Xview Programming Manual: An OPEN LOOK Toolkit for… por Dan Heller

It's a great book, but unless you own something from the late, lamented, Sun Microsystems, and it's oh, so very old, this book is merely a curiosity. I know very few architectures still running Motif. I know of NONE that are running OPEN LOOK (aka XView). Still, it's a nice thing to have in your library, as a reference, if for no other purpose.

I only used it when converting from OLT into Motif; I never ever created a system in it. It was very useful for that, and it may be that someone may still run into some old code somewhere.

Digital Travel Photography (A Lark Photography Book) por Dan Heller

Absolutely a great book for beginners and immediate photographers. In a easy to follow manner, the author slowly explains rules, cameras, lenses, filters, bags, tripods, and other useful accessories.

He has many suggestions for photographing, people, places, extended exposures for showing movement, fireworks, lightning and star trails.

This book covers everything. Highly recommended.
