It does seem to me - judging by the multitude of posts from the two of you - that you and Sandman are quite willing to join in just for the sake of argument. only because there are so many ignorant posts from people pretending they know what they're talking about and saying incorrect and very stupid things. |

This is hilariously stupid on its own, and nospam made an example where this workflow's worst side is exposed - i.e. when you use it to organize your photos based on criteria in the photographs. Where do you get "criteria in the photographs"? What doesn't you understand? It was outline in the example. I doesn't understand what you're reading. I copy an image to a folder based on the intended use of that image. The "example" was on a non-related requirement to link a photo by some aspect *in* the image. Since I don't do what's in the example, the use of "when you use to organize your photos base on criteria in the photos" is completely incorrect and, as you are wont to say, irrelevant. Any photos I copy to a separate folder are copied to that folder for the *use* to which I intend to put them. They are placed in that folder as final edits that will be used to post to a forum or somesuch. The criterion for each is the end use, not the variables in the content. Which is irrelevant to the example. And, the example is irrelevant to what I do. The photo in that separate folder may be different from the photo used in Lightroom. For no good reason. Some forums and contests require a certain size for the image that is not the size that I want to retain as the original in LR. Which is why LR has an export command to deal with such matters without the need for you to do it manually. There's that plug-in again that allows you to use Lightroom by mind control. In my Lightroom, I can enter the width and height in the export sequence, but I have to do that manually. Keyboard strokes are used just as the manual keyboard strokes are used when not in Lightroom to do the same thing. Once the dimensions and other characteristics of the export are set, you can export one photo or a million without touching them again. If you're not using Lightroom to deal with images in quantity you probably don't need it to begin with. Bingo! I shoot between 30 & 400 images on a shoot. They are viewed and probably over 90% discarded. That does not make for processing a lot of images. LR is great for some photographers, but I foundit does nothing for me. -- PeterN |

I assume you didn't see the amazingly craptacular workflow Tony is employing and thus can't begin to understand just how out of whack he is from the "most people" realm. It was hilarious and disturbing to see the hoops he would jump through that normal people just don't have to think about at all. For him it's a hobby. No, it's a train wreck. It's a hobby as much as someone continuously banging his head with a hammer is a "hobby". And you earlier claimed not to have triedto dictate workflow? 1. Me criticizing someone doing something wrong doesn't constitute me dictating workflow As I said earlier, unless you fully understand his needs, you cannot say he's wrong. You'd have a point if I ever said that he was wrong, which I haven't. I have said that his workflow is amazingly complicated, and unnecessary so. These claims are 100% correct and does not constitute me dictating his workflow or even saying that he's doing it wrong. He can continue using an overcomplicated workflow all he wants, and in fact, I expect nothing less (in spite of him actually asking to learn how it could be made easier there is no chance he would ever take my advice - or at least not tell us he did so). If you think he's wrong, and understand HIS needs, perhaps a constructive solution would be in order. Already given. In spite of me never saying he is wrong. my personal opinion is that if it is working for him, that's fine with me. It's "fine" for me to. How he works has no affect on my what so ever. But that doesn't mean I can call his workflow horrendous and complicated (which it is) and that it doesn't have to be (which it doesn't). My own system is not that much different from his. Systems used by some of my fellow CC members are similar, with each adjusted to the maker's workflow. Then the same applies. I guess you jjust don't understand the meaning of your statement: "I assume you didn't see the amazingly craptacular workflow Tony is....." I will not further educate you on the suitabilities in meaning of the vernacular. -- PeterN |

Anytime I have shot sports, I look for action blurs, and sideline expressions. But then, I have no grandchildren. I have no problem with shutter speeds and freezing action. My problems are mostly around not having a lens that allows me to zoom in on an individual in that scrum of bodies. It's rare that I get to be close enough to the action. I have to wait in the end zone and hope they make to the red zone. Sometimes I get a sideline expression and treat it a bit different in post: https://www.dropbox.com/s/lsyuhw7o91...1-10-01-07.jpg That's a nice representation of your grandson. -- PeterN |

Me criticizing someone doing something wrong doesn't constitute me dictating workflow It's an interesting semantic argument. Maybe. If you consider "dictating" to mean "determining what others should do", then you are not dictating. You have no ability to determine what others do. If you consider "dictating" to mean "determining what is the right way to do something and what is the wrong way to do it", then you are dictating. Why would I consider "dictating" to mean "determining what is the right way to do something"? That's not what "dictating" means. Are you using your "funny" dictionary now? Either way, I've done neither. I have called the workflow overly and unnecessary complicated, which it is. I've called it stupid and hilarious, but I haven't said that it's wrong. Wrong implies that I know what is correct, or that there even is a way to determine what is the right and wrong way. What one CAN determine is what is a better or worse way to do things when considering the known factors, which is exactly what I've done. So, this was yet another lie from you. snip -- Sandman[.net] |

What I can't figure out is why you people that have no knowledge or experience with computers still choose to pick a fight with people that have worked with this for decades. Neither you, PeterN or Tony have any knowledge about databases, file systems or even computers. They're just tools for you and you know next to nothing about how they actually work, yet you come here arguing until you can't breathe and when proven wrong and wrong again you just answer with "Hah!" and think that somehow reinforces your position? That's just sad. It's sad that you make assumptions. Just where is your proof that I have "knowledge about databases, files systems or even computers"? I earerly await the facts supporting your statement with bated breath. Uh, hi Peter. I can't remember to having made any comments about your lack of knowledge about any of those. COuld you please direct me to that post so I can review it for myself and get back to you on this? Thanks in advance! Read your above paragraph. Yes! I did start the quote with the word: "knowledge" I should have started the quote with "no knowledge...." Now that I cleared up my typo, please answer the question. -- PeterN |

I am passing judgement on his choice of workflow. I am calling it stupid and overly complicated. But that does not mean I am telling him *how* to do it, nor does it mean I am saying that his way is *wrong*. I will not further educate you on the suitabilities in meaning of the vernacular.

Actually, Lightroom makes the entire review and discard phase much much easier, especially if you have up to 400 shots in a session. (Disclaimer: I use Aperture, the above assumes that Lightroom at least has a comparable review and discard process as Aperture) -- Sandman[.net] |

All I am doing is correcting misinformation (and in your case, lies). I am not arguing because that requires a receiving end that is able to understand an argument. I am explaining, more for the benefit of some third party reader thy may stumble upon one of you guys posts and mistake it for a factual post. -- Sandman[.net] |
