Today, I drove 422 miles to Palenville, NY, which is where my friend Dan Bulkholder lives. I went to dinner with Dan and a few friends in Woodstock NY and we plan to explore the general area tomorrow. It's raining nicely tonight... I love the sound of rain hitting the roof of the bus... it's one of the best sounds to sleep to.
Hey Ben... on another topic I thought I saw a new book out by you focusing on HDR, new photoshop techniques and some of your Rt 66 stuff.
I can't for he life of me remember where, maybe a recent issue of PS User Mag. I was already to buy it this week now I can't find it anywhere.
Was I dreaming I saw it somewhere. Am I going mad.

I found the HDR and Beyond book - at Amazon in Canada: http://www.amazon.ca/HDR-Beyond-Adobe-Photoshop-CS4/dp/0321617029
Of course, it's not in stock, but you can sign up to be notified when it's available. Amazon in the US has no clue about this book.
So, Ben... when's this book coming out?

Again with regards to Ben's book, HDR and Beyond in Adobe Photoshop CS4, here's the URL from Half-dot-com:
http://product.half.ebay.com/HDR-and-Beyond-in-Adobe-Photoshop-Cs4_W0QQprZ71155671QQtgZinfo
It gives a publication date of January, 2010.

That's a book I was considering writing and the publisher started to promote it before a contract was signed. It might get written one of these days, but it's not an active project. The publisher should not have let anyone know outside of their own offices.
Sorry about that.
-Ben
