Wireless flash.... buy or not to buy?


 Thinking about pros and cons of buying the flash to my SLR I watched the following movie. In that movie Gary Friedman briefly presented the way your photos could go when you would help them with some external flash. You can not only make the first-plan-person brighter - it can be done by using the in-built flash. The whole magic starts when you place the flash off your camera. With trials and errors method of working you can achieve really great photos which would be bordered only by your imagination. Try it as well as me do it!



Great set of photosof Lynn... just to look and admire....

Want to get a fully-functional application similar to the Adobe Lightroom? Try the darktable....

...of course for free but not as in “free beer” :D Really great tool which can do nearly everything what the Lightroom does. And it can be used under the linux systems only ^^D

Stairs...


Photo-editing in the Google Picassa...really, really and once more really good :)


I know - it's overexposured but it was my intention :)

Small smile makes a big fun!!!


How do the wireless flashes work?

Many photographers do not really know how the flashes they use everyday work. There is nothing strange as per the joke which says that only two people do know it: the guy who invented the wireless flashes and Phil Brandon from the Minolta company. Generally speaking flashes give you the possibility to be a god of light (maybe a bit exaggerated sentence but there is some of truth in it). Want to be the third person who know the inside of the wireless machine? Take a look at this. And make fun with your flash!!!

Low-level linux restart...

How to restart your linux OS by using the low-level kernel communication mechanisms?

Sometimes many of us have to take some steps to make our os rebooted. It is fairy easy thing when the system works OK and is responsive without any noticed delays. But what shall be done in other cases? There is some advanced mechanism which allows the user to make their os restarted in a safe-mode. To use this you need to know the SysRq key which is appropriate to your computer (usually it is the Print Screen key). By using the key you are able to send your commands directly to the os kernel. So how could it be done? Simply press the Alt and the SysRq key and still holding them type the REISUB characters. What do these magic letters mean? When taking a look at the wikipedia you are able to find a table with all the kernel commands beside which there are the following:

unRaw - take control of keyboard back from X
tErminate  - send SIGTERM to all processes, allowing them to terminate gracefully
kIll - send SIGKILL to all processes, forcing them to terminate immediately
Sync - flush data to disk
Unmount - remount all filesystems read-only
reBoot

How to memorize it? This way: Reboot Even If System Utterly Broken :)
