I took some photos of my cat to try different settings. I then imported them into Lightroom and kept the ones I like and did some adjustments to the whites and blacks. I then exported an image out as a .tif. When I opened the .tif file, the colours are not the same as they look in Lightroom.
I then decided to right click the image in Lightroom and selected edit in Photoshop 2014. The colours are different than the colours in Lightroom also.
I do like the colours of the Lightroom image; but, the colours in the .tif exported out and the Photoshop file are closer to the actual colours (of the scratching post).
This is the first time I decided to adjust the whites and blacks within Lightroom because I see that many people do this. I usually go directly from Lightroom and edit in Photoshop where I then use filters if I want to.
The image above is a screenshot of within Lightroom and one exported out as .tif. The one on the left is the TIFF file and the one on the right is in Lightroom after I tweaked whites and blacks. The TIFF file looks the same as the one I opened in Photoshop 2014.
Am I using the wrong colour profile in Lightroom? I like the colour of the scratching post in Lightroom's image even though it is different than the actual colour.
I am on Adobe's Cloud membership; so, it is not an issue of not having updated software (everything is updated). I also shoot in camera RAW (Canon). I am disappointed with the output from Lightroom; especially after spending time doing all these adjustments to all my images.
Okay, what am I doing wrong; I am still learning Lightroom? Do I need to set a colour profile in each program I use (so they are all the same)?
Thanks.
