My latest article for CreativePro.com looks at a set of underrated editing tools in Lightroom Classic and Lightroom CC: the gradient tools.
Most of the editing tools in Lightroom CC and Lightroom Classic CC apply to an entire image, not selective portions of it. Sometimes, though, you want more control, such as adding drama to a flat sky or brightening specific areas that are in shadow. Sure, you could toss the image to Photoshop for those edits, but Lightroom’s gradient and brush tools can handle them. Here’s how.
Read the article here: The Power of the Gradient Tools in Lightroom.
And don’t forget, I cover these tools and more in my book Take Control of Lightroom CC is a 133-page ebook that covers everything you need to know about the new application (for Mac or Windows), and also includes a chapter on how to make Lightroom CC and Lightroom Classic CC work together.
