I just got off the phone with my publisher trying to find
out where my books might be. Though I've yet to
receive my Author's Copies, I was able to place an
order for a supply of books. They'll be here in the
middle of next week and as soon as they arrive, I'll
send copies out to those of you who've already placed
an order. Thanks for your patience. If you would like to
place an order for an autographed copy of The
Photographer's Guide to Puget Sound and Northwest
Washington, you can click
here and go to my order page.

As you may already know, Adobe has released
several updates to its CS3 products, which of course
include Photoshop and Bridge. Adobe Camera Raw
has also received a significant upgrade as well.
If you haven't done so already, be sure to download the latest updates. You can do it right from Photoshop or Bridge by going to Help>Updates
For an idea of the improvement in ACR, go to the
Adobe site and navigate your way to the
ACR Download page, you'll see a link to the Camera
Raw 4.1 Read Me file. Or you could just click here

Dom Mammoser and I have set dates for 2008
workshops. We haven't posted all the details for all the
workshops yet, mainly because we've both been busy
teaching workshops, but I'm hoping to have the details
posted by this time next month.
Just to let you know what we have in mind, here's the
current list of what we'll be doing next
year: |

As far as I know, there is still one or two openings for
my Olympic National Park workshop next month. This
workshop is through The Nature
Workshops and you can sign up through them.
Don and I still have three openings for our Canadian
Rockies workshop this September. If the past is
any
indicator, this workshop will sell out. This year we'll be
heading a little farther north into the Icefields
Parkway. |

Another book in the Photographer's Guide series is
being released concurrent with mine. Chris Linder's
Photographer's Guide to Cape Cod and the
Islands is now available.
If you're planning a trip to Martha's Vineyard or the Cape Cod area, do yourself a favor and get Chris's book. You can order directly from hi s website.
One thing I really like about this series of books (and
I'm not just saying this because I've had a hand in two
of them) is the "How I Photograph..." section. Each
author has a different take on how best to capture
good images, and it's this variety of viewpoints and
ideas that can impart that "something extra" that just
might give you a great new idea or help you break
through that technical barrier you've been butting your
head against. |
||||||
|
||||||
|
That's all for now. I'm hitting the road again in a few
days. I'll have more next month, including, hopefully,
updates on the details of next year's
workshops.
In the mean time, enjoy the upcoming summer. |
