I guess I should chronicle my switch from windows to Mac here.

Why a Mac? DH was behind on a 50th birthday present and a 30th wedding anniversary present and the local shop ran an amazing 3 day sale. So he told me it was now or never. They were clearing things out for an end January inventory count we suspect.

First of all the dinky keyboard, isn't. It's really slick. I type with all my fingers and it's a joy. I haven't really gotten the shortcuts for cut and paste...

I've read so many books lately I dont know where to start in altering my workflow. I do realize that the best tool for the job is the one you know.

I've been playing with Google Earth and SketchUp. And while it's really cool that I can type in my street address and get an eagle's eye view;



It's also rather creepy in a big-brother-is-watching-you...

Conversion Software

Posted 01-24-2010 at 01:44 PM by cricket1961 (Chris Tarantino's Blog)

During my last webinar I was asked what i used for processing raw files from Photographers.

The easy answer would be to say whatever software I am feeling is a favorite at the moment. BUt of course that would be a bit arbitrary and not always the best choice.

I currently have several applications that I use. ACR and Lightroom are two of them. Even though Lightroom is based upon ACR and ACR is pretty easy and straightforward to use, I tend to lean more towards Lightroom....

Remember the game "20 questions"? This isn't it.

don't shoot the retoucher

I'm finding the coverage (or lack there of :-) of Jennifer Hawkin's nude cover on Feb 2010 Australian Marie Claire endlessly amusing. First of all who uses the term 'air brushing' anymore? And second of all it seems completely arbitrary to me that she can have the best make-up, photographers and lighting but entering the digital darkroom is a no no. lol, like nothing happens in camera. Yawn! This argument is so tired.

I got a number of books on Photoshop for Christmas which I am slowly...
