Tim’s latest plugin (LR2/GMail) is pretty cool, particularly if you e-mail images to clients. This little export plugin lets you e-mail images [...]

Fishing lures are iridescent, bright and shiny so they stand out in a background where everything looks that same.

Ever since I got my Canon G9 and started having video files to manage I’ve been wishing Lightroom had the ability to manage my video files in the same folder structure that I keep my stills in. The files are all on the same card so why not keep the master files with the stills [...]
