I have been using Lr for about 6 months, I keyworded most of the photos, still have more to do. On some photos I used multiple keywords, and was wondering if I could search for more than one at a time. For example, I am looking for a bird in winter in a tree in the snow, the keywords I have are; bird, winter, snow and tree, can  I search for photos that have all four keywords?

You can do this using the library filter bar. Open the text filter (Ctrl+F) and make sure the rule is set to 'Contains All'.

In the Filter Bar, select "bird" as the keyword in column 1 of the Filter Bar, select "winter" as the keyword in Column 2 of the Filter Bar, and so on.

This was helpful... In the new versions of Lightroom I am not seeing the ability to add columns? The little drop down menu icon is not something I am seeing. How do you Add Column?
