to use, and features a sure flash that au to m atically re c h a rg es, so you w on't m iss a shot. G et in close, they w o n 't bite -- W hen y o u 're ta k in g p ic tu re s o f M om and D ad, get a little closer -- preferably about four to five feet away, putting them about a third o f the w ay dow n from the top and sides o f the fram e. G ive the gift o f technology -- M ake it sim ple for M om , D ad or the G randparents to photograph oncein -a-lifetim e m om ents by giving th em a K odak A dvantix 3700ix cam era. D esigned for the A dvanced Photo System , it features drop-in film loading and a choice o f three print form ats (classic, group, and panoram ic) from the sam e roll o f film . Position your subjects with the best angles and the best light -- H ave M om and Dad stand with the sun o ff to the side or over their shoulders so th ey 're not squinting from sunlight. And use the flash even w hen y o u 're outdoors; it will help you avoid unw anted shadows. R em em ber the basics -- W hen it com es tim e to take the picture, push the shutter button lightly and use your other hand to steady the shot. Also, be sure to have a quality film in your cam era.

Be cam era happy -- Be sure to take a lot o f pictures, even m ultiple shots o f the sam e scene. T he m ore shots you take, the less room there is for error and the better your chances for getting that truly "clas sic" photo. For m ore tips on taking better pictures, consum ers can call the Kodak Inform ation C enter at 1-800242-2424, or visit Kodak on the Internet at http://w w w .kodak.com . T he earliest M other's Day can be traced back to ancient Greece where Rhea, M other o f the Gods, was honored. This tradi tion o f honoring m others was brought to the United States in 1914, when President Wilson declared the second Sunday o f M ay M o th e r's Day. Since then, all children have been challenged w ith w ays to express their love and gratitude to mom. To ease gift-giving woes, here are some ideas that are sure to touch m om 's heart. Give her serenity -- Mom will be able to relax and rejuvenate herself with an indulgent set o f bath and fra grance item s from I C oloniali. Packaged in a handy wire basket, the set includes D eep M assage Body Cream w ith M yrrh, E ffervescent B ath T ablets w ith G inseng, Strengthening Thailandese Shower Cream with H ibiscus and Aromatic Soap with Ulipe Butter. Give her peace -- Alviero Martini Donna, a floral, fruity, oriental fra grance will transport mom to an oasis of tranquillity. Give her the royal treatment -- Treat mom like a queen with some thing she would never buy herself: an elegant dress. The Worth C o llection's pleated chiffon floral dress with a flow ing hemline will com plem ent her grace and beauty. Give her a bouquet that lasts all sum m er -- At Cross Pens has a spe cial co llection o f floral-designed pens by acclaim ed artist Marjolein Bastin. Each pen comes with a pack et o f fresh seeds (pansies, sunflowers or sw eet peas) that you and mom can plant in the garden together. And, if none of these gift ideas fit the bill, a big hug and an "I love you" always works wonders. TRUST. THAT'S THE LONG AH SHORT OF IT!
