    Do you use presets to edit your photos?

    Since the majority of photo edit applications...Lightroom, Capture One, etc have the ability to use presets for a once click edit, do you use them? This is more for people who shoot RAW, but it can be applied to those who also use presets on jpegs as well. I am curious how the response will...

    I don't like the way these look.

    I know this isn't the best photo I've taken and I'm not looking for a serious critique because its overall, a snapshot. I was about the head out the door for something and I really liked the way my cat, Luke, was laying in front of the door with his paws out front and the expression he had. So...

    Lightroom exporting

    In Lightroom, when you are finished editing photos, do you export a copy as TIFF to lock the edits in place, so to speak? You'd obviously need to do this if you wanted to take the edited photo out of Lightroom, but I just mean generally when you're working with photos is this a common practice?

    Lightroom partnered with Skynet

    hi everyone, in Lightroom, when you use the graduated filter, you can use that image overlay color that allows you to see where the effect is applied. Now, I could go to 'color' and add a color, then take it out. But I've heard there's another option to go back and forth to see with/without...

    Issue with Exporting High Res Files
