Well, actually 152, but 2 are still in voting. Here they are, 50 to a collage. Has anyone else made collages for their challenge entries? I'd love to see them. These collages were made with FotoFusion, a great program.

This is a great idea. It really shows the progression of your photography.

Nice work.

Really cool Karen! I am going to try this also..

Once, a couple of years ago, I tried doing a collage with a photo-a-day project. Had a hard time with system resources on my PC trying to work with a template large enough and numerous layers, etc...

I'll have to take a look at FotoFusion that you've mentioned. It is a great idea and you've done a very nice job with it.

What dimensions are your final project (for print) on this?

I only did this for the web, not to print.

Oh. :-( Why? These would make a wonderful poster sized print! :-D

I rarely print any of my photos. I guess I look at them so often on the computer I don't really want to be looking at them all day on my walls. LOL

He-he. Ok.

BTW - What version of FotoFusion are you using? There's 3...FotoFusion: Product Comparison

I'd guess 'Enhanced'?

Overexposed was my 50th!

Yes, Enhanced.

really cool idea ... I think I'm somewhere in the 60-70 range ... maybe when I hit 100 I'll try this ... did you happen to do a score comparison to show your progression also? Like the average of 1-50, 51-100 and 101-150?

No but that would be a cool idea. It's just that it seems like it would take a lot of work.....write down all the scores, etc. I have only ever used Excel once so I don't think I would be able to do it that way.

In any case, I don't think my scores have progressed all that much. My first entry scored 6.0458 and my latest entry scored 6.0991. In between I've had a low of 5.10 and a high of 7.2145 with everything in between. I won my first ribbon (blue) on my 5th entry. I think if there were a graph of my scores it would be up, down, up, down, not a steady incline.

Great job, Karen!

It is so nice to have guys like you around to leran from. Ans you also have a smashing avg score of >6 isnt it? :-)
 09/05/2008 08:26:04 AM · #14
Wow. Those are really nice!
I haven't entered many challenges, and a good deal of what I entered early is absolute rubbish... I'll have to wait a bit. Yours are excellent though.
 09/05/2008 09:06:31 AM · #15
Thanks for the kind words everyone!
 09/05/2008 09:52:09 AM · #16
What's very cool is I recognize a lot of those as shots I liked when voting challenges - to be able to recall specific shots here (when we see so many!) is a good sign that you have a lot of talent and put it to very good use! You really do have some marvelous work - excellent way to show it off, too.

You shouldn't have posted this :-( Now I looked my own results: 1-50: 5.277 51-100: 5.40993 101-150: 5.300354 151-200: 5.198462. But I'll keep trying.

Btw. Karen, you made some very nice posters of your entries.
09/05/2008 02:56:34 PM · #18
Wonderful idea Karen. I'm going to have to wait to try this but will definitely try it out when I have enough challenges to do so.

This may mean your work is more what you would like it to be rather than what DPC prescribes. hmm

That's really beautiful Karen, I also like the collage you made for the Flowers Side Challenge.

Excellent Karen! you really should print these for your own wall if not for someone else's! A great record of a greater achievement ;)

Photoshop does decent contact sheets under the File> Automate menu.
