New Here

Hi everyone,

I just joined here yesterday and thought I'd introduce myself. I'm a photographer from Canada. I just found out about here where you can sell your artwork as prints internationally without it being overwhelming doing it all yourself which is great because I love when I print digital photos into objects. They look great on a computer screen but nothing beats seeing them printed and if anyone does decide they like my photos enough to actually order any that would be pretty neat :). It looks like there's quite a few features on here like these forums, groups, following and a website for the prints on here so I still have lots to learn. I posted some of my photos so far and still working on uploading the rest of my portfolio that I think could possibly be worthy of printing and then planning on expanding from there. Im sure I'll get to see lots of other artists amazing stuff as well on here.

Welcome. Perhaps some one else can check your images and see if I am seeing what I am seeing which is several duplicate images. Not sure if you meant to do that or some how there is a glitch in the system.

Thank you! Hmm there shouldn't be duplicates Jeff but there are some similar images of same pets and background but different poses/expressions if that's what you mean?

No this is not similar images but the same image. Did you upload the same images more than once? They aren't back to back but one on page one and then again on page 3 and again on the last page.

Hello Ashley, a warm welcome to you! Wishing you much success here! There are many groups to join where your photos can gain visibility and you can be part of a mutually supportive community.

There are definitely duplicates in your portfolio, Ashley. eg. Branch in Winter with Snow

I went back and looked as its very possible as I tried to use the bulk upload but was having issues with it taking forever to do the final upload so just been uploading them single now. I also deleted the odd one because I made a mistake and reuploaded so it's possible I made a mistake or I confused the system. I looked through them and logged out to see if it made a difference but I didn't see the duplicates on my end. I've been uploading them in a list so all the similars or accidental duplicate should be close together. Maybe it just takes a little for the system to fix it? I will be happy once I'm caught up with my images on here and just putting the most recent ones as I finish them lol.

Thank you Marlin and Laura! That photo is the only one I have and no similars to it. I'm not seeing the duplicate myself so hopefully the system will fix it though it's very possible when I did the batch upload it actually uploaded but not on my end? If I remember correctly pretty sure that was one of the images I tried to bulk upload but was taking minutes without completing so went back and did singles.

Best of luck to you! It'll take some marketing on your part in addition to the uploading and keywording but you seem to be off to a great start! Love the dog pics especially.

Hi Ashley, & welcome from your north-westerly Canadian neighbour! I'm in Manitoba - just west of Winnipeg. On reading your bio, see that you're in the same range of temperatures as here tonight, -20 Celsius (for non-metric readers that's -4° Fahrenheit)

Enjoyed your portfolio, the rescue animal portraits are beautiful. No doubt your extraordinary way of seeing these special souls has found many their 'fur'ever' home.

Thank you Rick and Carman. Marketing is definitely the next thing I'm going to focus on learning. It's been chilly here too. Not all the dogs I posted are rescues as some are my personal dogs and family dogs but there's a few in there. The rescue here gets a lot more cats than dogs so I'll have quite a few cat photos once I get around to uploading those.

Had a notion some of the dogs might be your pets -- the Rottie, Sheltie & Sable Shepherd?

Regardless, they're all beauties....

 

Ashley Swanson

Very close. The Rottie and Sheltie is and the sable shepherd is my parents dog. I just got a German shepherd puppy as well some of his photos are in there.
