How to Talk To a Photographer, Pt. 32

Among the questions that still surprise me are, "Do you shoot digital?" and, Do you have your own dark room?" I say surprise because just try to find a film still camera for sale. I have one. It's the same one I used in Viet Nam over 50 years ago. To shoot professionally today, making pictures for paying clients, not making art you hope to sell, you must have a digital camera and developing software. It's in memory of the dark rooms in which we once worked that #Adobe named its developing software #Lightroom. I've used it for nearly 10 years and, after trying a few newcomers to the market, I still believe it's the best.

The developing possibilities of large RAW files in Lightroom are demonstrated below.
