Perfect, super easy- thank you so much!!

Hi Damien! I have freed myself from Lightroom but there is one feature I am missing dearly, is there an equivalent option to "Create a Virtual Copy" that I can find in ACR? I was using this feature when I wanted to deliver the same photo in color and in Black & White. The only solve I can think of is to just do my B&W's in Photoshop with a "Save As" and create a duplicate file? I did a quick search through your site and couldn't find anything related, feel free to just shoot me a link if there is a better way or solution that I missed! Thanks in advance!

Hi Brian! I am working through Damien's Bridge class and trying to overhaul my workflow. I was attempting to implement Damien's recommendation of NOT working off an External Hard Drive (as I currently do) and asked a question regarding saving images to my desktop and was referred to this thread by Damien: https://ask.damiensymonds.net/topic/33422-ive-been-saving-on-my-desktop/ After reading (and comprehending that it is a terrible idea to save things to your Mac desktop) I noticed at the end your recommendation that if your internal Hard Drive is tiny you ~can~ work off an external which I think is my best option. I am currently saving for a computer upgrade so I am looking for help with a Band Aid for my ancient 2014 MacBook Air. After reading this thread: I am trying to compare: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ND4DV9M/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1 and it's counterpart that appears to be more portable: https://www.amazon.com/G-Technology-G-Drive-Portable-External-0G10348/dp/B07G4DWPCP/ref=sr_1_4?crid=NQ0Y98YWZGKO&dchild=1&keywords=g-technology+4tb+g-drive+with+thunderbolt&qid=1624424637&s=electronics&sprefix=G-Technology+4TB+G-DRIVE+thunder%2Celectronics%2C174&sr=1-4 Is there any reason I can't go with the more portable option? As long as I am okay with it sucking my battery since it doesn't have its own external power source? Additionally- I am looking for your advice on if you think I will be okay working off of a USB 3.0? Or do I need really need make the leap to a Thunderbolt? Thank you so much in advance for your help! Emma
