Santa Cruz, California -- March 26, 2008

This was taken a couple of days ago at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. My wife and I were visiting friends in this seaside town were we used to live.
Now that I am back in the studio I can return to projects that were put on hold for the short sojourn to the coast. Chief among those is finishing up a new website design and launching the first issue of my newsletter. If you're interested in signing up, you'll find a subscription form in the left column. If you want to learn more about the newsletter, you can read about it on my main website (there's also a sign-up form there).

BOOK REVIEW: "The Creative Digital Darkroom is Practically Perfect"
Jeremy Schultz over at Designorati has posted a review of my new book (co-authored with Katrin Eismann) The Creative Digital Darkroom
"I rarely rave about a book, but this one is an awesome blend of Photoshop technique, artistic process and photography know-how. The subject of the “creative darkroom” is covered thoroughly and expertly...I consider this book a perfect resource for mastering the creative digital darkroom. The techniques are extensively documented, thorough and come from some of the best workflows in use today. The writing is excellent and copious, and not bogged down with large images. The theory behind the techniques is timeless and relies on the fundamentals such as channels, Lab color, luminosity and blending. I cannot recommend this book highly enough if you are a digital photographer with a creative bent."
