Shame on the author for being so uninformed on a topic about which she is purporting to provide advice. (Reading the first two items on the list and the first sentence of the third was sufficient for the purposes of steering my mother-in-law away from this article.) This list is best ignored. I''ll stop there, because that''s where I stopped reading the article. Lightroom is a photo organizer with basic editing capabilities, while Photoshop is a powerful photo editor that can''t be used to organize photos. 'Adobe Lightroom for Mac is the Photoshop version of Mac.' That''s incorrect Lightroom and Photoshop are two different applications with two different primary functions. Photography is one of the few universal art forms thateveryone can participate in, and digital photography more than any other formof photography has expanded the possibilities of what we can. Aperture was no longer available for purchase about a year before this article was published, with Apple announcing plans to stop supporting Aperture in favor of its Photos app long before that.ģ. Google started phasing Picasa out at least six months before this article was published. (Maybe ask your son-in-law if you have one?)ġ.
Basically, my message is to pretend like this article doesn''t exist and find another resource. I write this comment in the hope that it may help others avoid wasting time (as my mother-in-law did) relying on this article, and not with the specific aim of criticizing the author for publishing an ill-informed, sloppily researched article.
