CMX Masterpiece Photo Collection 27: Wallpaper
Reader Level:
After taking a beautiful photograph, I want to look at it as often as possible. One way to do that is to use it as wallpaper on either my computer, iPad, or iPhone.

This collection of ten high resolution CMX Masterpiece Photos is devoted to images that will look great on any screen.

Exporting Image Portfolios from Adobe Bridge to the iPad

Tablet devices are becoming more and more common in the professional, educational and consumer worlds. In fact, at MAX 2011 it was even mentioned that tablet devices will likely supersede desktop computers within the next few years. With increasingly powerful tablets coming into the market, tied in with cloud-based services, this forecast doesn't surprise me.
The fact that Adobe announced at MAX 2011, the release of 6 new and or improved Touch apps, also sends a clear message that these devices are being taken seriously by the industry.
Whether you are a professional artist or photographer, or a student learning the craft, or just someone who wants to share their great photos with others on your shiny new tablet, this article may come in handy. We're going to see how you can add image portfolios to your iPad, using Adobe Bridge CS5, the new Bridge Export panel, and iTunes.

As of version 4.0.2, Adobe Bridge CS5 includes Export modules for directly posting photos to Facebook, Flickr and Photoshop.com.

CMX Masterpiece Photo Collection 20: Dance of the Comedians

Nature photography is by far my favorite type of photography. Whether you're an animal lover or not, you can't help but see how entertaining and comical these unpretentious, uninhibited animals can be.

CMX Masterpiece Photo Collection 18: Hawaii
Reader Level:
This is far from a literary masterpiece theme in this collection. I'm taking huge liberties and moving instead to the vast wasteland of TV: Hawaii 5-0. Yes, as you know, our 50th state once again has a TV series. The show itself is your typical formula cop format. The good guy always gets the bad guy in the end. But the scenery almost makes it worth watching. I was in Maui in the summer, though not during the season of the dramatic surfing waves, so I can't treat you to those classics shot. But the island is one of the most ruggedly gorgeous terrains I have yet to encounter.
This set includes ten high resolution images.

JPEG to Adobe Camera Raw
Reader Level:
I've often been asked about the differences between Adobe Camera Raw files and JPEG files and if in fact a JPEG can be processed in Camera Raw. Let me say first off, all digital cameras do not create Raw files and the majority of digital cameras, such as the compact point and shoot types, will most likely be producing JPEG's. Some more expensive DSLR cameras will produce both JPEG and Raw files.

CMX Masterpiece Photo Collection 16: Moby Dick

Summer in South Florida is pretty sticky, especially if you venture two steps away from the A/C into the great outdoors. Many people choose to take their summer vacation in a tropical climate with warm waters and white, sandy beaches. They come here. Since I live in this tropical climate year round, I did what the snowbirds do. I headed north, as north as you can get in the good old USA. My destination for 10 glorious days was the coast of Maine. Sweater weather and Maine lobster in mid June is my idea of perfection.
This collection of ten high resolution images was taken during my recent trip to Maine.

We are excited to introduce the CMX Masterpiece Photo Collection 15: The Three Musketeers, based on the book by Alexandre Dumas (1805-1870). You can read The Three Musketeers at the Gutenburg Project.
You may not remember the names of Athos, Porthos, and Aramis, the inseparable friends in The Three Musketeers, but you surely have heard of the motto they live by: "all for one, one for all".
There is something compelling about groups of threes. The concept of three seems to be in our blood, in our religions, and even in our design principles. The ratio of thirds is a hot topic in web design, especially as divided in a 960 pixel wide layout. In the spirit of the trend, we are pleased to offer you images based on groupings of three.

Observations From an Equestrian Photo Shoot

Are you looking to expand your photographic horizons? And I don't mean with a 12mm fisheye lens... I mean taking on new challenges. I was recently invited to take pictures at an outdoor equestrian event, which I had never previously done.

I was up at 4am to be on the trail and set up. Read my experience doing something for the first time, and perhaps you'll come out ahead when next you tackle a new challenge!

