Seasonal Siblings
Three of my buddies have started a site and are producing videos of their winter experience. Sam Hulbert, Ian Thorley, and Brandon Reis all originate from the East Coast and are very involved in the contest and Tahoe scenes. Being the funny guys that they are I am sure the videos will be very entertaining and I am excited to see what else they release.
You can follow them on their sites below:

Burning Bridges
I was really excited when I found this movie still available on the Holden Outerwear website. I am not an impulse buyer by a long shot, but when I saw this I didn’t even think twice about ordering it. I have had a bootleg copy of the movie for years now but it has completely gone to shit and I am more then willing to purchase it. Hands down Burning Bridges is in my top 3 favorite movies along with Kingpin’s last release Back In Black, and Robot Food’s last release After Lame both of which I also own.

LR Vs. PS
I have never been a big fan of Photoshop. Never used the program for more then raw editing or putting together a few sequences. Needless to say I was really stoked once I learned about Lightroom, and just about totally abandoned Photoshop and Bridge from my workflow. With the arrival of lightroom 2 the need for Photoshop in my workflow has become even less important.
This was mainly because of the Localized Adjustment Tools that were added in the new release. What took multiple masks, layers, and editing in PS now takes 5-10 minutes in LR.
Here is a great example.
This is the raw photo straight out of camera.
Camera Raw
As you can see it needs a good amount of work. His body is on the verge of being blown out, and the wall, tree, and grass is quite flat. This photo should have been a throw away, but we will use it for this example.
Now here is the Photoshop edited version that took about 30-40 minutes to finish.
PS
With masks for his shirt, pants, and face, along with the wall, grass, and tree, it can start to take up a bit of time. Then there had to be levels, curves, and a few other tricks done before the image could be called complete. Even after the work is done, it still looks a little odd and over worked.
Now here is the LR edited version that took about 5 minutes of work with the Localized Adjustment Tools (that I barely know how to use.)
LR
This version has a much more natural feel, and is overall a much better edit in my option, it took less then 1/4th the time as the Photoshop version, was non-deconstructive to the photo, and was all done and saved in RAW.
When time is money, why take 30-40 min with PS when you can do about the same thing in LR for much less?
What looks better to you?
