[MODIFIED] Digital Night Photography – Reduce Camera Shake with Special Lens

04 Jun

A special lens may help you take better night photos by reducing ‘camera-shake’.

Obviously a tripod or other stabilizing device makes taking digital photographs at nighttime much easier. With a stabile digital camera you can take longer exposures that make up for the reduced lighting, and these photos should not suffer from the dreaded “camera shake”. The built-in or a shoe mount flash can also help in some situations.

However, there are times where your subject is too far away and too large to be affected by flash. Perhaps you are shooting panoramic photos on top of a skyscraper, and your flash unit is simply not going to illuminate buildings miles away. Or, you may be taking photos in an urban environment and tripods may be bulky or simply not allowed. …

[MODIFIED] Digital Photography – Did Someone Get in the Way While Taking a Photo?

09 May

Don’t immediately delete digital camera photos if an unwanted element or person got in your picture – here’s why.

This tip is geared towards beginners. While reviewing vacation or other pictures, if you find images where an undesired subject moved barely into your digital camera’s viewfinder, don’t fret – these photos might not be a total loss!

Most of today’s digital cameras take photos containing more than enough megapixels needed for high-quality printouts. Depending on the image subject and location of the unwanted element, you can crop (digitally cut) out what you don’t need and still have a great image. This is done by creating a selection rectangle inside your photo; everything outside of this rectangle gets removed….

[MODIFIED] Mozilla Firefox – Plugins and Extensions – Generate Passwords Automatically with pwgen

22 Sep

If you’re tired of creating passwords every time you log into a new web service, the pwgen extension can generate passwords for you.

Although some web services let you logon with a preexisting Facebook, Google, Twitter, or Yahoo account, many still require generating user accounts where you need to enter passwords. Required for security, good passwords should include a variety of characters including lowercase and uppercase letters, numbers, and punctuation symbol. However, generating these passwords can be cumbersome.

The “pwgen” extension for Mozilla Firefox can help reduce some of the annoyances when signing up for new accounts by creating passwords for you. New passwords are automatically copied to the clipboard so you can paste them into websites and (optionally) password management applications. And if you don’t like a password or don’t find it tough enough for your needs, just click the “P” again to generate a new one….

[MODIFIED] Mozilla Firefox – Misc – Ask Where to Save Downloaded Files

02 Sep

Stop saving all files downloaded by Mozilla Firefox in the same folder.

Depending on your Mozilla Firefox configuration, when you download files from the Internet they may automatically be placed in a “Downloads” folder.

However, you might find it more convenient for Firefox to ask where to save each downloaded file so that you can place music in one folder, programs in another, and photos in yet another folder. …
