Memory, more memory, and faster memory
Today I’m going to recommend a great gift that every photographer who shoots with a digital camera always needs more of, memory cards - but first a word of caution for you who don’t know about camera gear - be sure that whatever memory card you buy it will work with that particular brand and model number camera that your photographer owns. Digital cameras accept only certain sizes of memory cards and there are several formats/types of memory cards on the market.

This is the second edition of the book and it is fully updated for CS4 (even if you’re using CS3, you’ll find it a big help.) The book covers all sorts of great new features in Photoshop and I significantly revised it with nearly 100 new photos.

Is there such a thing as integrity in a photograph?
I got some flack on Facebook about a past post on my blog . I received a comment from a reader or two stating they felt that what they saw in the produced images was not real. Meaning, after running through my workflow in Lightroom the images no longer represented reality. I have gotten this kind of feedback many times in the past. I think people are rather shocked at seeing a photo “undressed”. It’s a bit like seeing a high-fashion model on the streets without any makeup, it can be scary.
