Today had some moments of excitement as I was able to set aside about 30 minutes to devote to a lesson in my new "Classroom In A Book" for my photo editing program. The first part of the book is devoted to learning the Organizer portion of the program. Initially, I wasn't excited for that part. Sure, I could learn how to better organize my photos and that program would be nice, but not necessary. However, I was committed to working my way through this tutorial page by page, no skipping. I think the Organizer is going to be really beneficial to many goals! Today I learned how to import photos into the catalog and how to use some of the features like the slide show, selecting multiple photos for a group, and something really cool-- side by side viewing. How many times are you trying to decide which picture of blowing out the candles is best and you have to keep switching back and forth checking different elements?! This allows you to see side by side, zoom in to check the details, etc. That will be a time saver for sure!! Once again, I thoroughly enjoyed myself in the learning process and I hope I get to devote more time to my learning endeavors soon!
Also, on a side note, I'm pretty sure I haven't blogged this before? But, I learned a while back that there is a way to calibrate your computer screen to be able to accurately read color on your photos! There were many steps in one of the books I read. I need to recheck that one out and actually follow the steps. It seems so dumb that I wouldn't have done that and then be making light/color changes on photos!
