we will look try to discover the moderation point. But then again, it's a personal preference and you will get the hand of it once you start editing your photos. You will find out that as you progress, you will resist from using the clarity slider. Using too much clarity has a lot of drawbacks. Besides looking unrealistic. If you have a line of contrast, for instance, the line at which a building meets the sky, using too much clarity will create a halo affect around it. In other words, a bright line will form at the line where anything dark meets with anything light. Also, colors and tones will act strange near the lines of contrast. Is there a way to apply clarity and not have halo effects? Yes! There is! and we will cover that too in this video. One of the ways is to use selective clarity or using adjustment brushes to apply clarity locally. In this method you only apply clarity to the areas that you want to. Not touching the line of contrast, this type of clarity will allow you to get rid of the halo affect and unrealistic tones. Clarity, just like any other slider in Lightroom, applied in moderation in great, but too much of it makes you image look as if it was on steroids

I'm totally guilty of that when I first got lightroom last year and had no idea about other ways of accentuating my image. Luckily I was doing a lot of indoor urbex photography at the time and it worked. But yeah not so much later on.

I'm a starting LR user and this video really helped me understand the difference. I'll be sure to keep the Clarity slider at bay: ) Thanks!
