I am shooting in Tasmania as part of a project spearheaded by photographer, writer and technologist Mikkel Aaland. The project is described on the O'Reilly website as "a group of internationally renowned photographers will travel to the end of the world, literally, to the remote island of Tasmania. Their mission is to road test specialized digital photography software designed by Adobe while capturing images from one of the world's most mysterious and varied geographic locations"
Read about the project here and keep to date with our daily blogging and image uploads
In addition to shooting, I'll be the on-the-ground web producer - helping to aggregate and edit all those images we're capturing and publish them broadly across the web. The wheels are spinning for me to help to come up with the most efficient way that we can get our images out far and wide on the web and still have plenty of time to road test Adobe's software and to shoot.
The plan, at this point (we all know about plans!), hinges on us using Digital Railroad to collectively manage our online assets. We'll do our daily editing there, and then code I wrote takes the most recent images uploaded to Digital Railroad and presents thumbnails or enlargements however I want to show them with a little code snippit that can be pasted into blogs and websites very easily.
If you get a chance, take a peek at the website - and enter for a free trip to Tasmania
