Process. The first step in designing any web site is to define your goals. Without a clearly stated mission and objectives, the project will drift, bog down, or continue past an appropriate endpoint. Careful planning and a clear purpose are the keys to success in building web sites, particularly when you are working as part of a development team. Planning a web site is a two-part process: first you gather your development team, analyze your needs and goals, and work through the development process outlined here to refine your plans. Next you create a project charter document that details what you intend to do and why, what technology and content you’ll need, how long the process will take, what you will spend to do it, and how you will assess the results of your efforts. The project charter document is crucial to creating a successful site: it is both the blueprint for your process and the touchstone you’ll use to keep the project focused on the agreed-on goals and deliverables.
Art Buyers | ADBASE. Photoshop Actions Madness | Photoshop. PHOTOSHOP MADNESS is where you practically go mad trying to find the most useful stuff for Photoshop out there among a jungle of bush-leagers, Rube Goldbergers, site scalpers, and domain kiters! In our Twitter escapades, we found dozens and dozens of tweeters tweeting about these 150 Photoshop Actions. WOW -- what a treasure, we thought. However, after wasting about three hours sifting through the bungled mess, we came to the realization that 150 Photoshop Actions is seriously NOT what we wanted, and it would cost five times as much to sift through them as it would to actually do a few. Besides -- how many times do you need 150 Photoshop Actions to process a file? Actions are for bulk or repetitive tasks. And if you use these for bulk photos, you're going to have a pretty boring photo album.

Paris photo education. Is Social Media a Waste of Time for Photographers? I see a lot of skepticism about social media from photographers in various online forums. A recent comment on the business forum at NatureScapes.Net, for example, stated that there are “no clear examples of anyone ever having any success marketing in this fashion,” that social media has never helped sell “hundreds of units of anything,” and that, therefore, it is a waste of time. The truth is, social networks can be a waste of time for photographers, if you don’t leverage them wisely.
But dismissing their value out of hand is a huge mistake. Social Media = Word of Mouth Used well, social media is a highly effective form of word-of-mouth marketing. For example, I hear all the time that (insert name of wedding/commercial photographer here) doesn’t have to actively market his/her work anymore because he/she is getting so much referral business from (insert form of social media here). It’s not difficult to understand why this is the case.

Perhaps he was right. There are so many factors involved in getting the perfect shot. The lighting, the timing, and the subject can vary. Fortunately, when limitations arise, you can sometimes salvage a decent shot by utilizing Photoshop techniques. As a photographer I am intrigued by how much I am still learning about the art of photography. There are several techniques that I have developed to aid in capturing a high contrast scene with extended dynamic range.
The following technique mimics the use of split neutral density filters. You will need two exposures for each image. Here are the steps: 1) Take two pictures. Then, for the second shot, do the exact opposite. 2) Bring both images into Photoshop. 3) Drag the overexposed picture on top of the underexposed one, while holding the SHIFT key. 4) Make a layer mask for the "overexposed" image by clicking on the layer mask icon at the bottom of the layers palette.
