Software Workflow:
Open RAW in Lightroom 4. Delete, Pick, Rename
Export picks to DXO Optics Pro to convert RAWs with superior noise, sharpness, and distortion correction
Bring DNGs back to Lightroom for global corrections
Export to NIK software for local corrections and B+W conversion
Back to Lightroom for printing
