Cool! Of course there is always the old photo preset
Not always suitable though…
Did you know you can double click on a slider or its title to reset it? So when you reset the saturation you could have just double-clicked the the word ’saturation’. Just in case you didn’t know

Ya, I don’t really like that preset.
Ya I know about the double clicking thing but I missed my aim and double clicked on the number! ha! But it’s good you mention it so that others can know! Good catch.
Don’t thank me, thank Matt K, and then thank yourself because it’s due to the YPS scholarship that I watched his Lightroom videos on KelbyTraining.com
The circle is complete. Woo!
