pamg Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 I am having a terrible time keeping a good resolution and size on my backlight images. I shoot backlighting often. And I am always struggling with keeping a good resolution and size of the image after post processing. I edit some in lightroom, pop it over to photoshop then get rid of anything I don't want and fix colors or any other issues. Save it back in Lightroom where I export the images together. Then I open my saved image and its grainy, pixelated, and like 1mb. ? I shoot in RAW so this baffels me. I only crop once in lightroom right before exporting. Here is the edited image. Is it the backlighting itself causing this or something I'm doing in post processing. If I shoot a backlight image that I am able to edit only in lightroom (which is very rare) The Image is way better, more pixels and a better size for my clients. Please Help. Thank you.

Damien Symonds Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Because my initial suspicion would be that you don't have your External Editing settings correct: https://www.damiensymonds.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/LR-sRGB-04.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
