Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

Reshared post from +RC Concepcion

The Obligatory "2012 Metadata Update" Video
Whenever a new year rolls around, I can count on a bunch of questions coming in on changing your metadata information to reflect 2012. In this video, I talk about how to make metadata templates for #Lightroom and #Photoshop #Bridge for this change. I also go over how to re-record a portion of a Photoshop Action that may be using an old year (In this case the #Digimarc watermark service I like to use). Share it with all your image friends. One of those housekeeping things. :)

Alaska Bound!

I can’t hardly believe it, but I’m about a week away from my dream photography trip! One week in Alaska teaching Lightroom and photographing wildlife and amazing landscapes! We’ll be based out of Anchorage, but will day trip to Redoubt Bay, Brooks Falls, and Whittier. I’ll also have a day to myself where I hope to rent a car and drive down the Kenai. One of the great things about a trip is getting ready for that trip!This will be the furthest I’ve taken so much gear, and it’s quite a challenge to pare down to just what I think I will need. One bit of gear I’m most excited to bring with me is my GPS. My plan is to embed the GPS coordinates from each day’s shoot into my photos, import them into Lightroom, and then upload them in a Lightroom gallery I modified to turn the GPS data into links back to GoogleMaps.Here’s what is required:

  1. GPS device that produces a tracklog. 
  2. Software to embed the GPS data into each photo’s metadata (I’m using ImageIngester).
  3. Lightroom.

Here’s a sample gallery.

Lightroomers!

Since I am eating, sleeping and drinking Lightroom these days I’ve decided to migrate all my Lightroom related content to a new domain:

Lightroomers.com

In the course of my duties as NAPP’s Lightroom Help Desk Specialist, writing my Under the Loupe column for Photoshop User and writing my first Lightroom book (Lightroom For Dummies) I’ve got a lot of Lightroom information to share. I hope you’ll check it out and tell me what you think.
