Techniques

Introduction to White Balance

Wide aperture (smaller f-stop) decreases depth of field and gives you blurry background.

Try increasing the ISO for darker shots or action shots.

shutter speed

My camera doesn't have aperture or shutter priority modes, but they're good features to be aware of.

8 Guidelines to Taking Panoramic Photos with any Camera.

Photo Mosaics

The best tool for doing these on Linux seems to be metapixel:

Tools

I've developed my own tools for cataloging my digital prints, which I will eventually clean up and release. They are inspired and based heavily on Gerald Oskoboiny's digital photo publishing software.

Notes

Tags + types. Tags can have types. If I want to get really funky, types can have relationships -- an ontology! For example, the "Eugene Eric Kim" tag could be of type "People." This would allow me to do faceted classification.

Collections (or albums) cannot be tags, because you want to be able to do special things, like define cardinality and other metadata within a collection. However, you ought to be able to assign a photo to multiple collections.

I'd love to integrate Greg Elin's Fotonotes for granular annotations.

Leica
