I'm going to take pictures at a Dog Walk later this month. My problem is that the humans' legs and other dogs get in the way of a good picture. I could try to get a clean (no people) picture of the area before the walk starts, but it would have to be at THE EXACT ANGLE as the pictures I end up taking, right? How do I get a clean picture of just the dogs I'm focusing on? I saw a picture of a co-photographer at a dog walk many years ago. His beautiful picture of dogs has haunted me. Mine had human legs and knees in it. lol

Ok. Thank you!

What does your set up at home look like? How tall is your desk? Do you have anything on the wall? My desk is too short to edit on my laptop. I put it on a thick book but then typing on it is awkward. I have the writing tablet which has helped so much with editing. I feel like my set up can be improved but not sure what to invest in yet. thanks.

No, it seems to be once I undo all crop and flattening to get back to the layers that I see those blue lines.

Ya, it seems so.

Whenever I crop once I've flattened the layer and cropped (I flattened first and then cropped), I can't get rid of the blue lines. It's very irritating.

Mine just arrived. Thanks!

I’ve been using my mouse for all my editing and it’s getting more difficult. Do you recommend using a pad for editing pictures?

This has not been edited in RAW yet. I'll just leave it here and move on to other photos.

When I restarted the computer it let me edit a picture in Bridge

Not that I can think of. It's been on...

Why is it saying this?

I'm not sure I knew that. What's the difference?

PERFECT!!

I am trying to save this picture to JPEG but my only option is JPEG 2000 which won't let me click on the ICC button and I can't find it in my files afterwards. Do you know what I'm doing wrong?

I see it. That's cool.

I got this far, and then wanted to play with the Effects.

I can't find where you added the Effects, Drop Shadow and Stroke. Where did that come from in the menus? I've gotten completely off track trying to figure it out.

It's working!

Ok. Understood.

Yes. Your instructions were to go to photoshop and open a raw file. That didn’t work so I asked for help. That’s when I tried to the Bridge to camera Raw to photoshop. im not sure I understand your comment. Did I go through the process correctly?

Ok. This time I opened in Bridge, then ACR and THEN photoshop. That worked. Do I always have to go that route?

OK. I tried to start in Bridge but when I went from Bridge to Photoshop it gave me the same error message.

I tried to open directly from photoshop from my photo files. Do I need to start in Bridge?

When I try to open a CR2 file it gives me this error message and when I click on the link on the right it takes me to this page. I use Creative Cloud. I went there and it appears that I have the most up to date version. Do I really need to unistall it and revert to an older version of photoshop??
