Getting Started

Hi Everyone,

Digital SLR cameras have clearly made it into the consumer market. This is an amazing thing because the lines between professional and amateur have become quite blurred. My hope that I can use this blog to demonstrate this and hopefully provide some good processes or workflow for digital photography behind the lenses and in post processing on a computer.

When discussing with someone what equipment they should use or what software is best, there really isn't one. It just depends on what results are intended. What I mean is that all we really want to do with photography is capture a moment, tell a story or just document some experience. Regardless of skill level, I recommend certain techniques that are fundamental to digital image creation, not just photography, but anything you may see on your computer screen. We can get into the details more later...

In attempts to keeping our minds open and thinking very broadly, I will start this blog with posts of other sites at various skill levels. This will provide good reference to see what is important to the pros. I will then try to pull concepts from these sites and compare them to my "opinions" about workflow.

Please ask questions and make comments...as it will influence the direction this blog travels.

Regards,
Jay
