Enhancing the enjoyment of taking pictures with news that matters, features that entertain and images that delight. Published frequently.

In this recurring column, we highlight a few items we've run across that don't merit a full story of their own but are interesting enough to bring to your attention (with more than 140 characters). This time we look at PhotoRescue, lighting indoor sports, an online clipping tool and iView.
- DataRescue has updated its $29 PhotoRescue, the best data-recovery tool for digital photographic media that we've tested. We've asked Pierre Vandevenne for details. Updates usually involve new Raw formats.
- Strobist David Hobby has published A Guide to Lighting Indoor Sports assuming "only one rule: no on-camera direct flash. Because that looks horrible."
- In beta, Clipping Magic is an online clipping tool to remove backgrounds from images with various refinements.
- Interesting discussion at Macintouch about using the original iView with Mavericks (it works, which is interesting, and quite a few people still rely on it, which is also interesting and heartwarming, considering).
