[QUOTE="dh photography, post: 620183, member: 25354"] Thanks for all of the feedback and advice! Helps a TON with confirmation of what I'm seeing and what I'm not. Pulled back up here at the office, and I see how the 2nd shot is still a bit over exposed. The good part is that I can lower it down more in LR and keep it looking natural. [USER=22693]@Blacktop[/USER] - totally agree on the crappy background color. Funny how the client can end up directing the location of the shots to the worst possible spot for what we envision ahead of time. I'm hoping I can do a little PS background swapping, but being a complete PS rookie isn't helping my effort. I can get the background layer selected; and even replaced, but the edge blending is killing me. I'll have a few 4x6s printed today just to see how that works out. I doubt any of the shots ever get printed by the client. These are only going on their website; with the exception of the Doc's image, that may go on their brochures. I'm still not sure why my initial edits that look great in LR on my MacBook then appear darker when opened on other devices. The colors seem to be doing ok, but the exposure is off for sure.
