Hi Guys

Here's my latest video tutorial using Photoshop Lightroom. In this video I'll show you how to create the trendy orange sky image we see a lot of lately.

Check it out!

I hope you enjoy it.

nice tutorial.

I still haven't quite figured out how Adobe is mixing and matching photoshop, lightroom, bridge, and camera raw.  They all seem to overlap in very gray areas with no one problem seem to be specifically for one thing.

I seems Lightroom is a nice program, but I am not sure what I would be able to do there that i can't do in photoshop + bridge. ... maybe i shouldn't be getting off topic here :)  If anyone takes off on this part of the conversation I can split this thread.

Hey Leaf

All those new Lightroom 2 adjustment brushes will be available in PS CS4. :)

leaf:
it seems light lightroom is sort of a simplified, dummied down version of photoshop.. or photoshop for the photographer who doesn't want to learn how to use photoshop?  Could that be accurate?

mjp:
Yes the lightroom is simplified version of photoshop&bridge. It is very simple to use but with dual monitor support it beats the adobe camera raw as raw convertor (local adjustements are also very good and often use them). With its keywording and file organization/management capabilities it beats the bridge again.. It has very good web, print etc output/export functionalities as well.

All these functions can be found from photoshop&bridge compliation, but things like workflow is easier to maintain with lr+cs compilation than in brdige+acr+cs. I used to have phase one 3.7 raw convertor and after I changed it to lightroom my throughput rate increased a lot due to thigher integration to CS3 (no hasle with files, directories, jpeg savings etc). So I use it as replacement of raw-convertor&bridge. It is also a 64bit software so it can utilize modern operating system and large amount of memory. It is quite fast, but slows little bit down if lot of local adjustments are used.

I think many new photographers will find LR much easier to learn than photoshop. If you do not need to manipulate images much then you just need LR.

I like to hear other LR users workflows and comments. If somebody is interested I can write down my LR workflow.
