Man I so don't understand a lot of what y'all are talking about. Keystoning?
That was what they used to do to immoral women from Pennsylvania. But not
anymore right? I thought Jimmy Carter put a stop to it.

Tina: While I have no idea what it really means I do see that in Camera Raw
preferences in PS / Bridge you can tell it to save settings in a sidecar
"xmp' file. Is that what you mean that LR does and that PS doesn't do? If so
then perhaps in CS4 you can do it.

Anyway I've just fiddled with two photographs -- opened them in Camera Raw
and did some basic stuff, largely warming of the "temperature" which I
assume is like the K settings I fool with on camera for white balance. Some
color adjustments. Really basic stuff. Then I went into PS for real with the
second one and struggled mightily with the lasso until i discovered you can
fix your jagged mistakes in your lasso borders.... ho hum anyway I managed
to isolate and lower the brightness of some reflected light in the glass
you'll see in the second photo. I notice if I lowered the brightness too
much I started to get color fringing along the border of my selected area
(purple glow -- I assume that's what's called fringing, oui?). So I'm off to
the races now by God.

I think I'll absolutely HAVE to do my real work now as the week's vacation
ended two hours ago while I was breaking my arm with the lasso tool. I'll
send a link when my lame Windows upload to the web wizard finally decides it
can deal with these GIGANTIC files. One of them is 26 MB now. It has live
alone on the external T-boy I think...
