thewayneYou can do a lot of things with Photoshop that don't include photography, so I put that little disclaimer there.
Once again, Humble Bundle has launched their Luminar Bundle. Lots of good software and add-ins, starting at $1 for their Photolemur entry product and $20 for the whole shebang. The charity for this package is Razom for Ukraine, provides "The current emergency response is focused on purchasing tactical medicine items and supplies for Ukrainian hospitals. supplies for critical situations like blood loss and other tactical medicine items. They have a large team of volunteers that tracks down and purchases supplies, and a logistics team that then gets them to Ukraine. They’re coordinating with several partner organizations worldwide and are also working with governments and embassies on establishing humanitarian corridors."
The money you pay for bundles, and you can pay more than the $20, is split three ways: between the charity, Humble, and the publisher. There's a widget on the right side that will let you divide the percentage split. Myself, I usually divide it into roughly even thirds.
The Bundle is up for twenty days.
One word of warning re: Luminar vs Photoshop. Unless Luminar has been changed to allow this, it is missing one feature that I find is kind of critically lacking. In Photoshop, you can create a new, blank, canvas to work with. For example, if I want to excerpt a graphic screen shot for reference and save it as a JPEG or TIFF, I can create a new file in PHotoshop, and it may recognize that I have a graphic in my paste buffer and size a new empty canvas appropriately, ready for me to paste my graphic into it.
Luminar does not (or did not) have the capability of creating a new blank canvas. It can (or could) only open photo files for editing. Which is absolutely fine for editing photos. It's just a slightly different layer of capability of functionality between the two products, and if this is something that you need to do sometimes, you're not going to find it in Luminar. I just wanted to give you a heads up and save you some frustration.
Luminar, and Photolemur, as amazing programs. But they're not the same as Photoshop. Some aspects are better, some worse, but they are not point to point the same.
