Digital photography and picture management
« on: August 26, 2006, 09:10:00 AM »
Hi all, just curious as to what everyone uses to work with digital pictures (and scanned pictures for that matter).  We use a couple of programs, for general viewing, we use Google's Picassa2 and the Microsoft Picture viewer that comes with Office 2003,  Picassa also works really well for printing and minor editing, cropping, sharpness, etc, but if there's more detailed work that needs to be done on the pictures, then it's Photoshop, or Photoshop Elements, like what I had to do with the diving pictures.  
 
 What is your preference?
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Without doubt it has to be Photoshop. I use Photoshop CS and can't imagine how I could live without it.
 
 I'll use Windows Picture and Fax viewer when I just want to scroll through a directory of images to look at.
 
 I also have a program called "Exif Pro Image Viewer" for when I need to look at all the EXIF data that is part of every digital camera image.
