I've placed a couple of things on my website for you.
One is the list of parts to make the eyecup that I have
on my own camera. This assembly will fit the Nikon
D100, D200, D70, maybe more Nikons. It also fits the
Canon 30D. I'm not sure about the 20D
though.
Click here to go to parts list. The other is the Photoshop exposure blending technique handout that I give out at workshops. Feel free to print it out for your own use. Click here. |

For those of you keeping up with the life of our dog
Bailey, she just went in for very minor surgery. She
has (had) one dew claw on her right front leg. It kept
getting caught on things so we had it removed.
Doesn't she look cute with her bandage?

Don Mammoser and I are offering a Colorado
Wildflower and Landscapes workshop July 8-13,
2008.
Based out of Ouray, CO, we'll take two half-day and
one full-day jeep tours into the high meadows and
mountain landscapes.
We're still finalizing things so the webpage for this workshop isn't quite complete. But feel free to take a look at what we've got so far. |

In 2008, Don and I are changing things up
a little bit. Instead of going to Arizona in April, we'll be
going Sept. 23-28. The light will be different and
rabbitbrush will be in bloom. Plus, it should be less
crowded since school will be in session (in April, you
run into families on spring break)
For information and pricing, visit the Slots/Monument Valley page of my website. |

In last December's newsletter I wrote about
Tony Kuyper's Luminosity Mask tutorial. Since then
I've heard a lot of feedback about the usefulness of
the masks and Tony's Photoshop Actions that create
them.
Give the usefulness and power of using the masks, I though it time to mention them again. Basically, a luminosity mask is a very complicated selection of an image. With Tony's actions you can target specific tonalities in an image. For instance, you can target just the very brightest of areas. Everything will be masked out except for those areas and any changes you make to the image will affect only those areas. Or say that you want to lighten only dark shadow areas, there's an action that will target the dark parts of the image. Then you can lighten those shadows without lightening other parts of the image. All in all, a very powerful technique that's very easy to implement. To read the tutorial and download the actions, visit the tutorial page on Tony's website |

That's all for now. Keep an eye on the Outdoor
Photographer website for a piece I did for their Scenic Subaru Country ad campaign. It
should be online in early September.
Plus you can enter to win stuff too. |
