People's thoughts on Adobe CC photoshop

2017-11-16 Thread Bipin Gupta
I've been using Photoshop for donkey years, but stopped with the CS6
version for a couple of reasons:
a) Photography is my hobby and I am not into it for money. Also I have
this idiosyncrasy to own the very best of things like shoes- Bata,
Cameras - Pentax, Watch - Rolex & Omega, Cars - Infinity, Travel
Luggage - Samsonite & so on.
But I changed to a 4K Intel Core i7 laptop, and the fonts + modules
appeared miniscule and I could not read them. Adobe & Microsoft were
at loggerheads blaming each other so the problem remains unsolved.
RIP Photoshop CS6.
b) $ 10 a month may appear small, but I would rather own my own
software which resides on my own machine, not somewhere in the cloud.
Reason why I have not moved into a Gated Community where you pay a
monthly service + maintenance charge and listen to all the Rules they
make.
I rather have my own little house at the meeting point of 4-Roads -
what is called a unique corner site.
c) I have used a number of Software - Pentax's own PDCU5, Cyberlink
Photo Director, DxO Optics Pro, Lightroom + some more, but find LR CC
2015.12 with the NIK interface the friendliest, easiest & fast.
d) I am aware that Photoshop is the Studio Owner's and Pro Photogs
favorite, so they will have to go on using it in whatever way Adobe
hands it out to them - whether they have a choice or not.
Not for me, as I will move on to something else like Luminar, GIMP etc.

Thanks for reading.

Re: People's thoughts on Adobe CC photoshop

2017-11-16 Thread Brian Walters
Well, I'll add my 2 cents...

I used the CC Photographer's Plan when it first appeared and kept at it for
about 18 months. Prior to that I was using CS3. However, I found that I just
wasn't making use of CC's additional features over CS3 (other than occasional
use of the dehaze filter), so I cancelled the subscription and went back to CS3.
 CS3 handles raw DNGs from my K5 and, with the Metaraw plugin I can even open
raws from my Olympus OMDs.

I’ve got an old copy of photoshop that I got through a friend who works at 
adobe. Every feature that I found myself needing in it has been rolled into

It’s good for professionals that use photoshop. It’s less good for folks who 
just use Lightroom.  I don’t know of a single feature in Lightroom CC I need 
that isn’t in LR6.  For that matter, there are serious issues with the cool new 
features in LR6 that makes them much less useful than they could be.  The 
subscription cost is about the same as the cost of upgrading every year, with 
the added cost of losing the ability to edit photos if I stop upgrading.   Yes, 
in theory, I could always fall back to LR6, until they change the processing 
engine.

Re: People's thoughts on Adobe CC photoshop

2017-11-16 Thread Doug Brewer
I use it. I don't use it as much as I use Lightroom, but I do sometimes 
slide it open if I determine I need something it offers that LR doesn't, 
and it works. The newest version is pretty snappy, even on my relatively 
old MBP, although I have to say I seldom work with excessively large files.


Editing photos rises to the level of meditative state for me, during 
which I immerse myself in the process and shut out the dark noise of the 
world for a while, and for that state I find it difficult to get too 
torqued up about ten bucks a month. Your mileage, of course, may vary.

I haven't used Photoshop CC but if you want to work for pay, in any part 
of the graphics, industry that's what you use.


I'm still using Photoshop CS2.  I'm not an artist or illustrator, 
professional or otherwise. I'm an, occasionally good, photographer.  I 
don't need 90% of the features that Photoshop, even a version as 
ancient, as CS2 provides.


There are a number of Photoshop competitors that appear to have almost 
the same features for less money or are available for outright 
purchase.   Unless there is something you /need/ that only the latest 
version of Photoshop has, which seems unlikely for a Photographer, 
there's no need to upgrade.


The current business model that Adobe is following is good for most 
professionals, it's also very, very good for Adobe who seem to be 
minting money at the moment.  It's not so good for the average 
photographer, who needs to upgrade occasionally as hardware improves and 
those improvements are happening with much less frequency.

Re: PESO 2017 - 119 - GDG

2017-11-16 Thread Godfrey DiGiorgi
Hallo! Thank you for the compliments. 

Ken, I actually did that on one rendering. To my eye, it lost something in the 
process … so I put them back. I like the notion that they convey: that you're 
at a public viewpoint looking out over the Coachella Valley and into the desert 
beyond. They give a near-frame reference point to gauge the distance, at least 
to my eye.

The original res merged raw file is both highly detailed and enormous—about 
17,300x3700 pixels; about 57 Mpixels—so I'm going to see about making a 13x56 
inch-sized canvas print.  :-)

onwards!

Thanks, John. As I explained earlier, 
the problem was it wouldn't open with my phone, but was fine with
the desk top. Corrected the URL 
for the phone folks.
Thanks, John!
