Can I ask another question. When I work in Lumanance and Color to help grain, it is what happens in Portraiture?

Haha. I just saw your request for me to "Change My Life". After we adopted 3 older age children that did not speak our language and now all teenagers, I say, "I need a new life" all the time. But in the world of Photography I may take you up on this and get rid of LR. I will certainly give it a try. Did I totally tick you off when I told you I hit "Auto" in ACR? It was kinda scary to reveal this fact.

I pulled this straight into ACR and hit Auto. Did this fix the white balance and noise problems? I do see a difference when I hit preview arrow.

This is what I did in LR I adjusted the Luminance and color a little then white balance.

No Prob. Is it ok if I do the pre editing you mention in LR instead of ARC? My work flow is doing the pre edit in LR then move into PS. If so, do I do this then drag the file over to this place to upload?

Yes. But I don't know how to post a raw pic. I changed it to JPEG and saved on my desktop to pass it onto you.

Hi Damien, I realize I need to retake the class and I will asap. So, please if you can, show me how to mask off the red in his sunburn face with saturation layer mask. Thanks so much. Sharon Miles
