Hi Everyone, this is my first post here, but I've been reading the forum for a little bit and everyone seems very knowledgeable and helpful, so I thought I'd ask your opinion on this.
I'm a definite novice in the world of photography and editing, but I'm looking to get more serious about it and possibly turn it into a profession. In the meantime, while I'm learning, which editing software would be the best to start with? I've a read a bunch of reviews on both PE 7 and LR 2 and they seem very similar, but maybe I'm missing something big?
I'm assuming CS4 would be the best option overall and in the long run and I believe both options are good for organzing, but to do basic editing and coloring (example below), which between PE 7 and LR 2 would be the better pick?
Also, does either one really do composition? And if so, which one is better for that?
Thanks for any advice.
