Photoshop World Orlando 2010 in Photos Recap
These photos are from Photoshop World Orlando last week. Here I am with my buddies Alan Hess of Shot Live Photo and Lew Bedell from Artistic Photo Canvas. I consider Alan my personal mentor; he puts up with an endless stream of questions from me, which he probably...
the last thing you’ll ever eat…
