Photos

I just downloaded the nearly 1200 pictures I took in Greece. That's nearly 120 photos a day. Er, oops?

Anyway, here's one that leapt out at me as I was scanning through them. Sunset on Santorini.

Hey, I had a fab time, thank you!

I don't actually edit them at all, except maybe the occasional crop or straightening up - I wouldn't know what to do with photoshop if it presented itself to me. But I'm so far behind with the uploading. I think I'm nearly a year behind now! I'm taking my laptop to NZ with me. Maybe I can get some uploading done on airport wi-fi or something.

There are a bunch of actions you can use to do some basic adjustments to photos which are just clicking a button but Photoshop is huge and eats your ram.

I found a batch editor last time. I came back from Sydney with 800 photos from a day shooting family photos for someone.
I ran them all through the batch editor and only played about with about 40 myself.

It's so time consuming though.

All the photos I put up on flickr are small versions because I just don't have the bandwidth to do it. I don't have a paid flickr yet either but even if I did our uploads count in our monthly 12 gig and it only lasts two weeks of the month as it is. I'm so sick of being on dial up speed.

I don't really understand editing enough to not have my pictures go weird when I try and do things to them, so I decided that I would just let them stand alone since they are mostly for me anyway.

The uploading alone is so time consuming. I've kind of given up on titles for now. I will try and get the photos up and worry about the niceties later.

Capped dial up speed internet. EPIC SUCK.
