What about LIGHTROOM? I heard it was the latest and greatest photo editing program!?

Lightroom is actually a stand-alone version of Adobe Bridge, which comes with Photoshop CS3. (You can get an older version of Bridge with CS2, but Bridge CS3 is amazingly powerful and fast...)

Lightroom and Bridge have a few key differences, but the same exact RAW processing engine. And the ability to process JPG images along side RAW images, too! I simply decided to stick with Bridge because it looked a little easier for me to work with, but they're both FANTASTIC programs...

Actually, I do most of my photo editing in Adobe Bridge CS3, not in Photoshop CS3. Bridge CS3 is powerful for correcting color, tone, converting to B&W, and also for creating special artistic effects...

But with seven different control panels and over 60 diferent controls, BR and LR are not for the faint-of-heart or the techno-phobe!

I do offer small-group coaching and teaching, available by special arrangement only, for everything related to digital imaging workflow, and Bridge / Lightroom / Apple Apeture are all programs I can help you master completely...
