You can import presets on there. You can do all different kinds of editing. You can really manipulate the photo any way that you want it. If you made the mistake of taking a photo the wrong way you can correct it completely. You can change the brightness, the highlights, the luminance, the whites, the blacks, the color grading, the graininess. It has in-app tutorials and it can show you how to edit as well as just navigate the editing software.

I think Lightroom is great for any photographer at any level or in any style.

There really isn’t another brand in comparison to Adobe that offers such a very easily accessible but yet very excellent editing software. One thing I also like is that you can edit on your phone or your tablet or any device that you have. You don’t have to strictly just use your computer.

Alumilite Amazing Clear Cast Resin Review

Get a high gloss finish with the Alumilite Amazing Clear Cast resin that can be poured over your projects to put a protective layer over it. The two 16 ounce bottles produce a total of 32 ounces to use. Castings made with Amazing Clear Cast are strong and resilient, with a surface that is resistant to scratching, staining, and chipping. The cured resin is also non-toxic and can be safely sanded, drilled, machined, or polished.

Amazing Clear Cast is easy to use and produces beautiful, high-quality results. Xavier recommends the Alumilite Amazing Clear Cast resin for anyone looking to add a clear protective coating to their art or to add a high gloss finish.

As shown above, Xavier uses the Alumilite Amazing Clear Cast resin on his coffee tables to get a high gloss finish and a protective layer of the piece itself. This resin can also be used for other projects such as being poured into various molds in order to create resin cast products. One of the best things about this product is its clarity - it produces castings that are almost entirely invisible once cured. This makes it an ideal choice for making furniture, crafting delicate figurines, creating detailed replicas of objects or monuments, and more.
