  • What is your opinion on the Lightroom Classic V13 Splash Screen?
    No offence to the photographer, but truth be told, we think it’s terrible. By the way, Version 13 also keeps on crashing. Anyone else have the same experience with it?

    • I think this image portrays exactly the sort of woke culture we are currently experiencing, this is a gender neutral image, its really a very uninspiring image.

    • Some interesting new tools in the update. I have played with the background blur. Every now and again it would seem like LrC is processing a bit longer, but I haven’t experienced a crash…but then I may not have pushed it enough!

    • Next time, consider incorporating more foreground elements and using the road as a leading line. These techniques can add depth and guide the viewer’s eye through your landscape shots. Additionally, a bit more colour in the sky would enhance the overall impact.

    Lunch atop a Skyscraper is an iconic black-and-white photograph taken on September 20, 1932. It shows eleven ironworkers seated on a steel beam, 260 meters above ground level, during the construction of the RCA Building, now known as 30 Rockefeller Plaza.…Read More

    • In this photo, Charles C. Ebbets stands high above New York City with a bulky camera in hand. He looks cool and confident, even in a situation that would make most of us dizzy. He’s known for taking risks to get the perfect shot, and this picture shows that spirit perfectly.

      How far would you go to get the photo you want?

    • The split lighting is perfect, and the separation between your subject’s right shoulder and the backdrop is well-executed. We would have liked to see a bit more of your subject’s face, and the head might be better if not as tilted. Overall, a well-executed low-key portrait.

    • Have you considered cropping just above the knee to give your subject more impact by making them appear larger? We’d also prefer a softer transition of the backdrop towards the right side. Fortunately, this is an easy fix in Lightroom.