Infra Red and Adobe Camera Raw Are Great Friends
Reader Level:
I'm sure most of you who have been with photography for awhile, still remember the painstaking process of creating an Infra Red (IR) image from scratch. Along with the issues of focusing an IR image, you had to be concerned with ambient temperatures and film processing techniques to end up with what would, if everything went right the first time, a spectacular scene consisting of a stark sky with puffy white clouds and the general landscape of trees and grass taking on a surreal cotton candy fairyland appearance. The entire scene was rendered in bold tones of black and white. Those were the days, tedious at times, but eventually it was all worthwhile.
Well today you can still achieve all the splender of an IR image effect with a lot less effort and a lot more control. Photoshop and Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) combine together to give remarkably brilliant IR effects from any color image you might have kicking around. It's quick and easy.

I'm sure most of you who have been with photography for awhile, still remember the painstaking process of creating an Infra Red (IR) image from scratch. Along with the issues of focusing an IR image, you had to be concerned with ambient temperatures and film processing techniques to end up with what would, if everything went right the first time, a spectacular scene consisting of a stark sky with puffy white clouds and the general landscape of trees and grass taking on a surreal cotton candy fairyland appearance.

Introducing Masterpiece Photo Collection 7: Paradise Lost
Reader Level:
We are excited to introduce the CMX Masterpiece Photo Collection 7: Paradise Lost, based on the epic poem by John Milton (1608-1674).
Now you may be wondering what possible connection there could be between Paradise Lost and our latest CMX Masterpiece Photo Collection. After all, the poem deals with the profound themes of man's fall and the dichotomy of good and evil. We are engaging in a little irony here. Our latest images are of paradises on earth, and thus give us a few moments where we feel...Paradise Gained.

The Rules of Composition
Reader Level:
So you take pictures. Do you know what you're looking at? How would you describe what you do and don't like? Even more important, how can you take that information and make *better* pictures? Start here! I'll take you on a tour of how I view composition and rules in photography, and why you need to reconsider what rules really are.

Introducing Masterpiece Photo Collection 6: The Jungle Book

We are excited to introduce the CMX Masterpiece Photo Collection 6: The Jungle Book, based on the book by Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936). You can read The Jungle Book in a free ebook at Project Gutenberg. Many of you may have read The Jungle Book, or at the very least seen the Disney movie. I remember going to see the movie as a child and being completely fascinated by it. I would even guess that it is my all time favorite Disney movie!

Introducing Masterpiece Photo Collection 4: A Winter's Tale
Reader Level:
After the fragrant collection of flowers in our last stock photo collection, it seems a bit retrograde to publish images of winter. This is the season of ricocheting weather, however. Here in the D.C. metropolitan area - after experiencing sunny 60+ degree weather the last couple of days - we're under a winter storm warning with the possibility of sleet, ice pellets, and up to a foot of snow in some locations. And then there are the places that will get snow for many weeks yet to come. CMX Partner Rob Williams lives in Canada near Toronto and loves to go out after a fresh storm and take images before humans and vehicles tarnish the virgin landscape.

CMX Masterpiece Photo Collection 4 - A Winter's Tale
Reader Level:
This week's stock photo collection takes a bit of a change of pace by focusing on natural winter landscapes. While staying nice and cozy at home in the depths of a snow storm can be comforting, it's amazing how many beautiful scenes and experiences you can miss out on. This selection of photos that I've taken over the last two winters will, I hope, help to bridge that gap (without the need for you to get out in the bitter winter air!)
To read more about the classic literature, A Winter's Tale by William Shakespeare that provides the theme for this collection, read Sheri German's Introducing CMX Masterpiece Photos Collection 4: A Winter's Tale.

We are excited to introduce the CMX Masterpiece Photo Collection 3: A Rose, based on a poem by Emily Dickinson (1830 - 1886) called A Rose - A sepal, petal, and a thorn.
It is now mid February and we're all pretty sick of the snow, ice, and cold weather. As sometimes happens in February, we just had a run of extraordinarily mild days with one day climbing to almost 70 degrees here in the Washington, DC metropolitan area. That whets my appetite for the season of the renewal of life.
Spring is coming...and so are the flowers.

It is that "most wonderful time of year", and CMX loves to offer gifts to its subscribers, as well as the web development community at large.
