Getting a Better View

Getting a Better View in the Develop Module (LR)

Lightroom’s Develop Module provides most photographers all the tools they need to enhance their photos. Paying attention to the details and subtle changes can help you create some remarkable images. To view your images in the Develop module, here a few tips to help you see your changes.

Image Zoom – just hit the Z key to zoom in on your photo. Hit the Z key again to return to full size.

Second Screen View – Have you ever wanted to be able to see your full-size image in real time as you are making changes in a view that has been zoomed. If you have a large enough monitor, try this method. Click on the little #2 button on the lower left of the Develop Module view. A second window will pop up with a full-size view of your photo. You can move and resize the second window as you see fit. Your changes will be displayed in the second window as you make local changes in the zoomed in view of the Develop Module. Just close the second window when you are done.

Before and After Views – Comparing your Develop Module changes with your original out of the camera image is a good way to see that your post processing reflects your desired intent. It’s easy to see different views that compare Before and After Views. Here are a few shortcut key strokes to try!

\ Key – Toggles the Develop Module View to before and after

Y Key – Displays a view of the before and after images side by side. Hit the Y key again to return to the normal view.

Shift + Y Keys – Displays a split-screen side by side before and after view. Hit Y to return to normal view.

Alt + Y Keys – Displays a view with before and after images top and bottom. Hit the Alt + Y Keys again to return to normal view.

Adobe Camera Raw in Photoshop has similar tools and function as Lightroom. You can use many Lightroom features and tips in Camera Raw!

Good Friday

Happy Good Friday This is the day that we remember what Jesus did for us --- enduring beating, mocking, and being crucified. I imagine his disciples did not consider it to be a “good” Friday at the time. But what makes it GOOD is what happened on Sunday --- when Jesus did the impossible and rose from the dead. Knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot. ~ 1 Peter 1:18-19 ESV One of the best ways of celebrating Jesus and His Resurrection…is through family traditions. Family traditions can be as simple as attending ️ church and having lunch or brunch together. Jesus was a story-teller. I believe he knew the power of a story to capture hearts and bring joy while effectively delivering a specific message. He often used parables to teach. Do you have a favorite Bible Story or family tradition? A G

Why God Wants to Bless You!

Why God Wants to Bless You! “For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will have an abundance. But from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away” (Matthew 25:29, ESV). Do you know that God wants to bless you? He wants you to have abundance, lacking no good thing. But He doesn’t want that for you and me so we can merely enjoy our lives. He wants us to steward our resources so we can be better able to reach out to others and bless them in His name. Jesus said in Matthew 5:16 (ESV), “…let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.” The goal is fruitfulness. The goal is God’s Kingdom. The goal is for God’s blessing to flow through us so we might be a blessing to others, to the glory of His name!
