Hopefully in a few days things will be a lot better as I feel strength to my arm returning every day a bit more. This is all of the typing I can do, for everything else I rely on my Android’s Swype and Dictation.

I finished the first draft of a new article and it’s now being submitted to a magazine.

It really is beautiful. I’ll have some photos up soon.
The trip was quite inspiring and at one point I sat down on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and wrote a new article which I’ll be submitting to some magazine soon.

I’ve been beta-testing Lightroom since version 1 and I’ve put version 4 beta to the test by using this exclusively for the editing of the images of an upcoming book and this version has the best workflow yet.

If you already own a previous version of LR, the upgrade is $79, and I strongly recommend it.
The full version costs $149. This is quite a significant drop in price from the previous version where an upgrade was $99 and a full version was $299.

Click here to go to the Adobe LR web page.
