The Adobe Lightroom/Photoshop Iceland Adventure

The team of Adventure photographers arrive in Iceland on July 28. This is an Adventure both in the sense of location photography and RAW workflow. Each shooter will be using Adobe Lightroom on a laptop in the field to process and output the images. Here's a quick overview of who is going, where they will be, and the reports from Iceland that will be coming your way.

Who and Where

Photographers on the Adventure team include Mikkel Aaland, Michael Reichmann, Peter Krogh, Richard Morgenstein, Maggie Hallahan, John McDermott, Bill Atkinson, Martin Sundberg, John Isaac, Chris Sanderson, Ari Magg, Sigurgeir Sigurjonsso, Christopher Lund, Derrick Story, George Jardine, Angela Drury, Melissa Gaul, and Addy Roff.

The team congregates in Reykjavik, Iceland on Friday July 28, and will be working in various locations throughout Iceland until August 5 when they depart.

The Upshot

Like any good story, we'll have a beginning, middle, and an end. The beginning will focus on the preparations for the adventure to Iceland. Through blog posts, podcasts, and other media, I'll give you an inside peek at how these professional shooters plan for their location assignments.

Once in Iceland, we'll upload as many images and interviews as possible. I'll also be shooting video that I might be able to post in digestible snippets. This is the exciting aspect because we really don't know what's going to happen -- you'll find out as we do.

After our return on August 5th, we'll pull together all of our content and show you different aspects of the adventure through the eyes of those who experienced it. Since we'll have some perspective, these stories should be more refined than the field reports that were uploaded as it happened.

Your Role

I hope that you'll participate through this web site. As you read, listen, and look at the images, think about how you can apply this information to your next adventure. Also, take a good look at the Adobe Lightroom workflow that all of the photographers used. One of the very interesting aspects of this Adventure is that each photographer will use Lightroom in their own way, giving you the opportunity to see how versatile this photo management software is.
