I’ve decided to make a page to list all these reader suggested resources and things that I comment on.

The more I use Lightroom the more I’m convinced that it has the potential to nearly take over a Real Estate Photographer’s work-flow. I know, I’ve been chastized by my Mac user friends for not including Aperture… if I had a Mac I’d try it out.
