Adobe Lightroom

Today I’m sharing an image from my archives and also my thoughts regarding Lightroom.

I’m a huge fan of Adobe Lightroom. I bought it primarily to use as an archiving tool but
it now handles 99.9 percent of my image workflow so I’m using Photoshop less and less.
I agree with many who feel that Lightroom along with Photoshop Elements may be all you need!

It’s from Lightroom guru Matt Kloskowski. (videos run consecutively with a commercial in the middle).

lightroom 2


I told myself I wouldn’t but after watching the video tutorials on the NAPP website, I upgraded to Lightroom 2 yesterday. One word….WOW! The first thing I fell in love with is being able to use both my monitors which means I have the light table open on one monitor while having a huge preview on the other (as shown above).

There are so many more really cool features that I haven’t tried yet. If they work, I’ll be using Lightroom for much more than just archiving now. By the way, I’m guessing that the new Bridge will probably have some of these new features too.
