Thanks. That is what I'm looking for. I'm aware that using shortcuts is fine with the few digital
images I currently have but will be hard work as my collection builds up.

The problem with physical photographs is locating the actual transparencies, especially when I
haven't put them back in the source file after taking them out!

How did you know? :)

Actually, I have a wall of boot boxes near my desk, some with just a year written on them, some with
the name of a trip. Inside are slide boxes. My "active" slides (ones I may use soon, have just used
or am using) are in slide sleeves stacked up next to the light box. Slides I have used and may want
again are in slide sleeves in another pile of boot boxes. I also have a filing cabinet that's been
full for years. This system evolved over time and I lost control of it many years ago. Give me a few
years and I could sort it out!

That is a danger! Sometimes photographs appear with garbled or inaccurate captions.

I ask the publisher what type of captions they want - short, long, detailed, descriptive etc. With
slides I put the caption on a sticky label, using Cradoc Caption Writer, and send a printed list.
With books I usually get page proofs so I can check the captions are correct. With magazine articles
this doesn't often happen.

Guidebook pictures of hills are often taken from another hill that isn't included in the walk
described.

The best viewpoints are often from lower hills in an area, especially isolated ones. Sgurr na Stri
is only 494 metres high but it's a superb viewpoint for the Cuillin on Skye. (Not that anyone would
describe Sgurr na Stri as boring).

My memory is pretty good too but I have sometimes taken photos of a view from a series of summits in
an area and not been sure years later where each version of the view was taken.

I have a set of photos of the Cuillin taken from Sgurr na Stri that range from wide angle views
showing the whole range down to sea level to telephoto shots of individual summits.

Who are your intended audience? Your pictures are marvellous but why would people suddenly think
"ooh I must see pictures of Snowdon now" for example? If you can think of reasons, this would help
your categorization.

So you reckon I should put my mushroom photos into a mushroom folder rather than in my Ystradfellte
folder then?

I also have pictures of sky or sea which could have been taken anywhere. If I have specific sky and
mushroom folders then all the pictures in them will be very similar, but I was thinking that if I
included them in the area they were taken they would add variety. Also, it's like saying "these are
the kind of mushrooms that you can expect to find in this area".

Well if the foreground is important then I may. Views from Llyn y Fan Fawr for example (good view of
the rest of the Beacons from there).

Why so cynical? If I knew which method I wanted to use I wouldn't have asked the question. The act
of sorting photos has been giving me headaches for nearly 20 years, and I'm still undecided about
the best way to do it!

True, but storing photos chronologically in the order they were taken, one folder per day or trip,
is the simplest, with a database to deal with all the different categories.

My current sorting problem relates to a relatively small number of selected processed images, most
of which are being sorted with a new website layout in mind, so I don't really want multiple
categories for each photo, I just want to put each photo in the most appropriate place.

You're the first person to mention this Chris, and it's exactly what I've been thinking about. Many
comments have been made about "boring hills" in the past, but of course it's not just the hill but
the views that have to be considered. Many boring hills make great viewpoints and you may want to
visit an area not just for the area itself but for what you can see from there. You get a terrific
view of the Glyders from Pen yr Ole Wen, but the "view" belongs to the Carneddau, not the Glyders.

> What happens if someone wants photos of views from Cadair Idris? Would you remember you had a
> photo of Snowdon taken from Cadair Idris?

In this particular case yes, since it's a vivid memory, but even if I didn't remember, it's fair
to assume that if I've climbed a particular mountain then I probably took photos of the views
from there.

As I've said, this is not a problem for my main photo database, which will use different categories
and keywords, but in this particular case I'm sorting photos for my website, which I want to
organise by area, so I have to decide whether I want to show what each area looks like (from a
variety of viewpoints) or whether I want to show what can be seen when walking in that area.

After what's been said I'm inclined to agree with the subject based approach, using titles such as
"Snowdon from Moel Hebog" or "Snowdon from Glyder Fawr" and so on, which will indicate where you
have to go to get those views.

I've just realised that there's another issue. Photographs of a mountain range taken from an
adjacent mountain range will often tend to be wide angle shots showing multiple summits, whereas
shots taken closer up within the same area will often be of single summits (although this can also
be done from other areas with a telephoto lens).

So it's possible to make a clear distinction between an "area view" and a "single subject view", so
such photos can be sorted separately. This idea fits in well with my website redesign plans.

Phew,

Who thought sorting photos could be such a worthy topic of conversation? Simple soul that
I am would:

Put Mountains in the Mountains Folder Flies in the Wildlife Folder Seaviews shots in a
Coastal Folder

and keep mushrooms in the dark and feed them b******t or is that too simple?

:eek:)

PS: Not quite sure about Seaviews with submarine shots though, might have to be a sub folder innit.

If you've already got a mushroom category on your website, then yes. All I'm saying is put them in
the folder that someone would find if they were browsing your website and looking for something. If
you were specialising in macro shots, then you could have a fly folder, a mushroom folder, an ant
folder, etc. Assuming you're not going to have a mushroom folder on your website (I'm guessing
you're not, as you're a landscape photographer), put it in the Ystradfellte folder.

