Inside Lightroom Lightroom Secrets Adobe Lightroom synchronized on different Windows XP machines Here is how I am able have the same Lightroom working environment on different Windows XP machines. There are three requirements. First, that images are stored in a folder tree and that the folder tree is synchronized on the different machines. Second, that the Lightroom library folder tree and the Lightroom settings folder tree are synchronized on the different machines. On my systems, the Lightroom folder tree is within the images folder tree, and the Lightroom settings folder tree is C:\Documents and Settings\Dan\Application Data\Adobe\Lightroom I use Second Copy 7.0 for one-click synchronization, and there are various other tools that do this. The method has three parts. First, define a Desktop shortcut with the same name (Images, say) on each machine, and point this shortcut to the root of the image folder tree on each machine. Desktop:\Images\Canon 10D\Pomfret the location is resolved by Windows XP to D:\Photos\Canon 10D\Pomfret on the workstation, and to Z:\Photos\Canon 10D\Pomfret

Presets « Julieanne Kost's Blog After my 2-day class on creativeLIVE, I had a number of great questions that I wanted to answer. Well, I’ve finally had some time to sit down and answer them so that’s what I’llbe concentrating on this week. Today we’ll look at the questions about the Develop Module: 1) Guest6550: I created a folder for presets but couldn’t make another folder within that… is it possible? JK: Unfortunately, no – you cannot “nest” a folder of presets within another folder of presets in Lightroom. 2) lizj: can Julieanne show us how to install a preset we download from her blog (or from somewhere else)? JK: The easiest way to download the presets on my blog would be to do a search (in the upper right corner) for .zip. 3) SSchwarz: Is there a way to auto-balance several flash images? JK: Select all of the desired images in the Grid view and choose Photo > Develop Settings > Match Total Exposures. 5) Spencer: Is there -any- possible way to create a preset that rotates an image a set amount or set cropping?

They allow us to manipulate our images in ways never before imaginable or extremely time consuming to perform. These applications allow us to take a good photo and create amazing art from it. However, these tools can only do so much. Many of us have become lackadaisical photographers; we let the camera do too much work for us. Our computer tools are only capable of so much, and all they can work with is the information that they are given. Oftentimes we find ourselves focusing on the computer side of our workflow. I myself have three distinct phases to my pre-processing workflow. “Fix it in post” is one of those cliché statements that many often use Phase 1 – Camera Preparation The primary reasoning for this phase is that your camera is ready at a moments notice. Set your camera to RAW mode – You are using Lightroom, right? Phase 2 – On the Shoot Michael W.
