Lightroom 2 is here

20087-385-4756.jpg

Just yesterday I was poking a bit around the net thinking “shouldn’t Lightroom 2 be baked by now?”   All the indicators pointed towards September.  Six hours later Adobe released it.   “Missed it by that much!”

I had played with the beta just a bit several months ago and have been (im)patiently waiting ever since.  It has arrived and I’m in my happy place (except that I really need to add another few gigabytes of RAM so I can have Lightroom and FCP comfortably resident).

2008 has been a very heavy shooting year for me and I’m thrilled to have such great tools available.  I’m ready to master the new features in LR2.  With the sharpening tools derived from PixelGenius, Photoshop will be collecting even more dust now in my workflow.

[By the way, that's a Green Heron waiting for dinner.  Assabet Reservoir,  Westborough -- my first exported image from LR2]

Little swamp near Route 27

I’ve passed this small swamp maybe 200+ times over the past few years and I often find myself saying “I should see if there is a picture in there”….  (I am all too aware of the fact that many places look much better at 30 mph.)

How many thousands of people drive by each day and never even see the possibilities?

A couple of weeks ago the light was nice and I wanted to get out and feed the local mosquito population, so what better place than a swamp?  I’m not sure about these pictures, and I think a few more return visits are in order.  It has promise…
