Meet You in Las Vegas
O'Reilly Digital Photography Masters Head to PMA 07

Sebastopol, CA--Now that Lightroom 1.0 has shipped, buzz is building over
Mikkel Aaland's new book, "Photoshop Lightroom Adventure,"
(O'Reilly, $39.99 US). This exciting new publication--featuring a panorama of
extraordinary images taken last year in Iceland--will be published in May
2007. But visitors to next month's PMA International Convention and Trade
Show in Las Vegas can get a sneak peek at the galley at the 
O'Reilly Booth #J244.

"The Adventure book is my tenth and by far the best technology book I've
ever done," says Aaland. "It brings together my passion for photography
and adventure with practical information. I'm really looking
forward to showing my colleagues and friends at PMA the final work. It's
been a long haul and worth all the effort."

Adobe created Photoshop Lightroom to be the first truly integrated digital
photography workflow application. Last year, Aaland decided to find out
how the application performed in demanding situations, say, on a rare
photo excursion to Iceland where the only studio is your laptop.

He organized a group of 12 top-notch photographers for a trek to "Nature's
Light Room," the pristine Icelandic landscape where each summer day is
bathed in 22 hours of horizontal light. There, armed with beta versions
of Lightroom and laptops, the award-winning photographer and bestselling
author of "Photoshop CS2 RAW" and fellow digital shooters took the new
software on a genuine road test. "Photoshop Lightroom Adventure" includes
detailed case studies from the trip.
