Lightroom + bridge workflow

Question

I tend to keep all my photos in lightroom, which is usually my starting point. So, I also keep there the photos I have edited in photoshop FROM lightroom.

On occasion though, I start working directly in photoshop (say, creating a composition which blends images from the internet, parts of my photo(s) etc.

At that point I'm never sure whether I should import the final image into LR, or save it somewhere else and use Bridge to categorise/manage/etc.

Do you have any suggestions? how do you use LR and Bridge together?

Answer 1

I always just use LR and let it keep track. Stacks work nicely if it is primarily based on one image, though if you have combined multiple, perhaps either using keywords or putting it in some collection of edited works would fit well.
