My goal is to purchase new updated equipment that can handle the software needed to continue editing my photography. This includes both future goals (stated later) as well as images I am unable to edit due to the limitations of my current computer. If all are completed successfully within the project timeline of two months, I would consider this project a success. Purchase new equipment. Maintain budgeted price for specified equipment. Be able to process and edit current collection of un-editable images (due to current computing limitations). Be able to create large, multi-image panoramas. Explore new techniques in image-stacking for astrophotography. Complete and edit a multiple exposure time-lapse sequence of either HDR images or long exposure photos.
The checklist from my evaluation plan is as follows: [x] Purchase equipment [x] Maintain budgeted price - very little changed as Apple has some pretty homogenized price points. [x] Processed a good number of previously un-editable images, including many panoramas, etc. [x] I have begun exploring some astrophotography techniques, consider this one 'in progress' [ ] Complete and edit a time lapse sequence... the trip that I aimed to shoot a series of these was a tad compromised due to travel plan changes. I have since edited a few time lapses on the new computer, but aim to shoot a series of HDR images for such a purpose later this spring. The trip did allow for a greater series of panoramas and other such landscape shots and have been editing those instead. I don't see this as a miss of a goal, just an adjustment of my artistic desires.
