Photoquarium Blog

Here it is my weakest link, my deepest confesion, the truth behind my madness. I have a problem completing things.

Where, you ask, does this confessional come from? Well I read this blog post by Brian Auer on Epic Edits, My Weakest Area of Photography. This post was exactly what the title says, his weakest points in his photography and how he is going about to improve on them. This got me thinking about my weakest point in photography and life but that is to deep for this blog and we will stick with photography.

Post Processing

I would say this is one of my most inconsistent parts of my photo process. I go out and take hundreds of photo’s and instead of taking them off the camera right away and starting the sorting, processing and ratign of my photo’s I let them sit there and forget about them for a while. This is bringing me to a mountain of images that I either forget I have or get overwelmed with when I try to start the actual process.

Printing Photo’s

This on is along the same lines as the previous in that it is a procrastination issue as well. I am alway saying that I need to print my photo’s be it as a framed photo for my wall or as a photobook that I can put on my coffe table for myseld and others to enjoy.

Posting online

I have my photoblog on photoquarium that I post to in spurts but not consistent enough. Also I need to post to my flickr account as well as othere sites like vazaar. I need to get my photo’s more exposure and critisism, I am not sure how I can progress and get better if I don’t get opinions on my work. Maybe I should spend more time in places like photophlow where I can chat with people and get my photo’s critiqued there.
