Should I use Lightroom or Photoshop?

Maybe I should answer this question before. Well, better late then never.
Again, this is the most asked question. If only if I charge a dime for everytime someone comes up to me and asked this question I would be quite rich by now.

So once and for all, I am going to blog my opinion on this question.

Here goes:

To give you a better understanding, I am going to refer to your photos as a patient visiting a doctor. A patient with common illnesses such as cough, flu, rashes should be advise to visit a GP doctor. While if there is any other major illnesses the GP Doctor will refer you to a specialist doctor. Of course, you could go straight to the specialist doctor but the costs, time taken tends to be higher and longer.

So Lightroom is like a GP. You use it for photos management and minor editing. When you are done with identifying the photos that requires more major editing to be done, you export those to Photoshop i.e. the Specialist doctor.

As simple as that.
