A Creative Lightroom Training Day
12th February 12
As photographers, it can sometimes be very daunting (not to mention exceptionally frustrating!) when you have spent time and money on the latest and greatest photographic software, only to find that when you install it on your own computer things don't always integrate as seamlessly as you would like! Not only that, all those great features you saw expertly demonstrated on a video or at an exhibition don't seem to work in quite such a simple way, and let's face it, who wants to read a manual from cover to cover? It would be a far better use of your time actually taking photographs! Adobe Photoshop Lightroom is a truly fantastic piece of software specifically designed for photographers, and with some guidance can prove to be a HUGE time saver. More info -
