LR works great for me. RAW looks good, the speed is good, the results are good.

If you make the merest effort, you can find cutting-edge rail photography here.

I would say that the wide onus against RP comes from the rejection process.

Both sides proceed to act badly in...

I understand that the "fake vs real" discussion was alive the night before the recent Lerro charter.

Great photo!

But I can't like it because it is not real.

(Just busting my friend's chops)

Notice how an image must be reality-based for you to relate to it?

Why?

Is it not possible to simply say "Wow, I like that, I don't care how it was made!"
