Lightroom 6.0

One of my Christmas presents was Adobe Lightroom 6.0, I was using Apple’s Aperture until it was discontinued in April 2015, but was no longer being developed since October 2014. Both are image organizer and photo processors. Last year I posted a photo on January 4th of our family.

Today I edited the photo using the Lightroom develop module and ended up with this version.

New Telephoto-zoom Lens

I recently bought a new telephoto-zoom lens, it’s something I have been researching for awhile. I found it in stock on-line, so I bit the bullet and ordered it. It is a Tamron 150-600mm ultra telephoto zoom lens. It’s big! Here are some of my first photos using it in the backyard.
