Desert Wreck


This is a view from Cool Springs Camp, along the Route 66 in Arizona.

Today I hooked up my MacBook Air with my external Samsung SyncMaster monitor, calibrated both of them, and run Lightroom with a secondary display. Anyone in doubt that the MBA can’t handle serious image editing are wrong – it works great. At least with Lightroom 2.0. Aperture is a bit slower, but still useable. Of course, a machine with higher spec’s is faster… but I love my MBA anyway! :-)

About this photo: It’s entirely made in Lightroom, no Photoshop. I made a greyscale conversion, and later applied a duo tone shade to it. I felt happy with it and exported it directly from LR.

    Yes, indeedy….I want a MAC. A different one, but a MAC…I shall have to wait…big sigh…

    I love this image. It’s gorgeous. The colors make it all the more exceptional. At least I’m viewing it through a Safari browser and believe it or not, photos do look better through Safari. They have such a rich tone. I love this image.

    Sherri, you’ll love a Mac when you get one. I need to upgrade to LR 2.0. This shot is worthy of my favs. Love it.

    @Sherri: Yes, go for a Mac. You won’t regret it. Once you switch, you won’t go back!

    cool photo, like the old wild west but instead of a skeleton of a horse, it’s a modern ironhorse.
