Adobe Lightroom: what is it, where do you get it, what does it cost?

May 7, 2022 by Life after Photoshop

Adobe Lightroom is not one program but three. You could easily call it an ecosystem. At heart, it’s a tool for both organizing your photos and editing them. So how do you get it, what does it cost, and which version do you need?

Lightroom vs Photoshop: which program should you use and when?

April 15, 2022 by Life after Photoshop

Lightroom vs Photoshop, which is best? It’s not that simple, as anyone who uses them will know, because although there is some crossover (well, a lot of crossover), they have very different roles and very different strengths and weaknesses.

Adobe Lightroom Classic review (2022)

April 13, 2022 by Life after Photoshop

Verdict: 4.5 stars Lightroom Classic’s latest masking tool updates make it more powerful than ever, though it’s still not fast to use and its interface is quite cluttered and oppressive. And do we still need all these different modules?

Adobe Lightroom review (2022)

March 6, 2022 by Life after Photoshop

Lightroom 2022

Verdict: 4 stars Lightroom is Adobe’s bold vision of a cloud-based photo organizing and editing tool where all your images can be organised, edited and viewed anywhere on any device. For mobile users and content creators it’s a clever and effective proposition, but for regular photographers, while its editing tools continue to impress, its restrictions, the closed nature of its editing ecosystem and its cost remain a major barrier.
