Robert, Go get a trial copy of the new software from ON1 called PhotoRAW 2018 when it comes out in late October/early November.
It is everything LR is and will have Layers......... yeah finally someone has listened. This means that you will have an easy to use software with good catalog and fast RAW editing and layers along with HDR etc....
Thanks for the heads-up, will give it a try.

Hint for testing these softwares. Never shoot a new set of images always use a set that you have processed through at least one other software you like and use the same images and see how they come out.
Had never thought of that! Thanks.
Thinking back, in fact I have done that, although not in the way you suggest, I tried processing the same (fresh) InfraRed images with Lr, Ps and Bibble. Bibble won, for me anyway! Mainly because it made easier and a better job of adjusting the subtle light tones. I also find the 'zone' selection provided by the Nik filters to greatly ease selection for fine adjustments limited to very specific parts of images. Here it's the ease and flexibility of selection, rather than any special feature of the adjustment of the selected parts of the image, if that makes any sense!
