If you haven't heard, there's been a substantial update
to Photoshop CS products, including Bridge and
Adobe Camera Raw. To get the updates, open
Photoshop or Bridge, go to Help and click on
Updates.
One of the things that got fixed was the problem with printing from Photoshop. Often prints would be printed off center by quite a ways. Anyway, take a look at this PDF document from Adobe that explains the fixes and what you need to do. |

The folks at Real World have come out with yet
another great book on Adobe Camera Raw. This
book covers the latest version of ACR, version 4
(actually it covers 4.1). Author credits go to Jeff
Schewe and the late Bruce Fraser.
This book covers not only all the controls you'll find, but how and why to use them and how they can interact with each other. For example, version 4 of ACR added some very powerful sharpening controls. Sharpening in ACR should be used as "capture sharpening". In other words, use it restore sharpness lost during the digital capture process. This book explains those controls and how best to use them.
But this book isn't just about using ACR, it's about
workflow and how to evaluate your images and time
saving tips on processing. The authors cover Bridge
as well as how to exploit the automation features
found in Bridge and Photoshop. |

Last I heard, there are still three spaces available for
my January 12-15 Winter Wildlife workshop at
Triple "D". Winter's always a fun time to shoot. Late
sunrise, early sunset, plenty of time for sleep and
wine drinking....but I digress.
If your portfolio is in need of winter wildlife images,
this is a great opportunity to photograph cougar, wolf,
coyote, bobcat and more. Did I mention snow
leopards? |

Don
Mammoser and I have a pair of autumn
workshops in the southwest this coming year. In late
September we've got the Slot Canyons and Monument
Valley workshop and at the end of October we're
going to Zion National Park. Don't worry, we've planned
this workshop so you'll have plenty of time to get home
before the election.

time off and that you buy yourself something fun.
Maybe my
book???
Me, I'm still thinking of that Nikon D300...... |
