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.

I’ve been taking pictures since I was a teenager now my kids have grown up an I have over 90k pics.

I’m also digitizing Slides, 8mm film, printed pic etc.

Any ideas on software , techniques, steps, cool ideas to organize this and maybe put them to some use ?

Thank you 🙏

Whatever way you go, back it up. I use Lightroom Classic to organize everything by date and process images. I use an internal drive for working on, a NAS for a second on-site backup and a few Pixel XLs to upload everything to Google Photos in original quality without paying for cloud storage. For digitizing you'll need a ton of patience and some hardware depending on what you're planning on capturing.
