As you may know, I tend to not do a lot of post-work. I think often, editing in Photoshop or Lightroom is an excuse for not knowing photography very well.

But some adjustments are useful. And Lightroom can be super-fast with these. Let me show you one: “HSL”.

The wall in my dining room is this colour:

But the HSL adjustment in Lightroom, with the dropper selector, allows me to make it darker (“Luminance”):

Or to change its colour (“Hue”):

Or to change its saturation:

And that one I do a lot when using that wall as my background!

A quick, simple, one second adjustment. Lightroom rocks.
