Welcome

S ummer. Flowers and long evenings. Golden sunsets. And as July pales

softly towards August, the days shorten, and already the distant voice of
Autumn can be heard rustling through the leaves beneath the rising of
the moon. Soon, too soon, the chill of an early nyght will lay claim to the

growing darkness and all these days will be memories of a summer past.
The last scars of a wynter that tarried far too long still remain upon the face of the
world around us and yet already the green of the leaves fades. Flowers lose their
petals upon the browning of the grass. Summer passes too quickly. With a sense of

urgency we cling to the warmth of summer....
This is an eclectic issue, and, all our regular contributors return. Lew Brown,
Rayn, and Andy Walcott all return and offer their unique insight into the world
around us. We are honoured to have the work of Jim Hoyle in this issue. Jim's skill

with black and white images marks a lifetime in film. My interview with Francois
DeWynter takes an unexpected turn - one that has left me deep in thought. "Poeti-
cally Man Dwells," usually an essay, takes a different turn largely as a result of that
interview.

For many of us, Photoshop is a staple of our trade - and yet it is often overwhelm-
ing and perplexing. In this edition we will explore simple ways to make a good image
great. Finally, "Lighting the Un-lightable" returns - this time with a look at lighting
complex architectural spaces.

There is only now, only this moment, drink from it all you can. And, hold fast the
memories.
