Well it’s getting to be the hottest part of the summer, and that means it’s time for the big trips to the middle of now where to come grinding to a hault. In the mean time, I have an individual project to keep us all on our game. The project The assignment is simple, photograph …
Well it’s here! Finely! Adobe has released the full version of Photoshop Lightroom 2. There’s nothing to see here, move along, move along.
