another one for my get pushed challenge set by @shannejw to shoot something that combines the primary colours and it needs to be colourful...
i had this brilliant idea for how to do this in one take... it didn't work... so, edited into submission in Photoshop (with some help from Lightroom)...
tx all for the great feedback on yesterday's shadow rider shot :)
This is so awesome!! Love it! I have a 30 day trial of Lightroom. I noticed that you use it a lot, but then also Photoshop. If you have some time...is there a specific purpose for each or do they both do essentially the same thing?
@luvmynynix tx Laurie... there is some overlapping functionality between LR and PS, but generally i think photogs choose them for different purposes...
LR is great for organizing and cataloging photos, plus basic (and advanced) processing from RAW... you can do huge amounts of editing in LR... and, one of the really cool features, is you can copy your edits from one shot to the next... so if you took a bunch at a birthday party you can edit one to get the right white balance, exposure, contrast etc, and then copy those settings to the rest... makes life a heckuva lot easier than doing them one by one!
what you can't do, and what you need PS for, is photo manipulation and anything involving masks and layers...
hahaha! i like this. it's like that thingamajiggs there is your alter ego in primary colours and it just does everything opposite to what you want to do. we should christen it with a nice name. it can be your mascot.
@vignouse tx - i guess it was one take, but i had wanted to add the scribble for the shot, and couldn't... so that was done in PS... plus i had a huge issue with the varying whites that resulted in a need to mess around with saturation and colour in LR and PS - which i had been hoping to avoid... oh well :)
