I very much appreciate you guys input. I have briefly looked around at a few learning aids from Adobe and youtube. I have duel monitors so I think that would adapt quite well. One another subject, I'm in the process of de-cluttering in order to down size. My grandson noticed a set of 50 pound bookshelf speakers in the trash pile and asked "where is the Bluetooth synch button?". When I caught my breath I pointed to the two clips on the back and told him about 30 years from now. He loaded them in his Mustang to take home. What a funny/sad moment. Thanks again guys.
After putting most of my photography including editing on hold due to family health issues I’ve found some time to get back into it on a limited basis. I’ve renewed my PS subscription and like most things it has changed since my last version which I think was around 7 or 8 years ago. The Kelby Photoshop for photographers’ book I last used is CS5. My first question is how much of the info in my CS5 book such as edits, filters etc. can be used with current software including LR? I was on the road for months at a time and had time to practice and learn from others and became comfortable with it. I respect the opinion of those on this sight and would appreciate any thoughts on getting back up to speed and which publications would be a good starting point using the new software including LR.
I'm sitting smiling, remembering all the furry family members who'd passed on. Sixty Nine years later and I still remember my first one, Puddles, a stray that showed up at our back door. Thanks Tinyman.
Interesting story jaymatt. I had a similar issue with a laptop a few years ago. Part of my job was to set up laptops with estimating programs and one of them was "locked" and wouldn't respond to any of the standard restart, reset etc solutions. I got in touch with our IT department and was instructed to raise the machine about 3 inches off the table and let it drop. Problem solved.
Nice shot and great story. Love the comments by others :) Like someone else said, The things we do for our wives. My wife has dementia so I often do things over and over and over and...
When I was redeployed to Germany in the early 70's The Minolta SRT-101 and Nikon F's were what all the GI's wanted. I couldn't afford one of them so I bought a Petri w/1.8 lens. About all I remember about it was it had a 1/1000 shutter and was manual. I shot with it for almost three years until it took a fall out of a helicopter and I replaced it with a Nikon F which I still have.
