The Wait is Over.
Adobe Photoshop Lightroom ships today.
If you get in on it within the next month or so there’s an introductory pricing that will save you $100USD. You have three choices on purchase – you can download it, have the discs sent to you, or download it AND have backup discs sent.
If you opt for the third may I suggest something that will save you $30.00? Just buy the discs and wait for them to come BUT in the meantime download the free trial which is complete in every way except it times out at 30 days. You’re welcome. Buy me a coffee or a pint of triple chocolate stout next time you’re around Vancouver.
More information can be found HERE at the Adobe site. Along with this release comes a mountain of great Lightroom resources, among them:
Lightroom Killer Tips
Lightroom Extra
Lightroom News
Sean McPhoto’s Lightroom Blog
Lightroom Resources
Inside Lightrooom
O’Reilly Inside Lightroom

Finally, in the It’s About Freaking Time category…
Congratulations to my friend and colleague Kevin Clark who finally – FINALLY – got a Mac. And congrats to my friend April who just put in an order for her new Canon 5D and thus begins an illustrious career in portraiture.

I shoot exclusively to Lexar 8gb 133x CF cards and the only frustration has been the lack of an easy way to archive these cards [...]
