just like role playing but without the fetish!
susan let me borrow her wacom tablet for the evening. i'm trying it out to see if it's something i would benefit from with. so far, i'm leaning towards no but it can do some neat tricks. Editing the finer details like hair and spot healing is very easy with the pen. lightroom is actually much quicker with a mouse and since I do most of my work in lightroom as of now, maybe it's something i should wait on. however, the pen would actually encourage me to learn more photoshop. so something to think about... anyway. here are two things i came up with.
photos of a concept bmw in germany with some handwritten text

(the logo is lifted from the bmw website)
and here's a panorama i took tonight from the roof of my house

first of all, photoshop cs4 has a pretty good photostitcher (although not the fastest). the pen was only helpful in adding the signature in the corner. which i dig!
