 I admit it... I'm an Apple biggot. That's a very different thing from being an Apple Fanboi, in fact it's pretty much the opposite. Till now, my stance has always been about the way Apple restricts its customers to its walled garden, and that's been a personal preference that a not-insignificant number of people obviously don't have any serious problems with. But I've been increasingly of the opinion that Apple has replaced Microsoft as the more agregeous offender of corporate control and domination... till now.

This is the 3rd in my series of 5 reviews of Photoshop CS5 features. This one is about the puppet warp feature that lets you bend parts of your subject at will. It's one of the more scary features, since you can make your subjects appear in positions they may not physically be capable of achieving. See what you think.

 I spent some time reading through Trey Ratcliff's StuckInCustoms.com latest posting, and was fascinated by some of the images he's produced. But that's nothing new. Trey has developed a master's expertise in HDR imagery, and I've followed his work there. But this is a different kind of imaging altogether.

 This month, I've cut my phone line. Actually I abandoned a traditional POTS phone for my business a few years ago. Since then I've used a variety of VoIP providers including Packet8 and Vonage. I've been able to keep the same phone number by transporting it to each successive provider. As of yesterday, I've moved from any kind of cable based VoIP, and so far (one day's experience) I'm mostly happy with what I have.

 June seems to be a month for new releases, or at least updates. I'm counting Adobe CS5 in this, and then along comes Adobe Lightroom 3 and onOne's plugin Suite 5. All in, there are way too many apps to thoroughly test and look at, but as a starting point, I wanted to just put Photoshop CS5, Lightroom 3, and onOne's plugins together in some way to see how and what they could produce. So, this is not an in-depth review, but more of a quick look at how the products work, and work together.

Here's the second in my series of 5 reviews of Photoshop CS5's new features. This one is on "content aware fill" that makes simple work of removing nearly anything from your photos. Stunning stuff.

 Camping in the mountains of North Carolina is always a joy. This week we are just outside Boone, NC, at Honey Bear Campground. We were here last year at about this same time of year. It's only about a one hour drive from home, but feels like a different world altogether. The campground advertises full hookups and free WiFi, but having used many 'free WiFi' installations in campgrounds around the country, I was prepared to get what we paid for.
