Create the perfect look for every image whether you shoot RAW or JPEG — Lightroom 6/CC includes a comprehensive range of leading-edge image processing tools. Make precise adjustments to colour and contrast, use a flexible brush or a gradient tool to edit targeted areas of your photo, convert to black and white, reduce noise, adjust sharpness, correct perspective and much more. This course appeals to anyone with an interest in photography and digital arts using either MAC or PCs.

Adobe Lightroom 6/CC has become the standard photo management and image editing program to allow you to enhance and manipulate your photographs to bring out the very best quality, colour, exposure and resolution. The end result is a quality image which can be turned into a fine art photograph or canvas, a book, photographic album or to showcase your talent on social networking sites such as Facebook, Linked-in or gallery sites such as Flickr and Picasa.

Refunds

We reserve the right to cancel and reschedule any course, due to inadequate enrollment, bad weather, instructor illness, or an 'act of God'. We also reserve the right to cancel any course if there is insufficient demand, especially if it means that our costs would be higher than our income. Please therefore do not leave it until the last few weeks if you are interested in a particular date, as you may find that it has been cancelled. As our costs for each training event remain the same no matter how many delegates attend, like any pre-booked tickets for the theatre, concert, flights etc, we are unable to give a full refund in the event of non-attendance, regardless of the circumstances. If withdrawal occurs within the 14 days before the course starts we will try to put you on an alternative date if places are available. Please note that we cannot be liable for any other costs incurred by yourself, so please check with us before booking any non-refundable accommodation or transport.
