Photo slide show and Q&A

Photography is fun
Pictures are beautiful
Images help us learn and understand
Photos communicate to everybody
Photos are immediate

Anyone with photos to share
People who enjoy photos
People who want feedback
find out what others think about
your photos
Most photoblogs are NOT from
professional photographers

S how-off and share your photos
some people are better at showing than telling
To tell a story, communicate and express yourself
if you don’t have the time or ability to write
Compared to text, photos are easier to understand and remember
IMMEDIACY - deliver more information faster than text
REACH - reach a wider audience & communicate to anyone
EASY and SATISFYING - photos are digested passively with less time demand from your audience

The best photoblogs:
say something about you
have a story to tell
show people something you like or dislike
have photos that might interest others
cause some kind of reaction
awareness, curiosity, inspiration and learning
enjoyment, happiness and excitement
surprise, shock, sorrow or sadness

You can photoblog
anytime & anywhere
What you need
internet access
blogging software and hosting
digital photos
willingness to spend time
creating something satisfying

Create a blog
photoblogs are the same as other blogs,
but with emphasis on photos
most blogging software supports photoblogging
and there are many FREE services
WordPress
Blogger
Many others…

Any digital camera is a great camera!
What if you don’t own a camera?
you can borrow one from friends or family
you can scan and digitize photo prints you have

A photo-a-day
display a new photo every day
Thumbnail photo albums
display a thumbnail sized images
click on the thumbnail and see a large-sized image
Links to albums
display some photos, but mostly links to albums
Use your imagination, skill and creativity
