This is the first of many videos I've watched on the tone curve that I understood. Clear and concise. Excellent work! Please, keep them coming. You've got a new subscriber.

A great explanation. Thank you. I am really enjoying this series.

I love this series that you are doing. Any chance of an updated video on using dual monitors? I have gone back a few times to reference the one you did about nine years ago. Thanks.

[GeoffGrant]

Thanks. I’ll have to try it. Kind of complex.

Another excellent video! Thank you Julieanne.
This may not be a question you can answer but I'm curious why Adobe has put so much time into enhancing LR. As I've mentioned here before, as an old time Photoshop user, I prefer Photoshop for editing tone curves and I use its masks for dodging/burning, selective areas for color enhancements, etc., yet in recent months, LR has picked up several features that I would like to see in Photoshop (e.g. very powerful masking). What is Adobe's philosophy going forward? The two programs are currently offered in one subscription so I can freely use some features in both (via ACR) but I wonder if that situation might change in he future?

Julianne, love your tutorials. I have a lightroom question but don't know where I can ask you for advice. I don't see anywhere here or your website. Thanks.

I love these. I did get a little lost at the 6:48 mark where you said if I want to add to my shadows, I would click the channel and drag down toward . I think I followed that was where the shadows' colors were, but the "down to " got me. Down? Yellow? Sorry for the probably and possibly silly question.

Very cool. Now dump the monthly subscription fees and I might use it

It would be really nice if Adobe would get the developers together that work the Basic Panel and the Developers that work the tone curve and have them use the same language for the tonal rangers: Basic panel: Blacks / Shadows / Highlights / Whites. Tone curve: Shadows / Darks / Lights / Highlights. And those are in the same order from darkest to brightest. Such a glaring UI screw up.
