Looks like the entire library is now stored in the cloud?
 
Depends Raymond, I can see most professionals sticking with Lightroom Classic which works the same as Lightroom does now. CC I believe (I haven't used it yet) has been redesigned to be more cloud-centric.

Have a read of the dp review news article.

From the article here are some of the differences between CC and Classic.

  • Color labels are gone in Lightroom CC.

  • Due to a revamp of the keyword architecture, keywords do not sync between Lightroom Classic CC and Lightroom CC via Creative Cloud.

  • Keywords do ride along when migrating a Lightroom Classic CC catalog into Lightroom CC, but any hierarchical keywords are simplified. Lightroom CC does away with hierarchies, so if you have a photo tagged with a nested group such as, “outdoors > forest > Oregon,” those are added as three separate keywords: “outdoors, forest, Oregon.”

  • Migrating a catalog turns off Creative Cloud sync in Lightroom CC 2015/Lightroom 6. You need to upgrade to Lightroom Classic CC to continue syncing.

  • Lightroom CC cannot print.

  • Currently, the only sharing options from within Lightroom CC are to export to disk or share to Facebook.

  • Lightroom CC has no Web or Book modules.

  • Similarly, there’s no Map module, although location data does appear in the Info panel when it’s available. However, there’s currently no ability to add location info to photos that don’t already have it, or copy and paste locations between images.

  • There is no HDR or Panorama merge features in Lightroom CC. These are features Adobe has said are on the table to add in an upcoming release.

  • Lightroom CC does not offer tethered capture.

  • Lightroom CC has just one library, tied to your Adobe ID; the notion of working with separate catalogs is being left behind.

  • Lightroom CC uses Adobe Sensei search technology to identify elements of photos based on visual content, and tags the images behind the scenes (the keywords aren’t user-accessible). This feature is good for people who don’t bother to keyword their photos in the first place, because they can perform searches for items like “coffee” and get results without any prior work. However, Sensei search requires an active Internet connection; the search happens on the server, not locally.
  • Oddly, Lightroom CC doesn’t know what to do if you’re shooting Raw+JPEG mode on your camera. It sees both files separately, with no way to discern which is which in the Review for Import screen aside from mousing over each thumbnail and waiting for a tooltip to appear.

Classic CC here, feels nice and snappy!

The UI on the new CC is nice, but until they have the same features as Classic I cannot use it. I use tone curves and split toning a fair amount.
