- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
Lightroom, Lightroom, Lightroom...
Since purchasing lightroom my workload is 90% LR and 10% CS2 for "fixes".
PS is a very complicated in depth tool, elements is simplified, but still a handful. Those CDs that people mentioned above do actually work if your willing to learn. Most of it is playing around with it and seeing what different features do.
As far as the eye goes, it really depends. I spent alot of time looking at other photographers work. Its easy to look at a photo quickly and decide if you like or dislike it. Try evaluating the ones you dont like. Was it composition, subject, or effects/ mood portrayed. Once you have that figured out, everything except the subject can be altered in PS or lightroom.
Here is an example of an edit I helped Dangergirl with.
