Christmas has come and gone and being based in Australia – where Summer is in full swing – the dPS team are all feeling the call to the beach!

I know it might be hard to hear for some of you snowed in in the Northern Hemisphere but the sun is shining and the temperature is rising over here and most Aussies take a couple of weeks off at this time of year.

But don’t fret – while we’re at the beach we’ve lined up some great content for you here on dPS so you can get your photographic ‘fix’.

Here’s what will happen:

1. Between Christmas and New Years – The dPS best of 2011 Series

Over the next week we’ve lined up a bit of a look back on the year that has been. In 2011 we published over 500 tutorials here on dPS – too many to have really taken in. So over this next week we’ll be presenting some ‘best of’ posts where we’ll publish themed collections of our best stuff from the last year.

Tomorrow we’ll kick it off with a collection of our hottest portrait photography posts written this year. Each day there will be a new theme.

2. The First 10 Days of 2011 – Reduced Posting

In our second week (10 days actually) we’ll be posting some great new content – but we’ll just post once a day instead of our normal twice a day schedule.

Also please note: over the next two weeks you may not see a newsletter from us – but we’ll make the following one a great one! We’ll also not have our normal blog challenges over this period.

All will be back to normal come 10th January though! In fact it’ll be better than ever as we’ll hopefully be returned relaxed, healthy and with a bronzed healthy ‘we’ve been in the Sun look’.

Happy New Year!

Lastly – let me take this opportunity to wish the wider dPS community a very Happy New Year. I hope that 2011 has been a good one for you and would like to send you our best wishes for 2012!
