Basic Lightroom 4 and Image Editing – Mel Carll, instructor  $79

Adobe Lightroom 4 was just released this month, and is a program that is a dream for digital photographers.  This workshop will cover 4 of the 7 modules of Lightroom, with the main focus on the Library and Develop modules.  Mel will cover importing and managing your files, photo editing and color correcting, using and creating presets, synchronizing between images, exporting and finishing in Photoshop, creating a slideshow and printing. We will also send some time looking at the new features of Lightroom 4. Then we will get into actually editing images during the last hour of the workshop.  Please bring 1 image, and Mel will import that image into Lightroom.  Then Mel will go though the editing process to get a final image ready for printing.  You may bring a computer, but it is not required.
