You probably also know you can resize the brush by using the left and rick bracket keys on your keyboard (they’re to the immediate right of the letter “P). OK, here’s one you may not know, and it’s really handy. If you hold Option-Command (PC: Alt-Ctrl), you can click and drag out the brush size to exactly the size you need it (no slider, or bracket keys, or dragging the edges of the circle after...

“Botswana offers incredible biodiversity and ecosystems for wildlife photography,” explains Vicki Santello. “It’s one of the locations in Africa I visited annually to capture unique images. On this particular trip, my guide spotted a leopard tucked into the fork of a large tree. It’s a credit to his spotting skills that he noticed her because she was well hidden inside the inner cavity. Only the top of her head and ears were visible. We drove up slowly and stopped a respectful distance away to ensure she didn’t feel threatened. “She ignored us completely for the first 20 minutes, during which time we could only see the tips of her ears. Eventually, she raised her head to check us out but only...

Anytime I write about abstract photography, I like to include the quote from the famous photographer Minor White: “One should not only photograph things for what they are but for what else they are.” – Minor WhiteThe shot at left is a pleasant landscape image.

I was asked this question recently, and wanted to share my thoughts about the short answer, and the longer answer. One caveat, this article and answers are directed at people who are primarily Lightroom Classic (LrC) users who are interested in also syncing their LrC catalog to the cloud.

The Short Answer The short answer often given to this question is, no, pick one or the other, stick with that, and don’t look back. I have given that answer in the past, and depending on the context, am likely to give it...
