A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Hey everyone, I am a hobby photographer and one thing that Anny's me most is, that I try to get nice shots, but after got them and edited them, they remain on my hard drive indefinitely. So I wanted to ask you, how you use it work or hie you display it. I cannot print everything, since I don't have that much space. I thought about a digital frame, do you use one? Could you recommend one? Is there any other way you use the photos?

I have a digital frame in my living room. Think it's an Aluratek 15" or 19" -- something from Best Buy. I've given a couple away to people as well and they've seemed to like them. It's a nice way to show the old work, the new work, and even just candid stuff you shot on your phone that you wouldn't necessarily want to print but you want to be reminded of occasionally.

The software that runs on it is a little hacky but it works fine. I have it set up to shut off after it doesn't detect motion so the screen doesn't flame out prematurely.

I've found that a lot more manageable than prints with frames -- I already have way too many frames and artwork on my walls that I would struggle to even have room to put more up. As is, every 18 months or so I'll move things around and swap some pieces out for others to freshen the space up.
