EDITING WITH LIGHTROOM: For Underwater Photographers
COMING SOON!
Learn how to edit your photos with Adobe Lightroom.
You already know the feeling: you surface from a dive certain you got the shot, only to open the file later and find it flat, blue-washed, or nothing like what your eyes saw underwater. That gap between what you captured and what you meant to capture isn't a talent problem, it's an editing problem, and it's the one thing neither of my other two guides teaches.
This is the book that closes that gap. A dedicated, step-by-step guide to editing underwater and wildlife images in Lightroom, with Photoshop techniques woven in for the jobs Lightroom can't finish on its own, backscatter removal, spot healing, and the small fixes that turn a good file into a finished image. Built for the same self-taught, real-conditions approach as the rest of the Ocean Photography series.
Who it's for
Anyone who already owns a camera and has images to edit, whether that's your first dive trip or your five hundredth. If you've worked through either Ocean Photography guide and are ready for the next step, or you already shoot but have always edited on instinct rather than a real process, this book picks up exactly where your camera skills leave off.
What to expect
- A full Lightroom workflow built specifically for underwater and wildlife files, from import and culling through to a finished edit
- Colour correction for the blue and green casts unique to underwater images, and how to recover what the water took out
- Backscatter and spot removal, including where Photoshop does a better job than Lightroom and how to move between the two
- Building a consistent, recognisable editing style across a whole gallery or portfolio, not just one-off fixes
- Desktop, mobile, and tablet workflows so you can edit wherever you shoot
Full contents, pricing, and release date to be announced. This teaser is a placeholder for your coming-soon page and should be updated once the book's structure is locked in.
