Cool Capture Reader Entry: A Coolpix View of the Bay
Reader sissysugar recently added some shots to the Cool Capture group in the GeekSugar Community:
I snapped this pretty picture of the Golden Gate Bridge and bay with my Nikon Coolpix S200. I love the camera because it takes good pictures and is light and fits in my bag, but I'm ready to graduate to an SLR for more advanced options. I don't really have any special technique.
Do You Snap Pics at Concerts Despite No Camera Rules?
It's safe to say that if you have a cell phone, you've probably snapped a few photos at a concert to post on Facebook or to send as an accompaniment to a tweet. And although the typical "no photos/camera" rule seems pretty archaic in these days of super-powerful and slim digital point-and-shoot cameras, some bands and venues don't allow cameras of any kind during their shows, while others only allow small, digital versions.
For me, if I'm taking pictures or video of an artist at a concert, it's for my own memory and nostalgia.

Cool Capture: A Glimpse of Galveston From plmonroe2
Reader plmunroe2 recently added some shots to the Cool Capture group:
Galveston, TX, may not be considered one of the most beautiful beaches in the US, but it does have its moments. Every time I go down there to visit my boyfriend, I catch a glimpse of what a pretty place it can be. My boyfriend and I were just driving along the seawall and I looked back and saw the sunset.
Ask Casa: Framing Fine Photography
Hi Casa,
I am adding, for the first time ever, fine photography to my apartment. However I am at a loss when it comes to framing styles and arrangement.
One set of four photographs is horizontally-oriented and black-and-white.
Cool Capture: Mediya's Philippines Vacation
GeekSugar reader Mediya used her phone camera to document Philippines vacation, and posted photos in our Cool Capture group:
Rather than being caught without a camera on a vacation, I decided to take pictures with my My|Phone Dual-Sim Phone, taking advantage of my 2GB memory card storage. The resolution is a very low 96 dpi with image sizes of 352-x-288 pixels, but I sharpened my images using Paint.net, a free download. I must admit that I am a newbie at photography, but I enjoyed my vacation, and Puerto Princesa City in Palawan Islands is still one of the most beautiful places in the Philippines, if not the world.
Do You Consider Detail Views When Shopping Online?
In my review of the Home Decorators Annandale Jute Area Rug last week, I voiced my concern that the rug didn't resemble the product image on Home Decorators website. An anonymous commenter on the post shared a similar concern, saying she would have passed on the rug from looking at the product image, but after reading my post and seeing my own photos of it, she ordered it! Home Decorators was pleased to receive my feedback and have let me know that they've already begun to add "Detail View" photos to certain rug collections, including the Annandale Rug.
