Healing in Hamburg
Guten morgen, Meine freunde! Yesterday proved to be another great day, despite some technical difficulties early on in the seminar. You know, you sometimes just have to roll with the punches, and technical glitches happen...period. But, it's how you keep the flow going that makes all the difference in the world. Enter Adobe Master Collection Evangelists! ;)
So, without skipping a beat, the seminar started on time, and we just worked thru the issues. It was another packed house yesterday, with people filling the aisles. In fact, we were oversold on the event, so CanCom set up a projector and sound system in the cinema lobby so additional attendees could watch the show.
Naturally, I snapped a couple of pics (including the now ubiquitous 'panorama'). In fact, Rufus had just completed a Designer event in Munich over the weekend, and did something *new* with his panorama...he left it 'uncropped'. Now, as a designer, he totally can pull-off that level of creative license. I decided to take his lead, and go 'designer chic'...so here's the 5-picture, auto-aligned panorama of the cinema crowd...das ist cool, ja?
My Rufus-inspired, un-cropped Pano of the Hamburg crowd
as you see, we evangelists tend to inspire one another as well!
All of this was done without flash, so here's another snap of us, in action, taken from the desk.
And then there were three...
In any event, it was another great day, with lots of good feedback after the show. Thanks again to everyone in Hamburg. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
And on that note, it's off to Vienna! This will mark a truly 'rock & roll' kind of experience, as on this day, we literally fly @ 7am, arrive Vienna @ 8:20; step off the plane, grab a taxi, off to the venue, do interviews and the show (8+ hours), and fly out to another city the same night. Good stuff. Could use more groupies though! lol
Incidentally, the second journalist (Thorsten Wulff) filmed our interview, and already posted it on YouTube. Here are Greg and I, giving a brief synopsis about 'what we're doing' on the tour...thanks, Thorsten!
So Meine freunde, until next time...
Danke, Auf weidersehen, and Blog on.

yep as a teacher you have to be able to roll with the punches as they say. thus far i've dealt with teaching a PS class and the program wasn't installed on the classroom computers. or, the time no one seems to have a key to the classroom door.
