Step 1: Crop
Note:
As with all aspects
of Lightroom, crops
are completely
non-destructive and can
be undone or modii ed
simply by reselecting the
Crop (C) tool
1. Select the Crop Overlay (R) from Lightroom's tool bar beneath the
image
2. Simply draw, drag or pull corner points to set crop guidelines.
3. To straighten a skewed image, select the Straighten tool
(Shift+Command) and dei ne a start and end point on a level axis.
4. Now double-click upon the image to apply the crop.
Step 2: White Balance: LR_WhiteBalanceTool
1. Select the White Balance tool (I). The White Balance Tool is used to
approximate the true color temperature of your image. To do so, click
on a tone likely to be a true neutral.
2 . If your image needs further adjustment, either the Temperature slider
or White Balance drop-downs are good places to start.
Step 3: Tone/Basic
1. By clicking on Lightroom's histogram arrows, we remind the application
to show us regions of the highlights or shadows that will be clipped so
that we can be certain to preserve all of our image's details. To do so,
click each arrow icon at the far left and right of the histogram.
2. Move the Exposure slider until red overlays (clipped highlights) begin
to appear.
3. Now select the new Recovery slider, and move it to the right until the
red portions disappear.
