Getting Colourful
You’d be surprised just how often a great
photo is edited using simple but very
effective techniques. These techniques often
centre around the colour options within
Lightroom and through the tutorials in this
book you can learn to apply these fine
alterations to great effect.
Not all Lightroom effects have to be dramatic. The great strength of the program
is that it can be used to make some subtle improvements to images, making great
shots even better. The difference between these two images may appear fairly subtle
at first glance but the exposure, saturation and colour balance of the main image has
been carefully tweaked using the Basic panel, found in the top right sidebar of the
Develop module. Sometimes, the key to Lightroom is subtlety.
