November 2009

========================================================

Dear User Group members,

Last month you had a peek at sample chapters from two gorgeous
and inspirational photography books by David duChemin and Ralph
Clevenger. Well this month "Photographing Nature" and "VisionMongers"
are both available and you can request one of them as your free
monthly book!

This month we've also released a bunch of Photoshop Elements 8
books, iPod books, and much, much, more.
