Last week we explored the differences between Lightroom and Photoshop to help you choose the software package that best suits your needs. In the video below, image-editing expert Peter McKinnon explains why he says, “Every photographer should be using Lightroom.” 

Photoshop’s powerful Radial Gradient Tool can be used for a variety of applications. In the straightforward tutorial below, image-editing expert Blake Rudis explains why this oft-ignored tool is one of his favorites, and how you can use it to easily enhance both landscape and portrait photographs.

Back in April Nikon introduced a selection of special edition DSLRs, commemorative lenses, binoculars and collectibles in celebration of the company’s 100th Anniversary, which falls on July 25. And now the iconic brand has added to their collection of anniversary products with a snazzy leather camera bag, 10 limited-edition posters, and vintage t-shirts for men and women.

One of the most frequent questions we receive from those new to image editing is, “Should I buy Lightroom or Photoshop?” The simple answer is, “It depends.” For some photographers Lightroom is the best choice, while for others Photoshop makes more sense. And depending upon one’s needs, we may recommend getting both.
