Another Day Over

Well, here we are on day 3 of the blog. Not much to report today, I've been out printing again, but this time for an aerial photography company.
Caroline is carefully working her way through the quite large list of Lindum riders, so that she can match up people to pictures.
I don't know whether any of you have ever wondered, but being the photographers for a ride like Lindum is quite an undertaking. The after ride workload is immense.
The initial stages involve downloading all of the pictures from each of the five days. From here they are re-mumbered using our own numbering system. Once they are numbered and before we edit or delete any images, the whole five days worth of photographs are burned to a DVD or two. This ensures that we always have a copy of all of the photos taken, just in case ....
Next, Caroline spends quite a few days editing the images, cropping, colour correcting and enhancing if needed. Her eyes get squarer by the hour. Once each days images are edited, they are broken down into 'print'folders, each containing 40 images, which makes it easier for me when I get to the print stage. After all five days are edited and divided into their print folders, they are again Burned to DVD.
Now it's off to the print shop for me, where I personally print every image that gets sent out. I'm lucky that I have access to this facility, which came about by using the connections and friendships I made in my previous Job, which was Sales and Service Engineer, for Konica Minolta Photo Imaging UK LTD......
