HDR old town Dubrovnik, Croatia

I took this picture in 2005, when I was visiting a friend in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Of course, that time I had no clue about the HDR or photography in general, so my camera was a simple 8MP Fuji. Recently, I was going through my old photos, and given my fascination with HDR photography, I thought this shot would be pretty good to make and HDR out of...

LINUX: Setting permissions for user on directory

To give a user full read and write access to the directory, its sub-directories and all files under that directory, there are two useful commands:

chown -R username directory
chmod -R u+rX directory

First command makes specified user owner of the directory, second command allows user full read and write access. The r in the command allows read access, X gives "execute" right to the directories. In order to give "execute" right to all the files, x should be used (case sensitivity); however, the later option is commonly not recommended.
