An interesting encounter on Twitter got me thinking about the subject of permanence in relation to digital photography. Humorously @pogue (aka David Pogue) was noting the grammatical error in Outdoor Photographer referencing the “sense of permanency” of digital photography in books. David Pogue, a New York Times technology writer and Internet celebrity, while making light of this grammatical faux pas go
The PhotoNetCast crew had an opportunity to interview Tom Hogarty, the product manager for Adobe Lightroom 2. Questions posed to Tom were a mix from listeners and the hosts of the show (Brian Auer, Antonio Marques and I). As a bonus Adobe has made available a copy of Lightroom 2 to be given away. Check out the podcast episode/post “PhotoNetCast #18 – Interview with Lightroom product manager Tom Hogarty
Given some comments I’ve read with in my Lightroom 2 review “Adobe Lightroom 2.0 – First Impressions That Impress” and across the web I thought it would be a good idea to share some Lightroom 2 optimization tips I’ve recently found.

Some very exciting services and applications launched today including a new search engine Cuil.com and Adobe Lightroom 2.

Unfortunately after purchasing the Lightroom 2 Upgrade per the install PDF I was unable to get the program started. I was not given the option to reference my exi
This weekend has been well for lack of a better term miserable. I’ve burned 90% of my weekend trying to figure out what has been causing some very odd behavior on my computer, as noted in my previous post Beware OS X 10.5.3 Bug That Destroys Adobe PSD Files. So what could I possibly be doing that has taken up so much of my time this weekend sorting through this mess? First based on the corruption and disappeara
For some strange reason I started to experience really odd behavior with Adobe Lightroom this weekend. In the end I burned a good portion of my weekend dealing with reviving Lightroom rather than working on my photographs. This made me a very unhappy camper as I’ve been short on time to catch up on post-processing. How far this will set me back I have no idea, but its not going to be a short amount of time as m
