William: Thank you very much for joining us on the Photo Flunky Show, episode sixty-five.

Today we are going to be talking about your Lightroom editing flow.  How do you select your best photos, how do you import them to Lightroom and make them work? What really works best for you?

Thank you so much. My name is William Beem.

Lee: Hi, my name is Lee Beem.

William: And of course, welcome to the Photo Flunky Show.  You’re going to find show notes are going to be available for this episode at williambeem.com/episode65.  There is a transcript of the show there for free and, of course, you can find links to subscribe there.  Or you can check out all of our episodes in the past at our dedicated player at photoflunky.com

You can download it at williambeem.com/freebook  or if you’re on the run and you’ve got your mobile phone with you, not a problem. Go ahead and send a text message: CPBOOK to 33444.  You’ll get a response and it will ask you for your email address. You just type in the email address where you want the book sent to you and it will send the PDF off once you send that in.  So that is text: CPBOOK to 33444.
