Started"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>There&#8217;s an awful lot of material in the <em>Lagoon Report<\/em>, and it can be hard to get your feet on the ground. \u00a0There are a few ways to get started:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>1. \u00a0Search.<\/strong> \u00a0There&#8217;s a search field in the upper right-hand corner of every page. \u00a0Simply punch in your search criteria like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seantamblyn.com\/lagoonreport\/?s=beaver\">beaver<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seantamblyn.com\/lagoonreport\/?s=third+st\">Third St.<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seantamblyn.com\/lagoonreport\/?s=jimmy+jones\">Jimmy Jones<\/a>\u00a0and you&#8217;ll probably find what you&#8217;re looking for.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>2. \u00a0Individual reports. \u00a0<\/strong>Lagoon Reports, and other special reports can be found in the menus at the top of every page, going right back to the very first <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.seantamblyn.com\/lagoonreport\/photos\/category\/lagoon-reports\/lagoon-report-i\">Lagoon Report<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>3. \u00a0Featured categories.<\/strong> \u00a0In development are new <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seantamblyn.com\/lagoonreport\/photos\/category\/featured\">featured categories<\/a>, thematic collections of photography from all over the <em>Lagoon Report <\/em>that show just the good stuff, omitting a lot of the imagery that&#8217;s only of interest &#8216;at the time&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>4. \u00a0Specific categories.<\/strong> \u00a0To the right of most pages is a menu called <strong>All Image Categories<\/strong>. \u00a0It&#8217;s a huge menu, but contains every single category of imagery. \u00a0Scrolling through it will let you find all the imagery related to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seantamblyn.com\/lagoonreport\/photos\/category\/wildlife\/birds\/peacocks-wild\">wild peacocks<\/a>, or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seantamblyn.com\/lagoonreport\/photos\/category\/wildlife\/mammals\/mink\">mink<\/a>, and everything else under the Island sun.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>5. \u00a0Equipment tags.<\/strong> \u00a0Every single photograph is tagged with the equipment used, such as the camera, lens, and auxiliary triggers. \u00a0This can all be found in the <em>metadata<\/em> displayed under each image, and will let you find all images taken with the venerable <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seantamblyn.com\/lagoonreport\/photos\/tag\/nikon-coolpix-4500\">Nikon Coolpix 4500<\/a>, or the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seantamblyn.com\/lagoonreport\/photos\/tag\/canon-ef-50mm-f1-4\">Canon EF 50mm f\/1.4<\/a>, or any of the other myriad of equipment used in the production of the <em>Lagoon Report.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>And, of course, if you still can&#8217;t find what you&#8217;re looking for, feel free to <a href=\"mailto:sean.tamblyn@gmail.com\">drop Sean a line<\/a> and he can
