Greetings!

Recently I purchased "Lightroom" and have been watching a few tutorials on how to use the software. Damn! It's much more complex than I expected it to be, yet I will persist with the tutorials until I become reasonably competent with it.

Can anyone recommend some excellent tutorials for "Lightroom"? All suggestions will be appreciated.

My friend recently sent me this photo, and I would like to enhance it so it looks proper. I tried using "Lightroom", but at this point I just cannot figure it out.

Would anyone kindly enhance it and then post it back here? I would greatly appreciate it. :)

Thank you very much

For no cost the tutorial videos from Julieanne Kost on the Adobe website are very good. Google Julieanne Kost Adobe to access her blog.

You need to upload the original so we have more to work with for enhancements.
When you say "enhance" what do you mean?? Fix color or just remove wild hair across her mouth??

If you reply and attach and store the image file, we can both post the edit and the positions of the LR sliders so you can see what was done. The LR editors can also post a DNG export so you can re-import those edits into your LR catalog and see / further adjust those ideas. Depends on you attaching the file.

OK, here's an attempt at fixing a few of the problem areas. It would have been better (easier) if you had checked the "Store Original" box but I think this turned out pretty good.

Read the online help manual put on the Adobe website. This should be your first resource.

Kudos
