Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4

Leave a comment

Adobe has announced the release of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4 (which I will hereafter refer to as “Lightroom 4”), the newest update to the application. For many (probably most) photographers using Adobe tools for their photography, Lightroom is probably the best option. It provides quite a bit of image editing/processing power and flexibility, excellent tools for organizing large photograph collections, and a wide range of effective methods for outputting final images to the web, to video, to various types of print publication, and as photographic prints.

Depending on your situation, the update is available several forms:

Luminous Landscape: Charles Cramer Workshops

Leave a comment

Seen at the Michael Reichmann’s Luminous Landscape web site:

I am fortunate to count among my friends some of the top photographic instructors in the world. I list their workshops on my Workshops page, and from time to time feature something new that they’re doing.

Charles Cramer is one of America’s most famous landscape photographers and teachers. For years he and Bill Atkinson have been teaching printing workshops together, but now Bill has decided to retire from these and so Charlie is striking out on his own.

You can find out more about this new series of printing workshops here.

I’m also fortunate to know Charlie. Everything Reichmann says is true, and I can vouch for Charlie’s teaching skills, having been the grateful recipient of some individual time with him in his studio. I’ve also been through his booklet on digital post-processing – it distills more useful and practical information into a small text than anything else I’ve seen, and I regularly consult it.

If you are looking to learn from an outstanding photographer, master printmaker, and fine teacher I highly recommend Charlie’s workshops.
