In a way, Phottolemur allows me to correct images without altering the essence of it, saving me a lot of time working, since I do not have to use photo editing software. This interesting software has options that allow you to retouch images without modifying, that is, to clean images that for one reason or another do not look very clear or deserve more detail. Photolemur has been my ideal complement for the retouching of photographs and images that I receive firsthand. I also had a problem with getting the library file disconnected and had to re-connect it when a OS update was installed. Saved so many of my film images! CONSīecause I have over 40K images in my library, it takes longer than I would like to start up the program (although they have greatly improved that recently).

Worse, who ever did that with film? Nobody. It is truly amazing that they can even do the little spots of sky in a tree between leaves! I used to spend hours trying to fix the sky in Photoshop, if I remembered to capture a sky image to go with the ground image. I absolutely LOVE the sky replacement function! That, plus the various simplified and powerful AI tools for image enhancement and correction make it an easy and short job to take an image that I would never have used into a work of art! Images I have never bothered with because they are too dark, with a white sky, are now glowing in beauty with one of many many beautiful daytime, sunrise, storm, or sunset sky images. All of the massive calculations done by the program to get the results shows amazing smarts at Skylum and their excellent programmers! PROS Actually, it is really PI (Programmer Intelligence). But for just making my images come to life? Luminar every time! AI just added another dimension by making the software more clever and calling it AI. I still use Photoshop when working with graphics and compositions for ads, or when I need layers. It is that I can adjust an image very quickly in Luminar that would take hours in Photoshop (and I would never get to the same glorious photo because it takes too long).

I am also an experienced user of Photoshop, so it is not that I don't want to learn Photoshop. Of course before LuminarAI was Luminar 4, then 3, then 2, then just plain ol' Luminar.