I don't know, just an obervation, though it's not the most exciting method.. But if you do this
using the captions or keywords, you could find images using the same search methods mentioned

Well most people who've replied have said the same so there's obviously a strong preference for
subject rather than viewpoint, so I'll probably go with that, unless the foreground seems more
important.

Provided you don't need advanced features it seems fine.

It does seem highly usable, but the distinction between consumer and professional is not snobbery.
There are certain features that professionals need and if a program doesn't offer those options then
it's of no use to them.

Ugh! It opens the actual folder window! That's no good to me, I never use "windows" as such. I
browse all my images using ACDSee and do all my file operations in Total Commander. IMatch
allows you to browse your images by the original folders or by categories and by various types
of search results.

No, captions are captions, keywords are keywords. Different things entirely. I believe captions are
stored in IPTC data fields, which album also doesn't support.

To quote IMatch;

"This section describes the support for IPTC (International Press Telecommunications Council) and
NAA (Newspaper Association of America) image information. The IPTC/NAA standard is a metadata model
for associating additional information with all types of digital media. The IPTC standard has been
widely adopted by the Digital Image Industry and within the Publishing and Printing Business."

> because you *can* do it *if* you need to.

I regularly look at exif data to distinguish different photos. As I've said, I often photograph the
same scene in different ways, using the same composition I may try different combinations of shutter
speed, aperture and film speed. Just looking at the thumbnails I can't tell them apart, so a quick
look at the exif data is necessary. For example one shot might be very grainy due to a faster film
speed, but I can't tell that from the thumbnail.

The time of day the photo was taken is also important to me, because of the angle of the light and
it can sometimes be very useful to check the settings used to take a good photograph in order to
repeat the effect. Often bad photographs are more instructive than good ones. If there's something
wrong with an image (blurred, partly out of focus, etc.) checking the settings used will tell me why
so that I can avoid making the same mistake next time.

IMatch says;

"Image files created with digital cameras store metadata along with the raw image data. This
metadata may be a valuable information resource for your image database."

I would. It's not suitable for professionals.

Now that you mention it, why don't they? Perhaps they'll design one in the future, or perhaps they
won't bother since there are other good apps available.

I did mention this in my original post, but perhaps I didn't stress it strongly enough. No one else
seemed to notice either. I wrote;

"Obviously in a database I can use keywords and categories to put the same photo in multiple
locations, but I'm trying to decide where to physically store the files.

Not only that, but I'm redesigning my website with an area-based structure, so I also have to decide
in which area to put each photo on my site."

Well I've looked hard for it but I can't find a collection tab or any mention of it anywhere.

But since you mentioned Alamy, don't you think it's important to include proper captioning,
copyright and keyword information with your photos, in the official IPTC and EXIF data formats?

Well I reckon I must be up to at least 35,000 photos now, maybe even as much as 40,000 (I really
must count them properly).

At the moment it's mainly my digital images that need databasing, I haven't yet scanned many film
shots (not properly anyway, at full size suitable for printing).

I've now got the definite stats on my digital collection. So far I've taken exactly 4467 digital
photographs, since mid-December 2002.

The total number of shots I took with my G3 was 4206, over a period of 13 months and 4 days. Having
lost £550 on the sale, that works out at 13 pence per photo.

I took 3809 digital photos during 2003 (plus an undetermined number of film shots).

So far I'm averaging 320 digital photos per month, slightly less than 4000 per year.

So let me see, that would be around 10,000 photos in the Coastal folder, 30,000 photos in the
mountains folder and a few dozen shots in the Wildlife folder.

Two of those folders are going to take rather a long time to open, don't you think?

I have dozens, sometimes hundreds, of photos of just one particular mountain, and there are hundreds
of different mountains in Wales, so I think a few sub-folders are in order, yes?

Of course there'd be no problem putting all my England photos into one folder. :)

No, and I don't plan to. In nearly 20 years of photography my mushroom photo collection probably
numbers less than a hundred, a lot less. Of those, my *good* mushroom photos can probably be counted
on one hand.

Of course I could have some sort of miscellanous folder for random stuff that I don't know where to
put anywhere else, but the odd mushroom shot here and there would add variety and a spot of local
detail. I also have quite a few close ups of rocks and lichens, and a few mosses and ferns, but not
enough to really make a whole category out of, and my website really isn't about that sort of thing,
except as elements that occur within landscapes.

I once read that there were two types of people in the world - creative people and organisational
people. Creative people tend to have lots of ideas and create lots of stuff, but they're very
disorganised. Organisational people on the other hand have no imagination, never create anything,
but they're really good at sorting and organising things. Guess which category I fit into?

Apparently the ideal situation is a partnership between a creative person and an organisational
person. The creative person has the ideas and creates stuff, while the other other one sorts out the
mess and sells it for them.

So although I'm really trying to get organised, it goes against the grain. It's in my nature to be
chaotic and disorganised.
