Once upon a time, Apple and Adobe were best buddies. While onlya minority of personal computers were Macs, if you were seriousabout graphics or design, you ran Adobe software like Photoshop,and while that software was available for both Windows and Mac, youprobably ran it on Apple hardware.

While there's been nothing as definitive as a divorce, theApple/Adobe relationship has been somewhat strained for the pastfew years. As Windows system became more graphics-able, anincreasing percentage of Adobe's revenues came from Windowsversions of the company's software.

And as Adobe's attentions turned more and more to Windows users,Apple began releasing Mac-only products, such as Final Cut Pro,that competed with Adobe products, in this case Premiere.

When Apple began bundling iPhoto with new Macs, Adobe developedthe similar Photoshop Album - for Windows only.

Despite the tensions, Adobe continues developing Mac versions ofmuch of its product line. (Though not all - development of the Macversion of Premiere stopped in 2003, for instance.)

Photoshop Elements 4.0

While Adobe made its reputation with graphics software aimed atprofessional users, one of my favourite Adobe programs is graphicssoftware for the rest of us, Adobe Photoshop Elements. Version 4.0is available for Mac users.

Priced at US$90 ($80 for download; upgrade pricing: $70 on disc,$60 download), Photoshop Elements delivers a significant percentageof the power of the full version of Photoshop (like like previousversions of Elements) at a significant discount. (The full versionof Photoshop sells for US$649.)

Elements 3.0 significantly changed the interface. Versions 1 and2 had an interface barely modified from big-brother Photoshop,which was nice for people looking for a cheaper version of thepro-level toolkit - but not especially easy for new users. Version4.0 keeps the newer, easier to use interface.

New to Elements is Adobe Bridge, also available in the latestversions of Adobe's pro-level Creative Suite. Bridge, like iPhoto,makes it easy to access a large collection of photos through setsof thumbnails; keywords can be assigned to individual photos orsets to simplify searches.

A Quick Fixmode may be all many users ever use. (Two buttons on the toolbarmake it easy to switch between Quick Fix and Standard Edit modes.)The Quick Fix interface offers a minimal number of tools, alongwith lighting, coloring, redeye, and sharpening fixes. Users canexperiment with sliders to make changes to their photos or simplyclick Auto buttons to see what the software suggests. A single AutoSmart Fix button lets Elements make all its proposed changes atonce. (All these Auto tools can be accessed from the Enhance menuin either mode.)

Users who would rather have more hands-on control will prefer towork in Standard Edit mode. They will be rewarded with some newtools, in a number of cases brought over from the latest versionsof Adobe's pro-level programs, and in a few cases improved over thehigher-priced (but older) equivalents.

Often the toughest task in photo editing is selecting just theright area of a photo; the new version of Elements gains a MagicSelection Brush; scribble on part of a picture and (with luck) thesoftware will be able to pick it out from the background. When itworks (it will take practice, and it won't work if there's littlecontrast between foreground and background), your object will beneatly selected - like magic.

Similarly, the new Magic Extractor tool lets you brush over yourdesired foreground and background, this time letting you preview(and clean up) the results before discarding your background. Veryslick - and even better than the comparable tool in big siblingPhotoshop.

Other improvements: The Skin Tone Adjustment tool alters colorbalance to produce more natural-looking skin tones. Red-Eye Fixworks better with less selection required. And (also migrating fromthe pro-level programs), the Straighten tool lets you draw ahorizontal or vertical line and align a horizon or other line inyour photo to it.

Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0 Update

One of my favourite features in early Elements versions has beenthe ability to easily create a panorama image, perhaps mergingmultiple landscape shots into a single 180-degree image. It's stillthere, but you'll have to look for it. The secret: Choose File/Newand then select 'Photomerge Panorama'. This will let you selectmultiple images to be merged into one.

...85% of Photoshop's power for 15% of itscost.

Despite its 2006 copyright date, Photoshop Elements, like othercurrent Adobe products for the Mac, is compiled for PowerPC Macsonly; new Intel Macs will run it using Rosetta, with resultingimpacts on performance. Despite this limitation, Photoshop Elements4.0 continues to provide a good balance between power andease-of-use; nonprofessionals who need to do more with their photosthan iPhoto allows should appreciate Adobe providing them with 85%of Photoshop's power for 15% of its cost.

Adobe Lightroom

Also of potential interest to Mac-using digital photographers:AdobeLightroom. Aiming at much the same audience of users workingwith camera RAW formats as Apple's Aperture. (Camera RAW is anoptional file format on many digital cameras, allowing users tosave images without any compression or processing by the camerahardware, offering users the ultimate raw material for hands-onphoto editing. Like every uncompressed format, RAW images are big;if you save in this format, expect to fill up your memory cardfast.)

Currently, Lightroom is available only as a prerelease publicbeta for free download. And surprise of surprises: the Lightroombeta is Mac-only (though Adobe is noting that the release productwill have both Mac and Windows versions). Adobe is hoping for userfeedback, noting that feedback may be reflected in the finalrelease.

The current Beta 2 is set to expire on June 30, 2006, and it'spossible that there will be a new version available before then.Registration with Adobe is required; after that would-be users canselect a 6.4 MB download of the core program or a 113 MB downloadof the program along with a set of RAW formatted images, projects,and metadata.

Although Lightroom is being presented as a tool for working withRAW image files, it can also be used with images saved in morecommon file formats such as JPEG. In fact, Adobe seems be aiming it(and eventually pricing it) somewhere in between its existingPhotoshop Elements and full-blown Photoshop products.

Where both Elements and Photoshop have common parentage andoverlapping toolsets, Lightroom was developed fresh from the groundup. (Some references within the program suggest it was initially aMacromedia project; Adobe purchased Macromedia last year.) Itpromises a complete photographer's toolkit, with everything fromworking with albums of thumbnails (a la iPhoto or Adobe Bridge) toediting, presentation, and printing tools.

I'm not going to give a complete review of Lightroom at thistime - especially since Beta 2 is set to time-out relatively soon.If you want to read more about Lightroom, the Adobe link listedabove includes links for several beginner video tutorials.Alternatively, while based on the earlier Beta 1, MichaelReichmann's First Look and Primer is the most comprehensive guide that I'veseen.

If you work with digital photos or are interested in the shapeof graphics software in the near future, it's worth downloading theLightroom Public Beta. And given the sometimes on-again/off-againnature of Adobe's relationship with Apple, it's nice to seesomething from Adobe that's (at least for now) just for Mac.
