Once you've imported your photos, you no longer need to have your digital camera or memory card reader attached to your computer. If you look in the Source list on the left side of iPhoto, you'll see your camera listed by name (if iPhoto doesn't recognize your camera's name, it appears as "Untitled"). To eject your camera (or card reader), just click on the little Eject icon that appears to the far right of its name (it's circled above). It's now safe to remove the USB connector cable from your Mac.
