For those tracking… Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.1 was released. Check the Adobe Labs site for the latest download. I’ve been using Lightroom on and off again since version 1 was released.

Updates include daily highlights and images. So far 10 days have been posted of the 12 days in the field. The trip was centered around the filming of an episode of “Travels to the Edge with Art Wolfe”, a TV program / Natur
