Lightroom.
I am currently on a 30 day trial for Lightroom 4. I have heard a great deal about this alternate processor from photographers and lecturers. They say it is better than Photoshop. I can't make a judgement to that yet, seeing as I am only on day 2, however I know it is complimentary to RAW processing and great for creating an effective workflow. I have also been intrigued by the dramatic skies and tones, particularly found in Landscape. I find that these effects, add some dimension to average photo of some hills and some sky.
It is all about experimenting really.
This is what I shall be working on for the next month, dipping in and out of the features and hope to find some light and some purpose that could help me delve deep into the photographic industry. I'm sure everyone wants to try this but I think you can still create unique images, even if this is a popular piece of software. Every Photoshop image isn't identical. I am going to strive to make my images different or at least add my own touch to them.
I am quite pleased with my first edit, but it is not until you use the Before/After mode that you can see what a difference is really made. And that is another thing that Photoshop doesn't have, unless you do it manually and as a plus, the original photo is left untouched, meaning you could create as many edits as you so wish without destroying the image.
Lightroom certainly has a promising start.
