Back in the Saddle
Newsletter April 2014

Hi Everyone,
I just finished my April 2014 “HOW TO WOW” Intensive! Accolades to my fellow photographers who labored through 4 full days of “KNOCK your socks off” Post Processing. All the participants were enthusiastic as I introduced how I use Topaz and Alien Skin in my workflow. Everyone was inspired watching my demos and learning new techniques for reinventing their raw images. It was evident that the workshop was a catalyst to get their creative juices flowing as the images produced demonstrated their willingness to tackle the learning curve and experiment with their newly acquired knowledge.

DEMO of process from raw file to final fine art photograph: Icelandic Horses using TOPAZ RESTYLE.

After time-out for an authentic western shoot with horses kicking up lots of dust, our efforts were rewarded with green chile cheeseburgers and locally brewed, citrus-flavored beer around the campfire!
