Luminar 2018
This has been a slow month for me as I recover from shoulder surgery. Until the past couple of days I was typing one handed - left handed at that, which may not seem like a problem to my left handed friends, but for me, it was a chore that I really didn't enjoy.
That being said, here are a few updates as I have been playing with Luminar 2018 for Windows. This is a great photo editing program very intuitive and easy to use. As a library manager, it is lacking, they are saying early 2018 they will be releasing the Digital Asset Management module. Will it replace Lightroom? That is a personal preference.
Here is a quick YouTube video that talks about Luminar
The lists of Luminar 2018 YouTube videos is growing by the day. So don't hesitate to wander around YouTube (and Pinterest too) looking at all the Luminar thoughts
Here is a quick comparison between Lightroom and Luminar

Street Photography
Interested in Street Photography?
With the holidays approaching our candid holiday pictures could qualify for street photography. Many opportunities will be available to us to take candid (street photography?) shots. There will be many opportunities and we don’t have to worry about explaining to strangers what we are doing.
Here is a link to a great article I found on the Digital Photography School site.
Got some ideas on this subject? Send them to me and I will post them.
