   Mikkel Aaland's new book, Photoshop Lightroom Adventure, published in 2007 by O'Reilly Media, is the first book written with Lightroom 1.1 in mind.
   ...
   Aaland's beautifully illustrated and eminently practical book is the first to offer a complete tour of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 1.1, the integrated digital photography workflow application that allows serious photographers to import, select, develop and showcase large volumes of digital images.Augmented by photos and case studies from a demanding road test in Iceland, award-winning ASMP photographer Mikkel Aaland explains how Lightroom 1.1 can improve the way you work.
   
   After watching - and often helping - Adobe create Lightroom entirely from the ground up, Aaland (author of Photoshop CS2 RAW) was ready to see how well it would do in the field.He organized a group of 12 top-notch photographers for a trek to "Nature's Light Room", the pristine Icelandic landscape where each summer day is bathed in 22 hours of horizontal light - and where the only studio was Lightroom on a laptop.In Photoshop Lightroom Adventure, Aaland uses hands-on knowledge from the trip to demonstrate how Lightroom 1.1 can help you create the best possible image under any conditions.
   ...
   Mikkel Aaland's trademark ability to teach complicated topics on digital imaging with straightforward, easy-to-follow text makes this book a valuable learning tool for anyone serious about digital photography.
