Please, I beg you, let me change your life. Notwithstanding the flaws in your raw processing, she is a very shiny person, isn't she? After you've fixed the raw processing, I suggest you try this for the shiny bright areas. And this for the hot shadow areas.

For the ACR screenshot, can you show me the Detail panel so I can see your noise removal settings?

Here's the file

Oh Leah, I'm so sorry, I missed your response. I'm glad you like it. Essentially, I did it using this method.

It's certainly in the ballpark. How's the print comparison?

I'm so sorry, this is out of my league. In what way isn't it working? Is it not launching at all?

Yep, choose Laptop. You are dreaming. Put it down to 100 where it's supposed to be.

Have you checked for upgrades to the Spyder software also?

This is completely baloney, forget it. May I see some 100% crops of the issue?

I don't have any "tricks" for you, sorry. Just very very patient cloning. Allow at least an hour.

Oh, they are SO CUTE!!!!! This is a tricky situation, all right. This is the best I can offer:

Can you show me some of the links they've shown you?

Of course.

5760x3840 is twenty-two megapixels. That's plenty. The PPI value is meaningless. However, it might indicate that your files are jpegs? If so, that would be very bad.

Yes, of course Lightroom is colour-managed.

Oh, how annoying! Do you only have one screen attached to your computer?

Correct.

Yes, it's new. Only worry about the top readings, ignore the other two.

No, you're in the right place. Go to "Home" then scroll down to the Classes section.

Do not post until you have read the new content.

The skin is not really the problem here. We need to talk about this in the Raw Class please.

Not next time. This time. Start over. With a big slap upside your own head for good measure. For heaven's sake don't let this happen again - do THIS.
