Last week while my Mom was in town, we headed to the Kansas City Zoo. I still cannot figure out who was more excited, my mother with her 50-200 lens, me with my inferior 70-300, or my wife who continually stated. “I can’t wait to go to the zoo!” all...

I recently downloaded the Adobe Photoshop CS 6 Beta and I have to say I am loving it. At first the interface took some time to get used to due to it’s dark nature, but after about 20 minutes of poking around, I felt just as at home as CS5. Now, how will this...
