I haven’t had too much time for myself lately. Or at least if feels that way since I haven’t had a lot of time to work on my photography. I did finally get one small pet project of mine completed recently. That being a rebuild of my computer and an upgrade to an 64 bit operating system. Normally I am not one for lots of hardcore system reinstallation type work. But I finally bit the bullet. One of the prime motivators was the fact that I was trying to do some things in photoshop that my current operating system would just not handle.
So now I have a 64 bit operating system, and 64 bit versions of Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop running. Now I’ll just need so see if I can get that extra 10% of improved performance out of the new setup.
As a first test run I processed a photo I took of the clock tower across the street this fall. All my programs seem to be working well. It will be time to get back into the swing of things once I can get the little one down to sleep.
