So where do we stand now in all these informations.you should be able to figure out things by now and build up a good system. Still there are all the software to take a look at. That will have to wait. i am though going to give you a round up of how I do things now that I have taken Lightroom in to my workflow.First I take the image.Importing the image.Then I import the image into a folder on my

Keywords.The most important link in archiving and finding images are keywords. That is when you put tags or describing words to the image. Even though you can in a dataabase look up images by just about any thing, keywords ar just about as important as description if not more so. It is much easier to find images by keywords thatn by caption as the caption does not neccesary have the same keywords

Metadada in LightroomOn o f the main reason that I have chosen to use Lightroom from Adobe as my raw converter is the fact that I can write all the IPTC info there and keep them with the raw file (by converting it to DNG) . Not only can I write it there I can automate lot part of the process when importing the images. I can FFX have it put all the info in the contact panel and even some or all

The new IPTC Core panels concentrate all key sets of properties needed by photographers into four sections or panels..ITCP Contact PanelCreator This field should contain your name, or the name of the person who created the photograph. If it is not appropriate to add the name of the photographer (for example, if the identify of the photographer needs to be protected) the name of a company or

IPTCAs the IPTC code is for more than just images I will not describe it in detail, except for the part that is needed for Photographers and others that like good metadata in their images..Ill try to explain the fields that you can see in software like Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop, Portfolio , Irfan View, IviewPro and such.Keywords will also be a part of this but they need a special chapter because

EXIFEins og áður hefur komið fram eru EXIF upplýsingarnar tæknilegar upplýsingar sem eru skráðar á myndina um leið og hún er tekin og skrifuð á minniskort myndavélarinnar. Til þess að átta okkur betur á hvaða upplýsingar er um að ræða skulum við líta á hvaða upplýsingar skráðar eru í EXIF skránna. Ekki skrá allar myndavélar upplýsingar eins en hér hef ég sett upplýsingar sem koma fram á Canon

Metadata.Metadata is common denominator for all kinds of information that are written in to a file like image files.In the case of image files some of these information are registered when we take the picture but others you will have to add later. These information are amongst other written in a file that Adobe calls XMP and some time goes with the files as a side car,. Some times these

Name at lastWait a minute. We have still not given the file a name. Its right and here it is that things get more complicated. From now on its a matter of taste and how ones mind likes to work.As I thought in the oldies when I started sorting out my images, that my brain would not take complicated system, I took the first image and gave it a simple name. 00000001 and so on. Soon I did discover

Names llThere are simple ways of building the image collection and take in account the old films too.For this sake we will start by giving the hard disk, that we intend to keep our images on a name. To help in organizing and to avoid confusion we are going to use separate disk for scanned films and an other for digital capture.To ensure backwards compatability we use 8.3 naming code. As this is a

Name giving.One very important aspect is still left before advancing further and that is names. File names can be of grate variety but one of the most common that people should recognize is based on the Ms-dos system and called 8-3 naming. it is so called because the files get names based on 8 signs (letters or numbers) and then the dot . and in the end 3 letters that indicate of what kind the

What kind of file to use for archive.Before we go to the next step it is good to look little bit into image files and the difference between them. It can be of much importance which format is used to save images. Specially if format like jpg is used. That format compresses the information avery time it is saved into. Therefore it is vital to if it is used that you have an software for writing the

The importance of good workflow has never been as clear to me as now.When on the road you do not only want to spend as little time as possible working in front of the computer but you also have limited amount of energy at hand.This is why the importance of workflow is so big. You want things to go smoothly and with out much effort. Specially as you can not work on the computer at any time you

Necessity of good workflow.There probably is no one thing more important in modern photography as good workflow. In the old days (just as it still is for some) when you had films you could with out much effort sort the films and arrange the library long after the images had been made. At that time most Photographers where not taking thousand of images each day, as some do now. Film also was a
