    Good overall training. The voice was a little monotone. Good for knowing what each and every setting/panel does in Lightroom. Could have been more examples of using the features.

    Présentation claire et scolaire des fonctionnalité de Lightroom. Dommage que les exemples proposés se bornent à montrer les fonctions et non à améliorer les images utilisées, respectivement à les retravailler de façon créative.

    Till the spot removal (develop mode), the instructor has super grip on it. He is also dealing with cases (so that naïve could be helped as well). From my side, 5 stars are must. Hope when it gets 100% (rn, almost 55%), it’d be super beneficial for me. Thank you so much
