There's been several of these posts lately. There are different user names and the member has just a handful of total posts, the English grammar is very bad, and the sig is odd, like "acai berry" or "christmas gifts." All the members have a "sify.com" email address. The text of the posts is mostly photography related, but the content is as awkward as the syntax. This has all the hallmarks of spam posts, but these have no links in them. So what's up here?

This is a trick that I tried today to save a shot 'ruined' by sun glare off the inside of the lens hood. The sun was reflected from a window just out of the frame above the bird feeder. The glare that it created made what looked to be an irreparable glare washing out the pic.

I used ACDSee 2009 and used the automatic exposure correction. One click was all it took. Would PSE 7 or Photoshop itself be that quick and easy. One click-Done!
#1 uncorrected.
#2 corrected.

I'd say vastly improved, though not quite "fixed". PSE has a Auto function as well.

Smoke photography:
Here are some nice pictures and a tutorial of how the photographer did it. Probably interest a few people here.

I'm not sure where the best place would be for this question, but anyone who is interested in digital photography should review Sony Cyber-Shot DSC camera for its performance and quality of pictures. A good place to find about Sony Cyber-Shot DSC camera reviews is at:
