I'm going to instead come down here to Shadows. To do so, I'm not going to bring up Exposure because that would work on the entire picture. And I want to see more detail in the darkest area. In this case, the darkest part of the picture is where a problem is. So for people, maybe moving Clarity to the left. And softening peoples' faces aren't a bad thing. You could decrease it and that would soften the image. So landscapes and things, clarity can be great, but on close-ups of people, Is when you have people in your photographs and you have close-ups of their faces because bringing out clarity in someone's face is going to make all the little creasesĪnd wrinkles within their face become much more pronounced, and that's going to make them look older. Be careful with that slider though because sometimes you don't want the detail And if you increase Clarity, it's going to makeĪll the detail pop out in your photograph. That's here in these rocks, or more of the texture in this green covered area, there's a slider available called Clarity. If you ever want more detail to come out in your image, you want to see more of the texture But let's start exploring some of the other sliders So I'll bring it up.īring out as much Shadow detail as I like. In this case, I think the darkest area of the image When it comes to bright or dark images, and then you're just going to fine tune Most of the time you might start with Auto If I hit Reset to show you before, choose Undo to show you after, I think it's improved. But in this case I think we've made a good change. Something like highlights, I'll re-evaluate the image and decide to back upįrom one of the other adjustments I've made. Highlights isolates the brightest parts of our picture so I could bring that down to try to darken the highlights back down. And that's where I'll look at the other sliders and notice that we have the Highlights slider. In doing so, I notice that the absolute brightest areas, the white areas at the base of this temple, are getting to be too bright. Until the majority of the picture starts to look OK. And so if it's ever in the majority of the image, then I usually adjust the Exposure slider because Exposure works on the entire picture. In this case, I notice the majority of the picture is dark. So when I'm in the Develop module, I can just use the arrow keys in my keyboard. I can either return to the Library module up here to look at all the images and choose between them or when I was in the Develop module, it still knows that all these other images exist. So now let's switch to a different photograph. But you can see we've madeĪ dramatic difference in this image. Then I could always go to the Edit menuĪnd choose Undo or use the keyboard shortcut of Command Z on a Mac,Ĭontrol Z in Windows, to get us back to where we are. I'll press that, and let's see what we started with. If you want to get back to the original pictureįor any reason, in the lower right is a reset button. So I'm going to take the highlight sliderĪnd move it to the left and see if I can get a little bit more detail If they're going to control brightness, moving them to the right will brightenĪnd moving them to the left will darken. So out of those three sliders we just talked about, I'm going use the Highlight slider. The top portion of the image that I don't like and that's one of the brightest areas. So if I look at this particular image, after hitting the Auto button, it's mainly In the bright areas of your picture and Shadows will work on the dark. Exposure will adjust the entire picture, making the entire picture brighter or darker. There are three primary slidersįor controlling how bright the image is. And over time as we work with more images, you'll get more and more comfortable The end result by moving the various sliders that are found It doesn't know which areas are importantĪnd which areas are not. And what it did when I clicked Auto is it moved these various adjustment sliders that are found on the right side of my screen to try to figure out what it thought And in this case, it's a dramatic difference. And I could simply click thatĪnd see if it's able to help the image. On the right side of my screen when I'm in the Develop module. And now if I look at the image as a whole, well it's relatively obvious what's wrong with it. If I want to make my image take up more space, I'm going to collapse it down by clicking on the little triangle Happens on the right side of your screen. In the Develop module, most of the action I'm going to go to the top of my screen and switch from the Library module which is where we organize our images to the Develop module Here I'm in a Library where I'm going to switchīetween my images and here's one that doesn't look very goodĪt least in the small version here, the little thumbnail. On a fancy camera or just on your mobile phone, Lightroom can adjust them all.
