Wow, here's a new toy for you to play with. This is our new desktop application for uploading images to Workspace. I've been testing this one for a few days and I'm pretty impressed with it. You simply download it from our Queensberry downloads page. Then, when you run the application you just enter the details of the Event and Collection you want your images to be added to, then drag and drop them in. You don't even need to have Workspace open. In fact you can be working on other things within Workspace while this is happening. You can upload to existing events and collections or create new ones To View More >>

Improved image uploading is probably the biggest deal in this release of Queensberry Workspace, but have a play and judge for yourself. It’s free to try! Uploading Workspace now has six image uploaders for you to choose from – two web-based and four desktop uploaders. Pick one to suit your workflow. The upload window shows them all, including the links and instructions you'll need to use them. You can upload to existing events and collections or create new ones on the fly. One of the web uploaders is slower than the other, but more robust if your internet connection isn't the best. You can To View More >>

Decreased global demand and the relentless media working 24/7 to scare the hell out of everyone everywhere. But as my cliched one-liner says, that’s the time us tough guys get going. If there’s reduced demand it's got to be about us thinking, working, and living smarter than our competition. If there’s less money going round I/you/we need to make certain we still get our fair share. And in a crazy sort of way this makes me feel that, despite the doom To View More >>

I have read so many photographer interviews that started out, "I was given my first camera when I was ten". Hands up those who can say that? Certainly I can. I was given a beaten up old Yashica by my father for my tenth birthday. Pity it isn't that easy these days because, let's face it, when film was king an image taken on a 50 year old twin reflex could still create a beautiful neg. So why did we start taking photos? I bet it wasn't for money. It was the love of capturing the image. This is where every photographer starts leaving the crowd behind. The passion and the excitement of taking the To View More >>

Amy got the ride of her life when her boyfriend Isaac proposed to her in a really unique way - with lip dub. I wasn't sure what lip dub was but after a trip to Wikipedia I found out that it combines lip syncing and audio dubbing to make a music video. I love how all of their friends and family are involved. This is a must watch proposal!   Enjoy, Anna To View More >>
