Hi Phil - trust you're enjoying your time in Kenya .
It's interesting how different software works for different people. Whilst I had no problems with layers in Photoshop, it took me an absolute age to get my head around the way that Lightroom handles file management. I gave up on it a number of times before finally getting to grips. I just couldn't see past the absence of a "save as" button, and the idea of "importing" photos and using "catalogs" and "collections" frustrated me for a long time. I had to spend a fair amount of time watching and re-watching tutorial videos before it finally sunk in . Worth the effort in the end though . Cliff

Morning..
Changing th subject a little. Many many years ago I used to go to a college studying photography. We messed around in th dark room for hours on end. Lots thought at th time that this electronic gadgetry was th end of true fotography. It would be interesting to see if any one still can remember th joy of watching th paper changing in th developer. Taking it all threw th process from a negative (dodging and burning) I loved it. Only after long hours of work of been in th developer, wash and fixer to bring it out in th day light and find it a bit....... Thin. Then back in again and again till we were happy........ ish. Or am I just reminiscing about th past.. So is digital th future or as th art gone out of th art of fotography. Ps. Since th late 90's I'v been th proud owner of a digital. But is it th true image of fotography??

I see digital processing as pretty much the same as chemical processing. Both just adjust the image captured in the camera. The real skill is choosing the subject, the lighting, the composition, being there in the first place, practising for years, setting the camera, etc etc. Having said that I guess most people do not have art in the back of their mind when taking the holiday snaps but that has not changed from film days. |
