Did you perform the Windows specific install steps? If so, check that the Plug-in is enabled in Plug-in Manager. After all of that is done, go to File, Export and you should see LR/Mogrify 2 in the Post Process Action box on the lower right of the dialog.

I thought that my Canadian and hockey friends would appreciate this image!

Pat, I should clarify. Since LR's editing is non-destructive, it doesn't change your original image UNTIL you tell it to write any metadata changes. (See screenshot for specific command.) In the case of a NEF you will then have a XMP file.

Pretty recognizable scene from the Alhambra in Granada, Spain. My question and reason for posting is to start a dialog on composition. What do you do when you are surrounded by 4 walls? Go abstract? EXIF: D300, Sigma 10-20 @ 10mm, ISO 200, f/8.0, 1/250

Another image from our last trip to Spain. I think the color is good but I'd love some feedback on the composition. EXIF: D300, Nikkor 17-55 @ 48mm, ISO 160, Aperture Priority, f/2.8, 1/4000, processed and cropped in LR4 including addition of watermark and frame

I reworked it with Photomatix. . . still a little bit of halo effect but I'm very happy with the result.

Decided not to wait. . . rather than running it through Photomatix again, I thought I would take the center image and see what Topaz Adjust could do. I go for a while without using it and then, wow!

I was socializing the idea of a new body to my wife after the D7100 was announced. I was also toying with the idea of an Olympus OM-D. So last night my beloved asks what my intentions were since we are going to Spain and Portugal in a month. After ruling out the D7100, I told her I was thinking...

I was moving some images around between computers, and found an HDR that I never processed from our trip to Spain. We were there in the middle of the day and I wanted to try to capture the detail in the tile. I don't normally go for such a strong HDR effect but I think it works on this image. Is...

Jason Odell, who has long been an advocate for Capture NX2 for Nikon shooters, announced on his blog that he is moving to Lightroom for the majority of his post processing. I was surprised that he made the move, but impressed with his reasoning. I especially liked that he based his reasoning on...

I have a Nikon 1 V1 and have owned a PEN camera. They are pretty amazing as long as you understand the limitations. That being said, the OM-D E-M5 is very appealing to me. If you are interested, Thom Hogan posted an amazingly detailed review on his SansMirror site and PCMag also reviewed it.

I just found out that a book on using GIMP was published in January. It is called The Book of GIMP: A Complete Guide to Nearly Everything. I have not read it but did find one review that sounded pretty promising.

Nikon Europe has released a firmware update for the V1 today. So far it is not available on the US site. The update description is: "Immediately after the camera was turned on after attaching a lens, shooting display in the camera monitor or electronic viewfinder (view through the lens)...

Nice free video regarding the Local Correction capability of Lightroom 4. If you haven't taken advantage of this feature, this might help.

I've been to Paris quite a few times for work and pleasure and the first thing that caught my eye was the lack of cars on the wide streets! Link: Behold these rare color photographs from early 20th century Paris Example:

DPReview just posted a very good comparison of three of the leading cross-platform RAW converters: Capture One Pro 7, DxO Optics Pro 8 and Adobe Lightroom 4. Since the comparison compares products that work on both Mac and Windows, other options like Apple's Aperture are not included. Link to...

Nikon has an official grip for the Nikon V1 called the GR-N1000. The MSRP is US$120! Besides the outrageous price, it blocks the access to the battery and SD card! In order to remove either the battery or SD card, you also have to remove the grip. Terrible design. I recently became aware of...

Santa brought me a new MacBook Air to replace my 4+ year-old MacBook. Rather than migrating old stuff (e.g., I still had CS4 and CS5 loaded), I decided to do a clean install and carefully consider what I truly need and use to support photography while traveling. (I won't bore you with office...

Long overdue update to the LR3 thread. With the holidays and folks getting new cameras, computers and having time off (hopefully!), here is a link to Adobe's Using Lightroom 4 Manual. This is a freebie and a great place to start for new users. Enjoy...

Microsoft updated the Camera Codec Pack yesterday to support additional cameras. The Codec Pack enables the viewing of RAW file formats in applications such as Windows Explorer, Windows Photo Viewer, Media Center, and Windows Photo Gallery as well as other software that is based in Windows...
