Oh The Places We Will Go!
My Wife and I purchased our Jeep Patriot last September, I had no idea we would see ourselves in so many different environments with this machine. The first place was pretty funny. We took Sarah's cheap "woot.com special" GPS with us to Yosemite and Mammoth Lakes....
Photoshop Tutorial: Nondestructive Retouching
One thing I have learned over the last couple of years is how important it is to retouch my images in nondestructive ways. I used to do my level adjustments from the menu bar on the top of the screen, I used to use the blur and clone stamp tools on the layer I was...

What Others Are Saying
This is the best site I have come across. The majority of other sites offer skill training and leave you feeling short changed when the total learning experience is very limited. Your site offers innovation on every occasion.
Your tutorials are not only well written, but do not work on the premise that your audience are not ‘experts’, in other words, you tend to be quite specific about who you target.
I appreciate the tutorials and the revelations you are sharing with everyone. A number of photographers won’t even tell you their camera settings let alone how they post processed. You have provided a number of people with new tools to add to their workflows.
