More tips
My tip this week was about what you need to make killer online slideshows. There’s a program for mac, or pc called ShowIt Web 2.0 and it works super. Just check out my Gavin Seim Photography site to see implementations. All the sideshows you see were made with it.

Organize and Backup
Here are the links to the automatic backup soultions we discussed this week.

(Mac)
Carbon Copy Cloner download (free, with donation suggested)
Carbon Copy Cloner Rating Source (highly rated)

Synk (this is what Gavin uses) ($25-45.00)

.mac web based storage (good for small things, but low capacity) (mac Only)

(PC)
2nd Backup 2007.1 (highly rated)

Backup-2006 Studio 5 (well rated)

Carbonote. A new online based backup with lots of space (PC Only)

Now for hard drives

Here’s my favorite external hard drive enclosure
Aluminum case, usb or firewire, for 38.00

Then you’ll need to add a 3.5″ IDE hard drive.
Heres a 250 GB Seagate Barracuda ($80.00)
Hers a 500 GB version ($159.00)

That will do it. Except my movie suggestion Facing The Giants

Have a great week all… Gavin

About the Author

Glad you're here.

I'm from WA State USA and started studying photography in 97. I started work as a pro (using that word loosely because I sucked) using film at age 16. I learned fast but was not as easy to find training then. Sometimes I beat my head against the wall until I figured stuff out.

As digital dawned I went all in and got to study with masters like Ken Whitmire. In 09 I founded the Pro Photo Show podcast. I started promoting tone-focused editing. When Lightroom arrived, I started developing tools to make editing and workflow better.

20 years of study and photography around the country earned me a Master of Photography (M.Photog) from PPA. I got to see my workshops and tools featured in publications across the industry. Once I even won the prestigious HotOne award for my "EXposed" light and tone workshop.

Wanting something calmer, I moved to Mexico in 2017. It's a land of magical light. I'm here now exploring light and trying to master my weak areas. I make videos of that for my Youtube channel, sharing what I learn. I hope you'll stick around and be part of Light Hunters Tribe... Gavin
