I'm curious as to what people on this forum do with their photography. For any pros, I guess the answer is probably a little more obvious, but I'm curious what everyone else does.
While I don't yet own a home, I don't anticipate having anywhere near the kind of wall-space that would be required for all the photos that I would like to put up. And even if I did, I wouldn't necessarily want every wall in every room in the house filled with photos. I could see myself printing a few large family portraits over the years to go above the fireplace, and a few large prints of my trips to Machu Picchu, the Himalayas, or the deep jungles of Borneo. (None of said trips has happened yet. One day!) But other than that I'd imagine the majority of my photo-viewing and photo-sharing will be just like it's been for years, in a digital format (i.e., computer, iPad, projector, emails, etc). I won't ever be doing photo work for pay, just for my own enjoyment.
I guess now that I'm starting to put real money into my photography equipment, I'm kind of wondering whether I would ever go full-frame or not. Once my student loans are paid off, my career path will allow me a nice budget for camera gear, but if most of my work will just be viewed on computer screens, I wonder if there's really any point in spending thousands of dollars on pro gear.
So... what do you all do with your photos?
