Q&A: How can I make my Desktop icons bigger?

Posted on March 7, 2024

Posted on March 5, 2024

Countless books and how-to articles have been written explaining how to take great photos, but in my opinion there is one photography tip that trumps all the rest…

Take LOTS of pictures!

Yes, it’s true that an experienced professional photographer can adjust a few camera settings and frame the shot based on little more than intuition, then come away with a winner after snapping just a few exposures.

But not everyone is a pro, and that’s fine. You don’t have to be a professional photographer to have others believing you might be a pro. [Read more…]
