Adobe Lightroom is the most popular software for Photographers, this powerful program allows you to carry out a whole range of photo processing, editing and cataloging of your images. One of the best features of Lightroom is the ability to save your settings after editing a photo and re-use those same settings on any future photos with a click of the mouse, these are called “presets” and they can be a massive time-saver.
