Good News / Bad News

The good news is: I have a lot of nice, new pictures.
The bad news is: I have a lot of nice, new pictures (too many).

I spent an awesome week last week in the beautiful countryside a couple of hours outside of Salzburg (in Pongau), and I capped it off with a fun weekend in Salzburg. Needless to say, I took a lot of pictures. The weather was beautiful today, and I got out, twice, and took even more. I made some in the city center, some during a drive out to the outskirts and some in the countryside at Baumgartner Höhe, in the 14th district.

I've taken 1400 pictures in the last month (that I didn't delete on-camera), probably 2000, total. We have had some amazing weather, and I have been taking advantage of it. The problem is, I have too many pictures to upload. I'm swamped. Way behind.

On the other hand, I got a little brave and expiremented with the custom parameters on my camera. I had been unhappy with the color saturation levels in my photos for the last couple of months. I had been using Parameter 1 (EOS 300 D users should understand that). I was increasing color saturation in most of my photos in Photoshop, but experimenting with the custom parameters has allowed me to get the pictures that I want, right out of the camera. This means that it will take me less time to process images, ergo less time to get them online, which is another good thing (to me).

I promise I'll get some more pictures online soon.
