Originally posted by Storm Chaser Sorry presets for Light Room, thought I would give them a try? I'am looking for landscape presets, the reason was I came across some images the were processed with" Macphun intensify enhance landscape filter" they looked really good with smooth even tones, but is for apple products. I may not use them but would like to compare the images.
OK... Can I ask, do you have a copy of Martin Evening's "The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom CC / Lightroom 6 Book" (or earlier version)? The reason I ask is this... Presets are all well and good, but they depend largely on the image you start off with. Presets are only snapshots of the various slider settings, and they will always be relative to the initial image. As a result, sometimes they'll work well, other times, not so well - and still other times, they just won't help at all. But, if you understand exactly how the various controls in Lightroom's "Develop" module work (and that is explained in just a few easy chapters of the book I mentioned; you can get through it in an "evening" or two, no pun intended), you'll have complete control over your images. Now, at that stage, it may be worth trying out some free or low-cost presets and looking at the settings... With your understanding of how each one works, you'll immediately recognise how a specific look is achieved, and you can fine-tune the settings to get the best from each specific image. I bought Lightroom 6 in April last year, and didn't get the book until quite a bit later. I'm now confident in producing pretty much any look I want to. It's very liberating, and surprisingly easy. Hope this helps.
