    One more feather in the cap. Am glad to see PhotoTuts+ being associated with publications to spread the ocean of knowledge. This way, we photographers get a unique exposure to various material available in print. Otherwise, its difficult to get right stuff. Now as its recommended by PhotoTuts+, it should be good.

    @digiconn and am already following you :)
