i write a monthly newsletter called "Digital Papyrus" for the Other Worlds Cafe SF chat group (there's lots more than just chat). this week, i've been working on a supplement - a mini-review of LOSCON 34, which i attended Thanksgiving weekend in 2007.
i am totally enthralled by adobe lightroom. i've used adobe photoshop for many years, but lightroom puts some "speed" into my work process. having recently convrted to a dSLR camera, i now have some huge photos to work with. lightroom simplifies cataloguing and some of the early editing, without damaging the files.
even though the pics i took at LOSCON were .jpgs from a "point and shoot" camera, lightroom helped me adjust the tones and details immensly. and the CS3 "quickselect" tool helped me create smart objects in a number of photos in less than a third of time it would have taken just 6 months ago (before i upgraded).
should be able to finish this issue in just an afternoon, now
