Just bought my copy, and it's gorgeous on the iPad. 

Full of beauty and inspiration… 
You'll love it!!
I really want a coffee table version of this, +Karen Hutton!

I'll admit it, I'm still pretty stoked about my first eBook!!
It's a Flatbook, which is even cooler. And…I'll even come out and admit this it out loud… I'm getting uncommon, kidlike delight over it being splashed all over the home page for this short window of time that splashage is occurring.

I hope you'll check it out – and maybe even consider giving yourself or a friend something calming, relaxing and inspiring to enjoy, in these uncommonly un-calm days. It seems the timing couldn't be better.
I hope it helps even one person find a little more peace and respite.  

On another note, it really is an amazing feeling to finish something and see it come to life in front of your eyes. What have been your experiences along these lines? And what do you hope to complete in 2013? I'm curious!

PS… if you like the book and feel so inspired… I'd love it if you left a wee comment and rating. Folks in my life who like numbers are kind of salivating for that. I wish they'd stop that!

I wanted to create a book that evoked that childlike desire to soak in pretty pictures and a good story…

Apparently, I just resigned as CEO of Intersil

Funny, didn't even know I had that job 😉
I wonder if there's a golden parachute somewhere nearby…

Tuesday night! Another great +The Photoshop Show  +The Photoshop Show episode will be live, 6pm Pacific, 9pm eastern. with hosts +Jan Kabili and +Ron Clifford.
Catch the stream in Ron's feed, and there will be a live chat room for all.

I'm looking forward to the Hangout with special guest  +Ali Elhajj showing some of his great HDR techniques!

I always learn from these sessions…and they're fun too!

Reshared post from +Ron Clifford

+Jan Kabili Myself +Ron Clifford Joined by our always fantastic panel are excited to bring you techniques you can actually use!  and to help us do that +Ali Elhajj Is joining us to to talk about ad demonstrate editing single and multiple raw HDR with Photomatix, Lightroom and Photoshop!

This is a very popular topic and Ali will help us demystify the secrets behind the techniques to get stunning images.

A Little bit about Ali:
"I'm an Orlando based Photographer and educator specializing in HDR photography.  My style borders on the surreal and I am drawn to elegance and highly dramatic scenes full of tension and conflict:  I revel in the moments before a storm.  I teach workshops regularly and am always up for a good photowalk."

Other Tidbits: I'm a canon shooter and spend most of my editing time in photoshop and lightroom.  I use photomatix for HDR.  I also run a non-profit that delivers Christmas gifts to orphans, children with special needs and children suffering from post-traumatic stress in Jerusalem and Bethlehem.

Lots of fun and "thought processing." What are you thinking about as you're processing photos?
…and +Karen Hutton even shares some of her sound-effect equivalents for Photoshop feature names!

We're doing it again!
We had such a great time with +Karen Hutton taking us through a full workflow process start-to-finish, we're going to do it again on Tuesday evening.

This is an informal session about taking that straight-out-of-camera image and shepherding it through to the final version, ready for posting or printing.

We also had a great set of guests to hangout with us and talk about life issues affecting G+ photographers, like how to balance your time! We'll have lots more interesting conversation this time too..
I call it Processing+Inspiration = Processpiration!

We'll have others on board for this session too, including
+Ron Clifford +Annette Biggers +Jeff Moreau +Elizabeth Hahn and perhaps a couple more surprises…

At show time you'll find the live stream in +Karen Hutton's stream,
…and we'll have a chat room available for everyone at:
http://dbclick.org/InProcessChat2

You can catch the replay of our Nov 20 session here:
