Photoshop vs Lightroom vs Freeware
“Should I use Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Lightroom” Photography enthusiasts will consider this question at least once in their lives. A tough question, one that will differ from person to person based on a variety of factors such as:
Skill level
How they want to edit the photos
The number of photos to be edited
Preference
Both Photoshop and Lightroom are fantastic programs by themselves, but are simply amazing when used to complement the other.…
Get Aperture on the AppStore for 80$!
In case you did not know, the Apple App Store is now available (need to update OSX first) and there are some great deals! The best of these, from what I have found so far, is Aperture for only 80$!

iPhoto09: the vanguard of automatic meta-tagging
No, this is not a review of iLife ’09…, or iPhoto. There are already plenty out there.
Instead I want you, me, us, to think about how that face detection thing can change the way we work. I played with it a bit and while it is not perfect (according to iPhoto my girl friend looks like a guy as soon as she wears a hat…) it shows promises and it is a first step in the automated meta-tagging world.
As a photographer, I tag all my pictures with at least 3-4 tags: the location, the subject, the dominant color (if any) and the activity (if any).
