[QUOTE="Fred Kingston_RIP, post: 323872, member: 10742"] I didn't say he didn't need 'software'... and/or that the Nik software may or may not be more efficient... :) If it's more efficient, only he can determine what will constitute "best practice" in his workflow... It's pretty common for most photographic oriented software to overlap in feature set... He acknowledges that... Every time I've looked at NIK, it's always been from the standpoint of "what am I gaining"... I imagine, if I'd never used LR... and owned NIK... I'd look at LR with the same intent. Since the combination of various software programs could potentially create an unlimited variable with regard to "best practices"... I'm goin' with, "best practice will become a personal thing, based on the feature sets of the programs involved, and the needs/desires of the individual photographer." IOW... there ain't no "best practice" :D [/QUOTE]
