I'm still an amateur that have been trying to learn using post-processing with Lightroom. Mostly my processing involves:
- Adjust highlight, shadow, and overall image brightness
- Crop if needed
- Sharpen if needed
- Adjust contrast
- Adjust WB if needed
- Apply lens correction
(of if applicable, start with a preset to save time, and try to adjust the above)
- Color: now comes the question, I like vivid color, so I tend to push saturation a bit. The images look better at first, most of the time, but sometimes I'm wondering whether I should do that or stay with true to life color that my lenses captured. Do you usually edit color when you do processing?
And, for example, I really like this kind of color look in this photographer's page
