Today we are going to take a look at the new Adobe Photoshop Express. Express is a free web-based photo editor from Adobe that allows you to upload images and do basic photo correction. While it doesn’t have the full features of Photoshop or even Photoshop Elements, it may well be the perfect tool for many home users who want to make basic corrections, share images in a gallery, and email family and friends their images.

If you are into using gels or have wanted to experiment with it, one of the problems is finding good quality and affordable gel sets. While you can always try to get a free sample kit, the gels are small and have a hold in them. What would be almost perfect would be some pre-cut sheets with velcro straps attached.

I am a big fan of doing interesting lighting techniques and have been playing around with using gels to create colored background effects. While using small gels can work pretty good, I have been looking for something that works better, isn’t as fragile, and basically was designed for the purpose. What I found was the Lumiquest FX kit. The FX is a complete colored filter system designed specifically to create colored lighting effects.
