Digital Photography Part 3

This is the third and last in an introductory series about taking, editing and sharing digital photographs, and what I like about them.

Sharing

Digital photos are in the ideal format for sharing with others. They are easily uploaded to a computer and then can be shared with friends, family or for professional use through various different methods.

Email: just attach as a jpeg and then share them with whoever you would like.

Disc: One thing I miss with digital images is having photo albums, I don’t tend to print them out as much as I would like. But burning images to disc allows me to share them with others on a slideshow on my television.

Internet: Being able to share them on the internet gives the greatest reach for my images. Sharing images on my blog is something I have started to do recently. And in the future I could upload them onto photo share sites like flickr or Zoomr.

Photoblogs: Or a website dedicated to displaying images, and there is various software out there to help me do this.

Stock Photography sites: There are also lots of stock sites that I could upload my images to and that would give me the chance of selling some.

That’s just some of the options available for sharing images with others. One of the problems that I feel arises from sharing images in these ways is permission and copyright for the image.

Do I want people using or reproducing my images without my permission. And how can I stop this from happening. This is really another topic that I will look at in the future. But for now I will say that I am careful where I upload my images to and will make it clear on my blog that copyright applies. The other thing I will consider is using watermarks on my images.
