I should start with, if I could I probably would. But due to my Panasonic toughbook and windows 7 I can't use Light room. I am using a free editor call Photoscape and to be honest it does the job. Well at least at my level. My problem is this, all the pro's (including Steve) and every YT video refer to LR for everything. I have asked on many occasions for pro's to explain their edit in general terms but no one has ever come back to me. I also think maybe LR & PS are too powerful, I am completely blown away when I watch some guy take an average shot and then turn it into a masterpiece. Some pro's even admit when they are out and about they are simply gathering digital information to make the image later. This obviously does n't happen so much with wild life photography. I have found that my best shots don't really need or get that much editing and the average to poor are irrecoverable with my editor. So do I sell a kidney and get a new laptop and a years subscription to LR?
