    Learn Lightroom  is a six week 2 1/2 hours per week of hands on classroom instruction.  You will actually go through the entire process and develop a digital workflow on your computer with your images (if you don’t have images you should take the Learn Digital Photography Class).

  • You will learn to achieve fantastic tone and color using simple sliders, and using  the new greatly improved sharpening and noise reduction, you will think you have a new camera.  The new lens profiles and their manual controls allow for correcting lens distortions or creating dramatic effects.  Dodging and burning are simple tasks in lightroom using the adjustment brush.  All of this in a totally non destructive work environment designed to speed you through the  process.
