Photo Library 2022
In terms of approach, my yearly photo Library page I usually start with an Interactive map. Map areas with no color just means I have not shot in that province or state. . When you Hover over the state or Province it will indicate how many photos I have taken in that Province for the year and how many I have published to my Flickr or blog account. I usually indicate the number of photo sessions and locations I have shot in that Province. This just gives and idea of shooting days, total photos, and processed photos. Next I create a video slideshow that I share from my Youtube Channel of what my favorite photos are for that year. Next area is usually my Collections, which really are just a group of albums focused around a theme. These also can be linked from the map from the black markers. The third section is usually just a collection of albums from that year. I usually break them up into specific topics or themes. All library pages will get structured this way. Also the links from the albums will take you to the high resolution images I have stored on Flickr.
