Default What do you do with your photos?

Seriously!

Do you print them, put them up round your house? Do you get them made into posters and give them to your friends? Do you try and sell prints or through an online library?

Or do you just download them onto your computer and never get round to it?

The pictures I really want...I put on a disc. I am considering using an external hard drive for the rest. Good question, I'll be interested in other comments.

I have printed one of my daughter, but need to redo it as the whites aren't as bright (which makes sense when you think about it as they haven't got light shining through ) so need to go back to it in photoshop.

I see some lovely macro shots here that would look lovely blown up on canvas.

Seems such as shame we don't print more.

i have 3TB of photos on external hard drives, just sitting there lol and 4TB more to fill up lol

TB = TerraByte (2x 500 GB = 1 TB)


I usually just keep em on the hard drives and show em to friends and family, and in some cases for business. I take ALOT of severe weather photos and nature.

I print some, mat and frame them, and sell them in local galleries. I also sell online: David Clark Photography, and of course post on my photo blog -- for fun.

I post my photos on my own website which is focused on HDR photography.

It might be a good idea to print them and store them in a photo album.. not only for your portfolio but also as a record of some sorts so after a couple of years or so, you can track down your improvement in this craft.

Cheers!
