In fact, about 75% of the edits to this photo were done on my iPad in Lightroom Mobile.

Monsoon Magic
Recently someone on my Facebook page challenged me to produce a sunset photo processed only in Lightroom, and this is my answer to that request! Although rainy season in Japan certainly produces a lot of rain, it also produces some incredible sunsets. We’ve had a string of those this year, but I’ve been super busy preparing for a trip to the US this week so I haven’t had a chance to really photograph them, so...
