About

This blog is my (Rob Sheppard’s) take on digital photography: quick tips, techniques and commentary about digital photography, Photoshop, nature photography and more. I am the author/photographer of over 30 books, a well-known speaker and workshop leader, and is editor-at-large and columnist for the prestigious Outdoor Photographer magazine. I was editor of Outdoor Photographer for 12 years, helped start PCPhoto magazine and know the industry pretty well. As author/photographer, I have written hundreds of articles about photography and nature, plus books ranging from guides to photography such as the Magic of Digital Nature Photography and the National Geographic Field Guide to Digital Photography to books about Photoshop including Adobe Camera Raw for Digital Photographers Only, Lightroom 2 for Digital Photographers Only and Outdoor Photographer Landscape and Nature Photography with Photoshop. My website is at www.robshepppardphoto.com.
