Your also missing the point here to the original question. The guy uses Photoshop already so unless he feels the ability to catalog his work would make his life complete then he does not need LR. The editing capabilities have nothing to offer a Photoshop user. For what I do with photographs it is like trying to take a poo wearing an overcoat. You cannot seriously edit photographs without access to a channels pallet a range of selection tools and use of adjustment layers.
To those that want pretty flags dinky stars and the glory of keywords on there photos Im sure it can make for a useful front end for PS but you quickly transfer from LR to Photoshop as its limitations show up very quickly.
It is easier to learn than Photoshop and I think if you just want to edit some snap shots it has its uses. If your serious about photo editing and want what comes out of your camera to be as good as it can be you need PS.
Not sure what sort of editing you do as you do not seem to post pictures here but what I have posted, whether one likes them or not, could not have been fully edited in LR

I agree with Billyspad, if you are already using Photoshop and don't have a need for cataloguing, you don't need Lightroom.

I think positioning yourself somewhere where cars are moving, but occasionally pause would be a great idea. This example was a 30-second exposure, and was lucky enough to get this ghosted image of the taxi which propped there temporarily waiting to turn right.

I have occasion to visit Singapore for work every now and then, and I love this area. Two questions, what time of day was it that there are so few people, it always seems to be teeming with people whenever I've been there. Secondly - was the sky manually masked? Quite a job I never have very good results when I try that.

Great job as always.

Not sure why the pic is sitting right over the right hand side of the browser page - did it look that way to you Billyspad?

I like how you handled the blown out sky areas. Did you give any special treatment to those areas, or did the HDR program make the adjustment?

SoHillGuy, Photomatix did an okay job, I darkened the brightest parts of the sky a little more in Photoshop as well though.

Definitely better, but you're right still there a little in the small version. I often find that, I mean, I process an image - think it looks great - then notice a bad halo in the thumbnail version in the folder when I save it, then like you I usually redo.

The other thing that bothered me about the image was that it looked too yellow, especially around the rocks, but that too I notice is in the original - must just be yellow rocks :-)

The other thing I noticed, which was also something I noticed every single day on my recent UK trip was the amount of people that wear bright red and pink clothes. There always seemed to be a woman in a pink jacket in all my photos - I think she was stalking me :-)

Great job Peter!

Recondo,
Welcome to UHH. It is a great place to learn and meet like-minded folks. I would also agree with the previous response that recommended finding a local camera club, there you'll meet face-face and most have great workshops and meet-ups.

I'm a Canon shooter, so can't really speak to your Nikon choice, but any modern DSLR is a great bit of equipment, and the aim is just to make the most of what you can afford and learn how to use it properly.

And the main thing … have fun!

Lovely as always Peter. Will have to get there next trip, did not make it to Cornwall on the trip this year.

When viewing the smaller version in the post I see a light halo along the horizon and around the island but this is not really visible on the full size version.

My question is how did you handle movement of people. Did you use the selective ghosting, or did you blend them back in from one of the exposures?

Wouldn't it be great if you could get access to places like this on your own!

Nice work as usual mate, your crop is excellent. Can't find too much to fault at all.
