Adventure Web Gallery 3

Web Gallery 3 represents a deeper exploration of Iceland, and of Lightroom. These 14 photographers scoured the countryside for compelling images, then processed the pictures using the Develop module in Lightroom. General discussion around the editing table is the the Develop and Print modules are the stars of the application at this point. Most of the photographers were able to handle their processing in Lightroom, with the exception of removing sensor dust, which required a quick trip to Photoshop for the cloning tool.

We've been making 13" x 19" prints with the two Epson R2400s provided by Epson for this project. The workflow involved editing the images in the Develop module, then exporting them into the DNG format. They were transferred to our printing workstation (also running Lightroom) and printed on the R2400s. We used the DNG format for transfer because it contains all of the editing information, thereby retaining the corrections made by the original photographer. The prints look spectacular. They will be on display Friday night at a special reception in Reykjavik.

We also employed the Slideshow module for a looping presentation of 150 images. First task was to create an Iceland Adventure template, then use it to present 10 images by each of the photographers. So far, the slideshow is shaping up well, although we still have some work to do on it.

On Saturday, we fly out of Iceland and head for home. I still have more to post, and I'll do my best to get stuff online as my schedule allows.
