After several years of being told to invest in 'proper' image processing software (and after more than a year of utterly failing to get along with LightRoom), I finally sat down with an experienced LR user, who succeeded in getting my autistic brain to make some sense out of the LR GUI.
I should apologise to all those stallwarts here (you know who you are!) who told me repeatidly that my basic edits using FastStone were not up to par, for my inability to get along with the Adobe software and for my intransigence in not 'getting with the program'.
I've been on a sabatical from TP for a good few months (since the last user cull), but have returned because I can finally understand what was being said to me in the terminology stakes, now that I am no longer put-off by people explaining to me, that which I could not accept - my tool of choice was not up to the job. The only trouble now is that I have a library of 20k+ images which were not fit for purpose, many of which are gaining a new lease of life thanks to LR! Here is one such capture, taken last year in Perthshire and which was effectively binned as a poor shot. I'll be interested to hear what folks make of this heavilly edited image before perhaps displaying the original which came SOOC.....
No need to be gentle with your comments - I'm still very-much a learner with LR/PS, so say what you see and I'll be grateful.
