I just downloaded Light Zone 3.4 for my Linux (Ubuntu).

First impression -> Best of Breed.

"Styles" are really beautifull.

Dear Jay,

I don't have any experience with Nikon software, I don't know if you should scrap it.

LightZone comes with a 30 days free trial, please download it and see for your self if it suits your needs better. With the download you get a 100 pages instruction manual with plenty of tutorials.

Best regards,

- Fabio

Hi Tim,

thanks for your comments, variable thikness feathering would be a cool idea but it might complicate the UI quite a bit with too mant control points. I have to find an easy way to present that to the user...

Meanwhile you can try using several overlapping regions with different feathering to achieve what you want.

I just posted on the lightzone website but I thought I'd repeat the idea here.. I'd love to see the 'region's have variable width feather thickness.. .e.g. I double click on a region node and can control the thickness near that node independently from the other nodes.. No other program will let you acheive this sort of 'graduated feather' effect.. Do you think this would be a difficiult thing to add?

Hi Fabio, thanks for your blog! Just purchased a license of LightZone, great and innovative software...and I have a little question :)
Is there a way to select the regions with a "magic wand tool" as in Photoshop? If not, is it in your future plans?
Thanks!

Hi Fabio

I enjoyed your article and maybe I can say this:

INTUITION = LightZone

It is a wonderful product and one which others will eye with envy!!

By the way, I did manage to get the serial number in .....; you are right, it WAS an Internet connection problem.

Lots of good luck

Hi Andy,

yes, that is the same Nick Hlobeczy.

Nick and I share some of the same interests in the forces that move us and allow us to participate to a creative process.

I like very much Nick's approach to photography and whenever I have a an opportunity to spend some time with him I try to listen to what he has to say.

Hey Fabio,

I just looked at your B&W portraits (following thge link on the tutorial page), and saw what looked like Nicholas Hlobeczy in a few of them. Am I right? Interesting coincidence...though I do not know him, I have recently read his remarkable book, "A Presence Behind the Lens" (my review is up on Amazon:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1890772518/ref=cm_pdp_review_teaser_product/103-9122923-6338223?n=283155

Sorry if my memory is horrible, and the image is of someone else; but if it *is* Mr. Hlobeczy, I'd be interested in learning how you guys met and what you think of his art?
