Cool Hardware Reviews | Corey on Photoshop World | Contest Time

Monday February 9, 2009

Happy Monday everyone! I’m just getting back from working with Moose Peterson on our “You Can Do It Too” workshop out in Mammoth, CA and I have to tell you, I had a wonderful time doing it. The workshop focuses on how to focus your photography to sell on the Editorial marketplace, and how to develop a web presence using already existing tools.

I focus on all of the web components of this, and the participants walk away with knowledge on how to setup a website/blog and incorporate flash galleries that can be made within Lightroom and Photoshop for presentation on the web. The image to the right was me playing around with an image taken at Alabama Hills in CA (which confused me, because Alabama isn’t really in CA). Right now, we only have one more workshop setup in April, and it’s already half full. For more information, check out Moose’s website to register. Great times..
