How Do I Cull My Photos?

Test your own filters for a color cast. All you need is a reference point and consistent lighting.
I get asked about my tripod spikes all the time. Finally another company is making a set like the ones I have.
Calibrating your monitor and printer can be a bit of a hassle. And you need equipment for it. Is it really necessary?
Not all printer drivers are created equal. You could be missing out on important controls and settings for your photo prints.
I use the X-Rite i1 Studio to color calibrate my monitor and printer. The dial on the device may be a little difficult to rotate. I’ll show you the simple trick I use to make it easy.
A seascape outing usually results in a lot of photos of a few compositions. Culling is critical to keep the working set of photos manageable.

Finding several unique images within your existing photo is a great way to grow your eye for composition. You might have new, compelling photos hiding in plain sight.
