Pro Tips for Dussehra Photo Editing
| Tip | Why it works |
|---|---|
| Shoot Ravana Dahan in RAW if your phone allows it | RAW holds more detail in fire highlights than JPEG |
| Apply the fire preset first, then lower highlights | Keeps flames detailed instead of blown out |
| Use the night glow preset for mela crowd shots | Warm tones flatter skin in artificial lighting |
| Keep faces slightly brighter than the background | Viewers look at faces first; don’t let fire overpower them |
| Export at full resolution for prints | Dussehra family photos often get printed don’t compress |
For photos that need a darker, more cinematic grade, the moody cinematic Lightroom presets pair well with these same dramatic energy, deeper shadows.
Common Mistakes & Solutions
| Problem | Quick fix |
|---|---|
| Fire looks orange and flat, no detail | Lower highlights and whites after applying the preset |
| Faces turn too red in fire shots | Reduce saturation on the red channel slightly |
| Night photos look grainy after preset | Apply light noise reduction in Lightroom’s Detail panel |
| Preset looks different on each photo | Every photo has different light adjust exposure to match |
| Colors look unnatural | Dial the preset strength down to 70–80% for a natural look |
When to Use Each Preset

Sunset portraits before the event → Golden Hour Portrait. Soft warmth without overcooking colors.
