Clear those browser cache memories - here's what we have for your reading and viewing pleasure this month...

The October cover shot is another floral beauty by Giuseppe Guadagno, who regularly posts in the Flora gallery. Our thanks to Giuseppe for sharing his stunning work with us on NPN!

Joseph Rossbach offers some timely advice in his 8 Essential Tips For Autumn Color article. As we have come to expect, Joseph's informative article is accompanied with some spectacular photos!

Ian Plant offers some tongue-in-cheek advice on how to make the most of your family vacation photo ops in his Surviving the Family Photo Vacation article. Yes, we've all experienced the frustration of being the only "photographer" in the group when visiting photo-worthy locations, so Ian's article will undoubtedly bring a smile to your face!

Varina and Jay Patel offer some tips for photographing Death Valley in their Death Valley - A Land Of Extremes article. If Death Valley is in your travel plans, be sure to check this one out!

Finally, Alain Briot offers some insight on creating stitched images using the Phase One 45 digital back - Phase One P45 Collages. No doubt Alain is always pushing the boundaries of landscape photography, making this article a must-read for all landscape photographers.

And a few other notes...

We have resurrected the Letters to the Editor page. The page can be accessed from the new header navigation system in the Articles menu.

Speaking of the new header navigation, we hope to have the IC galleries updated in the next 7 to 10 days - thanks to all for your patience. In the Articles and Galleries menus, for your convenience we have added links to Posting Guidelines and a new User FAQ page. If you have any suggestions for additions to the FAQ page, please be sure to let us know!

We hope you enjoy this latest edition!

Hi Jim,

It might be useful to add some basic info about processing images for use on NPN to the FAQ page. This often trips up new members. There is a sticky thread in the Digital Imaging Forum on this topic. Maybe just a link to that message thread would be enough.

Cheers,

Mark, great suggestion! I have added the question/answer to the User FAQ page.

Thanks! :toast:
