Just to be clear, we’re not recommending that anyone become a one-trick pony when editing their image. In the interesting tutorial below, however, you’ll learn how to use one simple Lightroom slider to dramatically enhance landscape photos and other images shot outdoors.

We're always on the lookout for straightforward post-processing tricks that will give images a unique look and make them stand out from the crowd, and this tutorial from Instructor Julieanne Kost does exactly that in less than five minutes.

Instead of making the image smaller and deleting pixels, the new feature allows you to expand image content beyond its original borders by using the Adobe Firefly-powered Generative Fill function to create additional content that never existed but blends naturally with the original image. The new content can be an extension of the original data or based on the Command Prompt you type.

The quick tutorial below from Photoshop Café is a great refresher, explaining five easy-to-use features in Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) that make a big difference in your results.
