Hi Chris Ross just replied to me re using photoshop for backscatter post processing and it got me thinking.
Having tried PS and then Lightroom, I abandoned them as too cumbersome and slow to use. I now use irfanview for speed and if something needs a bit more work I open Lightroom.
I find that apart from backscatter which I treat by dumping the shot and moving onto the next (Ha!), there is little extra that I get from Lightroom apart from more control.My idea of a good shot is one that has sharp focus and interest, farting around with layers doesn't do much for me. This hits maximum after a trip when I do the in depth review and dump a lot of semi keepers from first pass through irfanview on the trip.
Am I missing something? Would not be the first time.
