In some situations, this slider can bring out the details in your landscape photos. Or it could be that the haze in your image adds to the ambiance. Not every landscape photo needs you to use the dehaze slider.įor example in winter generally the air will be crisper and you will have less haze. Increasing the slider will begin to make your photo look darker with more detail showing. It helps to remove some of the haze in your photo. This slider was a great addition to Lightroom and produces great results in landscape photos. © Kav Dadfar A little more subtle, bringing out the oranges, blues and greens. The colours look fake and the image is too colourful. There is too much saturation in this photo. But be careful of overdoing it as too much vibrancy or saturation will make the image look fake. Move the sliders along to bring out the color in the landscape. Generally, if you take photos in RAW format you will find the colors dulled down. Increasing these two sliders adds more color to your image.
Drag the clarity slider to the right until you get a natural, sharp-looking image with good contrast. Reducing the clarity has the opposite effect of making your photo seem less sharp. If raised, it can bring out textures in the photo and also make it seem sharper all over. The clarity slider works by adding or removing contrast to edges found in your image. These are the steps that I go through on my Lightroom landscape edits. The order that you do these Lightroom edits will come down to your own workflow. The next part of your Lightroom landscape editing process is where you can transform your images and make them look stunning. © Kav Dadfar Make Your Image Pop Out in the Presence Panel You can then still make any tweaks to the white balance using the sliders. The white balance will change accordingly. Click on it and then select somewhere on your image where there is a neutral color like grey. In the same menu, there is also an “Auto” option.Īnother option is to use the “White Balance Selector” tool which looks like an eyedropper. If you click on the small arrows named “As shot” you will get a drop-down menu of the different custom settings you get in your camera. Move the sliders along to get an image that feels natural to you. Or if you are using RAW files you can adjust the temperature in Lightroom.Īt the very top of the right-hand panel (below the histogram), you will see a couple of sliders titled “Temp” and “Tint”. You can either adjust your balance at the time of taking the photo. Not correcting the white balance makes landscape photos look unnatural and dull. So in other words white balance is the temperature of the photo. What often shows up on a photo taken in bright sunshine is a blue tint. Camera sensors cannot make that adjustment.
When we look at a scene during midday, for example, our eyes automatically adjust so that we see a clear picture with no tint. You would then have to manually adjust the sliders below the boxed named “Distortion” and “Vignetting” to correct the image.Īnother good tool in the lens correction panel is the “Remove Chromatic Aberration”. Some older lenses or specialist lenses might not be in the drop-down menu. Once these are in the boxes will see a slight change made to the photo. If you don’t see your lens already populated in the box, click the arrow on the boxes and select the relevant ones from the drop-down menu. Once you do this, you should see the drop-down menus below it, fill with the details of your lens manufacturer, model, and profile. But there is an easy fix in Lightroom that will correct this in the vast majority of cases.įirst tick “Enable Profile Corrections”. This is where straight lines begin to look a bit curved. You may not be aware but whenever you take a photograph with any lens, there is some distortion and errors that occur.įor example, this might be chromatic aberrations, vignetting or slight warping of an image. It is located near the bottom of the right-hand panel. Lens CorrectionsĪ good starting point is the lens correction function. Click the tab on the top right to get started.
