Eating an elephant
I decided that learning Lightroom and/or Photoshop is much like eating and elephant. You have to take one bite at a time. I’ve taken the weeklong classes in both programs and its way too much to try to remember. Taking short classes seems to be the way to go . . . and taking them from different instructors because each one has a different slant or approach on what is baseline for working the programs. Even though I feel that you should not take images with the intention of fixing them in Photoshop, my mind was racing on what I could do with a couple of images by doing a blurred layer under a sharp layer. I think that when you load images into what eve filing system you have, you should wait a couple of weeks before deleting. What might not seem redeemable today might turn out to be the winning shot when you look at it with fresh eyes.
