Project Management Professionals
Project Management is a series of strategic principles and methods used to govern projects and streamline processes.
Wow, that’s one for a Dilbert comic don’t you think?
Project Management principles can be applied to a huge range of industries which is why having a project management certification can be advantageous to a number of people wishing to improve their businesses and increase their skills for their corporate jobs. The interesting thing with project management is the fact that techniques can be applied to businesses of any size and structure in order to help them run more efficiently.
In recent years there has been a trend toward a global standardization of project management certifications which not only allows more people around the world to gain an accredited certification, but allows employers to seek out candidates whom they are then assured have the correct skill set for the job at hand. Having one standard globally can help talented candidates find the right employers as well.
One such certification is the Project Management Professional (PMP Certification) offered by the Project Management Institute. Obtaining the PMP Certification, is done by sitting the PMP Exam, after completing the required coursework. It is known as being quite a grueling examination and one should be amply prepared before sitting it.
75 percent of the knowledge required for the exam comes from the PMBOK guide and with Project Management Prepcast you get a series of video tutorials to help you nail the exam. Why not head over there to check it out?
This could be a useful tool for a creative freelancer, business owner, or a corporate employee wishing to improve their project management skills or in the first step toward obtaining project management certification.

HDR Photography: What is it?
Wikipedia defines HDR photography as “high dynamic range imaging (HDRI or just HDR) and is a set of techniques that allow a greater dynamic range of luminances between the lightest and darkest areas of an image than standard digital imaging techniques or photographic methods. This wider dynamic range allows HDR images to more accurately represent the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes, ranging from direct sunlight to faint starlight.”
In a nutshell, it means taking a photograph, with three or four different exposures, and using Adobe Photoshop or special HDR software to layer them, giving you a far more vivid picture than you would have had with just one exposure of the same scene.
Above you see the four images at varying F-stops.
Here below is the compiled HDR image.
As you can see from this image, it is an almost magical effect, giving us a far more accurate scene than a simple single exposure image, and in fact I suspect it is far more detailed than our naked eyes can see.
To produce beautiful HDR images is quite a technique to perfect almost more science than art form, but if you can get it right, you will be rewarded with really special images that will take your photography to a whole different level.
Here is another example of HDR photography by someone who has mastered the art. Philip Johnson of Australia. You can view more of his artworks after the jump.
