Graham, Lightroom Classic, not Lightroom, is what you need as that uses local everything and saves back to your desired local drive! Lightroom Classic is probably the best image cataloguing system I have ever used.

Similar shot JK, but all PS this time and much better quality. Lightroom is, as you know, included with PS, but Classic, no doubt, is better but I would not use it much, and the extra cost would be silly to spend if not used. Click here to comment on this image.

I get Photoshop and Lightroom Classic for my Adobe subscription that used to be £9.99/month now increased to £14.99/month.

I may give up photography when it goes over £10…..or at least altering my photos! On a more serious note, I am finding the images out of the new Fuji don’t NEED any photoshopping. Exposure is spot on and it handles most situations admirably. The only thing I would miss with Photoshop is the superb masking options which enable selective targeting IF I do WANT to make an adjustment.

Graham…I know you may disagree with me but I am not a fan of the total oof background with birds. I like to see some semblance of habitat in the background. I appreciate backgrounds can be distracting but without it the image becomes more of a studio portrait than a wildlife capture. Nevertheless that’s a lovely image of a GSW ..from GWP.

I thought you had recoiled from paying Adobe anything and we’re using some other package? It a moot point, but I only stopped using Affinity because it wouldn’t open Sony raw files properly. I haven’t tried the Fuji files on there…they may be ok. It’s not the monthly amount persay that irritates me, it’s the fact I don’t use PS from one month to the next. If I go on there ….say 4 or 5 months ( after holidays) a year, I am effectively paying 2 to 3 x the price. Bring back the CD.  The older I get the more Yorkshire I become. Needed to replace a vertical blind runner for patio doors. The blind supplier wanted £148 to replace it. Went on line and bought the track for £35. Fitted into same clips in 30secs. I wanted to change the entry door locks to thumb locks ( we keep leaving keys insitu stopping opening from outside) Double glazing men came down measured up 2 locks. Quoted £152 for supply and fitting 2 new locks. Went on line ….£12 each. I literally fitted them both while the kettle boiled. I know in business they have to make a living…been there got the tee shirt. But since the pandemic (and Brexit) people are just taking the p!
