Correcting color

- When I correct color I generally tend to do it second.…Now, if the white balance for the image is totally off,…fix that first.…Note at the top you do have the ability…to tweak the white balance.…You could see how it was shot,…or let Lightroom guess with Auto.…Choose presets such as Daylight, or Cloudy,…or anything else that makes sense.…I tend to not use Flash obviously,…but Tungsten is pretty common for nighttime shooting.…In this case though I'm happy with how it was shot.…

If the white balance was really off,…you might have to fix that before…you made the exposure adjustments.…Once that's done, I recommend you scroll down…to the bottom area here and take advantage…of the Presence controls.…Vibrance is gonna selectively add saturation.…You could of course boost the overall saturation,…but you'll note that in this case the rocks…are really becoming solarized.…So I'm gonna pull that back down,…and get a more natural looking rock.…
