On plugins and …

One thing that the exercise previously described has done is to encourage me to review where I should best store Plugins, and how they should be used in my Post-processing LrC Workflow. This has perhaps been highlighted by the decisions I have made around Topaz … Continue readingOn plugins and …

Apple Photos Cleanup
