Wed - More uploads & LR discoveries

We decided to corral 12 pictures into the art category and start applying to juried art shows that we find through various sources.  The primary one being https://www.callforentry.org which has a nice search tool.   We can afford the nominal fees they charge for a submission but it will be interesting to see how the shipping and return goes.  I wonder if my mom will act as a supply depot rather than shipping to/from Alaska for each show?

We're still working through the pictures from our eagle shoot from a couple of days ago and they're coming out great.  And in the process learning more about Lightroom's editing capability which is fantastic.  It's file management function leave a lot be desired.

I'm also trying out two different iapps for watching our account on iStock.  First is i$stock Stat and the other is iStockphoto.  i$stock is an iPad app but has terrible reviews and iStockphoto is iPhone only.  Can't tell yet which will be worse than the other.
