all the paintings wear a frown
i've been on a bit of a lightroom buzz recently. my normal workflow routine is to import the photo into lightroom, but then open it in photoshop to process it. after i was happy with the lightroomed machu picchu i challenged myself to process a bunch of other shots i took on that trip. i was pretty happy with the results, it certainly made me look at things in a different way. having said that it would never be a replacement for photoshop, and the fact remains anything you can do with lightroom, you can do that and more in photoshop. in this example, it's actually a combination of two photos. i liked the expression on the lady in the first, but the background was obscured by a fellow traveller's backpack, so i spliced a second shot with an unobstructed view. i'm pretty certain that level of deception and cheating is only possible with photoshop.
