My New Toy

I'd mentioned in the past that I'd like to have an iPad for several reasons, but for the purposes of my photography, as a way by which I can display my work in a portable setting. And yes, maybe to show it off, too.

Well, it's here!

What have I done with it so far? Well, not so much, photography-wise, except:

1) I loaded some of my albums.

2) I set my background picture and my lock picture. For now, they are:





This will change. Some casual observations:

1) My pictures show better on my iPad than on my laptop, as far as color and fidelity are concerned.

2) My macro work is either amazing or blah on the iPad. This tells me that I could apply this in real life, too.

3) I have a better sense of what I should submit in my contests. Some of my pictures are simply not sharp enough. It's as though the iPad were a harsh spotlight on my work. This is fine - I have some excellent pictures and I should focus there.

Speaking of which, tomorrow (or the day after), I'm going to submit more work to a stock photography site. More tomorrow on my selections - using my iPad as my evaluator.
