Every time I think about getting back to work on my photography I run into a roadblock. First, I argued that I needed a new website; otherwise, I’d have no place to showcase my work. Well check that off the list. Second, I rationalized that I needed to finish up some old galleries I’ve been putting off (e.g. Czech, Rome, India) before I get to work on my new ones. But before that happens, I should hone my digital editing techniques. On second thought, digital editing means little if one’s original image isn’t of high quality. And you see where this is going…
One of my next goals (after uploading my finished galleries) is studying image file types. I want to know the differences between .png, .jpg, .RAW, and so forth. I want to ensure that images taken with my camera and subsequently edited digitally are done in such a way as to maximize their quality for the web, for printing, or for whatever. I am happy to solicit advice on the matter if anyone is actually reading this site, which I assume no one is. Thanks, diary.
