I downloaded Lightroom 2.0 to play around... boy I love it! I need to buy it as soon as I can afford it!

Your taste may be different then mine but I love the clarity I got on this image in LR2 vs the images I got from Elements 6

Wow! I love the eyes! I just downloaded lightroom, too, but haven't been able to get it to work with my camera's files. I love what you did. Great shot!

I just started playing with it today... I am not sure what all file types it supports... I am importing RAW files into it... what file type are you working with?

Alison - can you run that same edit through Elements 6 and then put them side by side? I'm loving the clarity of this one but I thought your others had the same clarity.

Are the highlights a little more intense in the Lightroom one? Well, for that matter, are the blacks a little more contrasty too? Like in his hair...

I like Sis don't see a big difference in the two softwares, honestly they both look good to me. I'm very interested in your comparison though and looking forward to the color comparison you are going to post.

I was importing RAW files as well. I use Canon's. Don't remember which of my cameras it came from though.

I do see a bit of different. Your Elements shots seem a little flatter to me.

Only the software that is from your camera manufacturer should produce the "best results", but it is a subjective thing. We discuss a lot of this in the Image Editing forum, and we discuss Lightroom and PS in there as well.

Honestly, Lightroom does a good job, but it really shines when you make a Develop preset that works best for you, and on your images, from your camera. Therefore, Canon or Olympus should be developed differently. I have a preset for my camera.

As for this image, it is rally nice in the eyes. I don't go so much for the "bright" look however, but some like it.
