Wikipedia
The word holiday has related but different meanings in English-speaking countries. Based on the Old English words holy and day (halig dæg), holidays originally represented special religious days. The word has evolved in general usage to mean any special day.In Canada and the United States, a holiday is a day set aside by a nation or culture (in some cases, multiple nations and cultures) typically for celebration (party) celebration but sometimes for some other kind of special culture-wide (or national) observation or activity. A holiday can also be a special day on which school and/or offices are closed, such as Labor Day.In most of the rest of the English-speaking world (including Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa, and the United Kingdom) a holiday is also a period spent away from home or business in travel or recreation (e.g. "I'm going on holiday to Majorca next week"), the North American equivalent being !"vacation".
Public holidays - A public holiday or legal holiday is a holiday endorsed by the state. Public holidays can be either religious, in which case they reflect the dominant religion in a country, or secular, in which case they are usually political or historical in character. "Public Holiday" is the term used in Australia and "Bank Holiday" in the UK, although some industries in the UK work through Bank Holidays. "Legal Holiday" is not a term used outside the United States.
Consecutive holidays - Consecutive holidays are a string of holidays taken together without working days in between. They tend to be considered a good chance to take short trips. In late 1990s, the Japanese government passed a law that increased the likelihood of consecutive holidays by moving holidays from fixed days to a relative position in a month, such as the second Monday. Well-known consecutive holidays include: In Japan, ''golden-week'', lasting roughly a full week. In Poland during holidays on the 1st and 3rd of May, when taking a few days of leave can result in Holidays in Poland9-day-long holidays; this is called The Picnic (or Majówka). In Ireland, St. Patrick's Day can occasionally occur in Holy Week, the week before Easter; in this case the three holidays (St. Patrick's Day, Good Friday, and Easter Monday) plus three days leave can result in a 10-day break.The Congress of the United StatesU.S. Congress changed the observance of Memorial Day, Veterans Day, and Presidents' DayWashington's Birthday from fixed dates to certain Mondays in 1968 (effective 1971). Several states had passed similar laws earlier.

Mytcard exposure control method
With digital camera, the review can prove if an image has been recorded. We can adjust the contrast easily with image software. But all such functions cannot save any over-exposed highlight or under-exposed shadow details. Mr. F. H. Tong has invented the Mytcard Method for the readers of his ebook DigiPhoto Guide for Beginners. He finally decided to release this method to all. This method starts with a digital image file, printed on 4R with normal settings. Then a test photo will be taken with the Mytcard occupying about one-eighth of the frame. Then check from the review to see if the white color word Best or the black color word Best can be seen. Basing on the degree of appearance and the choice of keeping the highlight or shadow details from a corresponding list, photographers can know what exposure compensation is required. This is based on the same principle, expose for the shadow, develop for the highlight, that we have with film in the old days.
