What Should You Fix in Lightroom, and When Should You Use Photoshop?

You’re cleaning up a photo in Lightroom, but the fix isn’t going quite the way you’d hoped. Do you keep working at it, or send it over to Photoshop?

Knowing when to make that call is one of the things Scott Kelby covers in his new class, 10 Things You Need to Be Doing in Lightroom.

The class grew out of what Scott kept noticing while helping photographers at his workshops. Along with knowing when Photoshop is the better choice for a cleanup, he covers overlooked masking tools, straightening buildings in one click, and understanding Lightroom’s yellow AI warning.

There’s help for the less glamorous side of photography, too: choosing keepers and organizing your images so finding an older photo doesn’t become a project of its own.

If you’ve ever spent too long wrestling with an edit, this is a good one to watch. Knowing which tool to reach for can save you a lot of trial and error.
