I hate to say this, but I'm not so excited about the recent Asphalt issue either. Yes, I liked Jan's article, but otherwise I was left with an empty feeling.
The same day that Asphalt arrived, I received my Shutterbug magazine. Shutterbug had ads and articles that were useful and I spent much more time reading it.
There was far more info in Jan's magazine. Someone needs to shake Patrick Brady - cause if his most likely followers are of mixed thoughts, its future is cloudy.
Maybe I'll give Asphalt another read, but I shouldn't have to struggle to find articles that interest me.
