For years, like many of you, I was firmly entrenched in the Adobe ecosystem, specifically the Photography Plan with Lightroom and Photoshop. And, for years, I begrudgingly paid that monthly subscription, telling myself it was "just the cost of doing business" or "the price of professional tools."
But I'm here today to tell you: the shackles are off, and I've found true liberation!!!
Okay, let's talk about something that's been bugging me for a while: photo editing software.
Specifically, the dreaded monthly subscription model that seems to have taken over everything. Now, don't get me wrong, Adobe Lightroom has been a stalwart for many, and it's got its merits. But for me, the monthly fee just feels like a constant drain, and let's not even get started on its cataloging system. Seriously, it's like trying to find a needle in a haystack, only the haystack is full of half-edited photos you're not even sure you want to keep.
I f you’ve been following my antics, you’ll know I’ve been well and truly in "butterfly mode" lately. What does that mean? It mean...
