I think I would still open the shadows more.  Use the shadows slider and the 
black slider.  Then, maybe it is because I am on my laptop right now, and 
not my desktop.  I'll see what others say if I don't get back to my desktop 
before that.

Welcome to the LR club.

Subject: [LRflex] Gaining a convert... RE: The Pony Club


First of all, thanks to Neil, Philippe and Aram, all of whom have been a 
great
help off-list.

With their encouragement and sage advice, I have started to figure out Light
Room 4.  And it makes sense!

Best of all, I have figured out how to make LR index my photos, without 
moving
the actual images.  In this way, I can continue to use my automated, read 
from
card, convert to DNG, file and rename to my specs; system that I've used for
years!

Now, I know where my images are, and so does LR!

Thank you, all!!

For comparisons, here is the first image I posted, using Silkypix and then
Auto-levels in GIMP.

Here is my attempt to duplicate Neil's re-work,  again, using Silkypix 
alone.

Note the added but unnecessary perspective control.

And here is my first attempt with LightRoom.

So, for George, who said:

I hope you find this an improvement.

Thanks, to all how commented and helped off-list.

I think I'm becoming a convert!

David.
