Steve Morris uses long shutter speeds and low light conditions.  Results in a mystical feel and a romantic quality in the photo.  Utilizes the architecture in the frame for a compositional element that just adds to the mystical photos.

Recently, while organizing all my digital images, I realized how much storage I was using on my hard drives, and it really got me thinking about what else one can do with all those oodles of images once we’ve done massive editing and reworking of them?  So, I decided to look deeper into some of the many online photo storage sites, several of which I already belong to, and write a quick review of some of my personal favorites! 

Redbubble

http://www.redbubble.com

 

Redbubble is an astonishingly complete site for uploading and organizing your images, and it has a whole lot more to offer than most of the others, that’s why I’ve decided to review the “very best” right off the bat instead of saving it for last!

This site is a relative newcomer to the Net, only being around for about a year.  Even so, it is such a powerful site and community, that it earned itself an “honorable mention” from the much coveted Webby Awards!  It deserves the recognition, believe me.  At this site, you can pretty much upload your entire catalog or repertoire of large images for free, and that’s only the beginning!

What’s great and amazing about Redbubble is that it is a veritable “United Nations” of photographers, fine artists and writers.  Everyone there has the ability to create their own personal page or “gallery” full of their work, whether it is art or prose, you have a place to ‘do your thing’ for absolutely free.  What else is fantastic about the “Bubble” is that you have the opportunity to actually sell your work, seriously!  You can choose several different format options for your art and sell it as prints, greeting cards, or posters, whatever you want!  Heck, you can even design and sell T-shirts of your art work.  How cool is that?

Both the management and members at Redbubble host tons of interesting groups that you can join and participate in within the site.  Lots of fun contests are running most of the time, and you can even be honored by having a piece of your artwork ‘exhibited’ on their front page.  Lots to do all the time…you can never, ever get bored on the Bubble!

Another wonderful aspect of the Bubble, and perhaps my favorite of all, is the ability to meet people across the globe from Australia to America, England to Dubai, or Portugal to Canada, it doesn’t matter about the time differences, people will just gravitate toward each other, and have an opportunity to “network” with other like-minded artists and creative people.  You can also comment and critique others’ works, and have your own work critiqued by your peers and friends.  It’s just a wonderful place to go and find others like you, and have a great time talking to many diverse peoples all over this big Bubble we call Earth.  I absolutely can’t say enough about this site, it’s really a ‘home away from home’ inside my computer!  This online cyber café, art gallery and community gets the absolute most rousing, foot stomping, Bic-flicking, standing ovation from me ever!
