    I've seen you adjust the exposure using a keyboard shortcut WITHOUT clicking "exposure" first. How'd you do that? Are you using +/- keyboard shortcuts?

    Hi!

    thank you for an amazing tutorial.

    I wasn't able to find where you can purchase the brushes you have installed in your lightroom through your website. Do you have a link?

    thanks again

    One of the clearest workflow explanations I have seen which has significantly increased my understanding of how LR works.. Is there a tutorial on using LR's new color grading wheels?

    How to remove a green cast from the subject caused by reflection off foliage without adjusting the background? I just uninstalled ON1, and I'm planning on using Lr and Ps.

    You know, I ask myself what the Tint tool is for. I feel like it takes away a little bit of reflections on the skin. Is that what it's for?
