The company used an API and scraped 300 posts from Reddit's Landscape Photography subreddit (r/LandscapePhotography) containing location tags or descriptions related to the United Kingdom (UK). Hundreds of photos shared with the 128000-plus-member community over the past year by amateur and professional photographers were examined. The upvote, the ultimate signal to determine the value or worthiness of a post, was considered when Adobe reached out to Reddit users and asked for permission to feature their images in its study.

Devon is England's top spot with 34 photos getting 1850 upvotes. Gwynedd is the most admired location in Wales and 97% of its posts referenced Mount Snowdon or Snowdonia National Park. More elusive spots were also identified using what Adobe calls a "Hidden Gem score."

Logitech's MX Creative Console editing panel now supports DaVinci Resolve and Lightroom
Engadget has been testing and reviewing consumer tech since 2004. Our stories may include affiliate links; if you buy something through a link, we may earn a commission. Read more about how we evaluate products. I liked Logitech's MX Creative Console when I tested it last year, but one of biggest issues was a lack of support for specific content creation and other apps. The company has rectified that with a major update now available on the company's Logi Marketplace. It expands the console's compatibility to several key apps including DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Lightroom and Figma. As a reminder, the MX Creative Console is a control panel that connects to your Mac or PC and is designed to speed up creative chores for apps like Adobe Premiere and Photoshop. It's more compact than rival consoles and features a modern design and a pair of slick control dials, along with dynamic display keys that change depending on the app and page you're looking at. A key new addition is support for Adobe's Lightroom, rather than just Lightroom Classic as before. It lets you use the dial controller on the MX Creative Console to straighten images or adjust brightness, contrast and clarity. The buttons can also be set up to do things like rate and flag images for quicker processing. Logitech also worked with Blackmagic Design to get the console working with DaVinci Resolve, a popular editing and effects app that's an alternative to Adobe Premiere Pro. You can now use the console to navigate the timeline, cut, trim and retime clips and navigate Fusion's effects nodes efficiently. It added similar functionality for Apple's Final Cut Pro, while also letting you do precise color grading via the app's Color Wheels. For the interface design tool Figma, the MX Creative Console lets you quickly access essential tools and actions, manage assets, text alignments, spacing and layout adjustments and adjust text size, weight and height with the dial. Logitech got into creative control surfaces in a big way when it purchased Steam Deck rival Loupedeck in 2023. The $200 MX Creative Console arrived a year later, and though it took Adobe nearly seven months to release a major update, support for the new apps makes the console far more versatile. "Adding these highly requested plugins will unlock the MX Creative Console's potential for a broader range of creative professionals,' noted Logitech GM Anatoliy Polyanker.
