				I found a bunch of presets to import into Lightroom and I have been playing around a little bit with it.  This software can make anybody an artist.  Take a look at these before and after pics:

				It's pretty amazing what you can do with post processing.  From simple white balance correction to something extreme like this with one click of a button.  I think I just found my new toy for a few weeks!!

				From a purity point of view, I like the originals better.

				How much was that program. I am getting into editing and stuff. I have a DSLR camera too and want to get into taking some pics and doing that stuff. It looks rad.

				IIRC msrp is around $300 unless you have a student discount.  With a student discount I believe you can get it for around $100!!

				damn that is crazy money. But with the discount doesn't look to be too bad. Is photoshop CS4 kind of the same thing. Thats what I have. Or is it totally different.

				From what I have been told CS4 is a lot more advanced than this program.  If you have CS4 do a search for some presets and install them.  IIRC you can do the same thing with CS4 and Lightroom using the presets.
