Reorganizing My Library

So, I’m spending a few days organizing my digital library. Jeez. It’s never easy! Here are some things I am going through:

– My greatest find/purchase of this year is a Thunderbolt Pegasus drive. I bought it off the Apple website (not a freebie)… but, man… it is so awesome. I talk about it at 49:17 on the Hangout Video at

– Here is a screenshot of my increasingly organized Lightroom, thanks to the Pegasus:

– As for my whole workflow, I am going to give a talk here in Austin with Apple… It’s on October 22 at 7 PM. I’ll give more details on that later, if you want to watch. I don’t know if they’ll let me do a live Hangout, but I will try. I’ll give out some free copies of my Digital Workflow ebook from Flatbooks.com

– One quirky thing I am still working out with my Thunderbolt megadrive is that I have two Lightroom libraries (a small one for the road and a big one at home). I guess I am good with that. I just need to get my head around a good system for this. Maybe I just won’t decide and I’ll wait on this new Adobe Carousel thing to see what that’s all about.

– Speaking of that, WHEN will we know more about Adobe Carousel? I just joined their beta… so I will play with it and let you know… assuming they let me talk about it – I will ask.

Daily Photo – Inside the Dome

This beautiful dome was inside one of the side-cloisters in the Forbidden City. I remember spending about five minutes trying to line this up inside the camera. These can be very difficult to re-align in Photoshop. But, luckily, all my preparations paid off and it came out pretty good right out of the camera!
