Finally I decided to take a plunge and upgrade to Lightroom 2.0. So far it works for me. I do not experience the symptoms other users are describing. Perhaps LR gremlins will rise their ugly heads and bite me – who knows. The real icing on the cake as far as I am concerned, are the new export plugins by Jeffrey Friedl. If you are using LR and on-line photo galleries like Flickr, Zenfolio, SmugMug, Picassa or Facebook, these plugins are a must. In addition to simplifying the process of uploading photos to the hosting service, they enable you to construct complex titles and captions for your uploaded photos containing any combination of the EXIF or LR metadata. Just see below.
Vertigo Originally uploaded by yOOrek
Wallhausen, Germany, June 2008
Vertigo is the sensation of spinning or swaying while the body is actually stationary with respect to the surroundings.
There are two types of vertigo: subjective and objective. There is a subjective vertigo when a person has a false sensation of movement. In the case of objective vertigo, the surroundings appear to move past a person’s field of vision.
The effects of vertigo may be slight. It can cause nausea and vomiting and, in severe cases, it may give rise to difficulties with standing and walking.
