How to store digital photographs when on vacation
When you're on vacation you may run out of space on your camera's memory card and won't be able to take any more pictures. Fortunately, there are several easy ways to fix this.
How to file digital photographs on a computer
One of the great things about digital photography is that you can take lots of pictures and not worry about the cost of developing them. It's also one of its major drawbacks as you can end up with thousands of pictures on your hard drive, making your collection of photographs hard to manage. You may want to use an image management program to organize your photographs, but you can also do it quickly and easily with Windows Explorer.
How to develop digital photographs from home
Printing your digital photographs using an online photofinishing service is a great way to get traditional prints from the comfort of your own home.
How to send a picture by e-mail
You took dozens of pictures at your daughter's dance recital. Sending them by e-mail is a great way to quickly and easily share them with friends and family.
How to create a digital scrapbook with Microsoft PowerPoint
Scrapbooking is a very popular hobby and you can now buy software to create digital scrapbook pages. However, if you're a beginner, you may not want to purchase such specialized software immediately. If you already have it, you can simply use Microsoft PowerPoint and a scanner to create some fun and easy projects.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FP8 (black)
The Lumix DMC-FP8 lives up to Panasonic's speedy performance claims; its photo quality isn't bad, either.
Canon PowerShot S90
As long as you're not expecting dSLR speed in a tiny body, the Canon PowerShot S90 is an excellent compact camera for advanced amateurs.
Samsung HZ15W
The Samsung HZ15W has good parts and features, but ultimately disappoints on the whole.
Casio Exilim EX-FC100 (black)
Casio provides affordable, advanced high-speed shooting for the masses with the Exilim EX-FC100, but other aspects lag behind its class.
Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1 (with 20mm lens)
The best interchangeable-lens compact we've see thus far, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1 delivers great photo quality and performance in an enthusiast-friendly shooting experience. Like competitors, however, the lack of an optical viewfinder limits its usability for photographing action.
Nikon Coolpix S70 (red/red)
The Nikon Coolpix S70 has a top-notch touch-screen interface and eye-catching design, but you're definitely paying for them.
Samsung DualView TL220 (gray)
The technology-packed Samsung DualView TL225 is the ultimate ultracompact for those who like to be in front of the camera more than they like being behind it.
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS15 (blue)
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS15 is a well-appointed snapshot camera for the money with the mixed performance and photo quality typical of its class.

Balancing and Framing an Image
If you place every element of interest in a photograph on one side or another, leaving little or nothing to look at on the opposite side, the picture is unbalanced, like a seesaw with a child at one end and no one on the other. The best pictures have an inherent balance that makes them look graceful. Photos are frequently put in frames for a good reason: A border around a picture defines the picture's shape and concentrates attention on the image within the frame.
Using a Scanner to Make a Digital Photo
Scanning existing photographic prints is a popular use for digital imaging. By scanning existing digital images, you can preserve vintage photographs on CD-Rs and CD-RWs, repair and retouch your family album, and share images with friends and family without losing control of your valuable negatives or original prints. You can email or post your images on a Web site, even when they were not shot with your digital camera. In order to take advantage of these opportunities to use and share your existing photos in a digital format, you need to scan them into digital images.
Understanding Photography's Rule of Thirds
The position of your subject matter within a picture is one of the most important decisions you make. Whether you can move the subject or objects around, change your position, or wait until everything moves to the right spot, you should constantly be aware of how your subject matter is arranged. Photographers often consciously or unconsciously follow a guideline called the
Rule of Thirds.
It's simply a way of dividing your picture horizontally and vertically into thirds (see Figure 1). The best place to position important subject matter is often at one of the points located one-third of the way from the top or bottom and sides of the frame.
Transferring Photos from a Photo Library to Your iPod
If you store photos in an iPhoto library on a Mac, or in a photo library managed by Adobe Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements on a Windows PC, you can transfer photos to your color-display iPod automatically, and synchronize your iPod to your library so that any changes you make to the library are copied to your iPod. You can also limit the transfer and synchronization to albums or collections rather than the entire library.
Transferring Images from Your Camera to Your PC
The first challenge you have to face is getting your digital images from your camera into your computer so that you can edit them (if necessary), store them on some archival medium (such as CD or DVD), and make prints.
