thank you, great video as always! i particularly loved the trick with raising vibrance and saturation as a way to see how to adjust tint and temp, hadn't seen that before and always struggled to understand how to make decisions for subtle tint adjustments

Hi Christian,
I have learned so much from following your video tutorials. This is one I will watch again many times. Excellent tutorial, thank you so much for your generosity in sharing your knowledge and skills. Pete from Australia.

You are a master at editing with LR. I always learn new tricks by watching your edits. Well done!

Very interesting material you have. I'm learning so much from it!
As you use different types of camera profiles as a start point for editing, do you have any video explaining when choosing the right one? I get a bit confuse with this.

Christian, I thank you so much for your brilliant presentation! These basic effects and the10 masks are truly effective for the unexposed photo, in which the reeds and trestle, the mountains and the lake are getting much more beautiful and glowing in the hues of the splendid sunlight. I am grateful for your extraordinary sharing, I am inspired by you!
Unfortunately, I couldn’t get the Abode neutral option, even though I have tried to do so.
