    Looking for feedback on this picture of a clown's face. Did a bit of quick processing on the RAW image in Lightroom. Thanks!

    I like the processing, it certainly makes the picture a lot more striking.

    One suggestion though: I think the pic might be better with a very tight crop around his face, I find the empty space a bit distracting.

    I like that a lot, the final version is very striking when compared to the original! Was there much done in lightroom? I've only just got lightroom but am more used to using photoshop....

    I'm new to Lightroom too. I didn't start off with anything in mind just maybe darken the tones a little. I messed around with all the different setting until I got the finished result. I didn't even think about cropping it, that's the one thing I always forget to do with a photo even though it's one of the most important things to do to give the photo that edge! :pac:
