Cool O'Reilly Authors to Cover Hot Topics at Photoshop World

Photoshop World is one of my favorite conferences of the year in terms of actually sitting down in sessions and learning something. In fact, there's learning to be had all over the Hynes Center next week, much of it brought to you by O'Reilly authors:

• Deke McClelland will be giving his orientation to Photoshop CS3 live and in color. This will be the fully animated version of the great material you can find in the dekeBytes posts here at O'Reilly Digital Media. You can also catch Deke at the O'Reilly booth covering a couple of specific new CS3 features: Camera Raw 4 and Smart Objects and Filters.
• Speaking of new, Lightroom has its own track in the Photoshop World sessions this year, and our own Derrick Story will be sharing his explorations and insights into the photo management application that was the focus of the Photoshop World keynote last September.
• O'Reilly DAM Guru Peter Krogh will be teaching Digital Asset Management in the O'Reilly booth as well as showing off his favorite cataloging tool, iView Media Pro, in the Microsoft booth.
• Eddie Tapp, a Photoshop Hall of Fame inductee at the last PSWorld, will be unlocking color mysteries, with insights from his Practical Color Management and upcoming Controlling Digital Color and Tone in Photoshop books.
• Katrin Eismann, another Hall of Famer (we got plenty, we should build our own wing here), will treat us to some of her creative insights for working in the digital darkroom that is Photoshop.

By the way, the show is sold out, but you can still get a free expo pass here which will get you access to most of the above. So if you're in Boston, there's no excuse not to stop by booth #203 and check out the O'Reilly All Stars. See you there.
