Lightroom Quick Tips - Episode 10: Targeted Adjustments

This is the tenth episode of Lightroom Quick Tips where I give a single, quick Lightroom tip.

One of the most overlooked yet powerful tools in Lightroom are targeted adjustments. You can use them in a variety of ways but in this video, I demonstrate how you can use them to increase the saturation of the background of a scene yet leave the skin tones relatively untouched. Conversely I show how you can fix the skin tones on the people in those shots that include a heavily processed background.
