<strong>The</strong> art of napkin folding<br />

Dy Nora Tom<br />

Are you one of those pcopte who<br />

would rather dirty your formal<br />

wear than unfold a beautifully<br />

folded napkin at an elegant<br />

restaurant ?<br />

It that Is CM case. l>en learn the<br />

art of tupUn-folding, whkh is<br />

quite easy. Sooks on the tubket Illustrate<br />

how to fold napkins law<br />

altracthe designs for many occa*<br />

sions.<br />

Beautifully folded napkins add<br />

a special touch to any table and<br />

enhance any meal. So If there's a<br />

certain dttlgn In • restaurant you<br />

like, learn to fold It from a book,<br />

rather than permanently stain a<br />

favorite outfit.<br />

Napkin designs generally rail Into<br />

five categories.<br />

<strong>The</strong>- "sculptured" designs,<br />

w**tch stand straight up, are used<br />

for placing on the Ubk next to the<br />

plate.<br />

For peopk who like to decorate<br />

the plate, there arc the "Rit"<br />

dcsigni. In whkh the napkins are<br />

placed directly un the plate.<br />

If napkin rings arc note to your<br />

taste, try the "ring" designs for<br />

casual dinners.<br />

<strong>The</strong> "gobkt** designs are most<br />

appropriate for more formal occa*<br />

sions because the napkins are<br />

elegantly folded and placed directly<br />

In the water goblets or wine<br />

ilasses.<br />

For a large party, the "service"<br />

designs make perfect centerpieces:<br />

several napkins can be In*<br />

corporaud into one dei.^t. and used<br />

at a table decoration before the<br />

food Is served.<br />

For breaking those categories<br />

down Into designs for specific occasions,<br />

here arc a few suggested<br />

ideas.<br />

For lunch with friends, the<br />

"buffet server'* design is appropriate.<br />

But fur a Mule more<br />

creatHty, use the "special buffet<br />

"fan" designs enhance any meal<br />

At the beach, try to use colorlul<br />

napkins folded In a slmpk design<br />

such as the "pyramid.**<br />

Any design is appropriate for<br />

dinner. Depending on the occasion,<br />

choose more elegant designs<br />

for the more formal dinners.<br />

Not t3 forget Christmas, the<br />

suggested ideas tor designs are the<br />

"bishop's" hat. the "cindle." the<br />

"crown." and the "rose."<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are several books on<br />

napkin-folding. S*pkU Folding<br />

by Irene Chalmers Is the easkst to<br />

understand. Th? directions are<br />

slmpk and the stcp-bystcp illustrations<br />

are very helpful. It b<br />

available in some bookstores for<br />

S2-TJ3 dollars. OIK has to see the<br />

book to fully appreciate the suggestion*,<br />

decision: what camera to use.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are many options<br />

available to the nhologra^her of<br />

today.<br />

One has the choice of getting, a<br />

camem in which only the skills of<br />

pointing the camera and pushing a,<br />

t-uttrn are requltiJ. IUCK as with<br />

the disc and pocket camera-, or of<br />

getting one where th" tkllls *>f set*<br />

ting everything from aperture to<br />

with the more complicated 13J<br />

millimeter cameras.<br />

According lo Ruth Un of Sun<br />

Photo at Weil Portal,<br />

photography with tl>c disc, pocket,<br />

ard 126 millimeter camera* it not<br />

true photography.<br />

Usually, the photographer sees the<br />

Image at a slightly ollltrent angle<br />

from what the camera sc*s.<br />

With ih« pockrt camera*, the<br />

negative Is much smalhr than with<br />

the US millimeters. <strong>The</strong>refor*?, the<br />

photographs produced are cot as<br />

clear and sharp.<br />

Since most photographic<br />

knowledge comes from experience,<br />

the best way to learn photography<br />

is lo actvally shoot some film and<br />

learn from mistakes.<br />

According to Un, the most common<br />

mistakes Include not focusing<br />

correctly, not having the «r eel<br />

settings, not getting the total picture,<br />

and not loading the film properly.<br />

photography onl) begins with a<br />

For the beginning<br />

photographer, an inexpensive yet<br />

quality 135 millimeter ramera is<br />

Such a camera Is the Pcntax K<br />
