A powerful educational moment . . .

For many years I have been a very avid photographer. I have taken thousands of rolls of film and loved every minute of it. But it wasn't until the digital revolution that replaced film that I came to realize how really limited my capabilities were. So for me, one of the most amazing educational moments came when I first turned on my computer just a few years ago and used Photoshop software for the first time. The realization that my photography efforts would be limited literally only by my imagination was a powerful moment. With Photoshop I could 'tinker' to my heart's content and truly learn at my speed and convenience.
