Welcome to Episode 5 of our Weekly Lightroom Edit. I must apologize in advance that this episode is a bit late. I am still out galavanting through China. But, I will catch us up with 2 episodes one of these weeks, so don't worry.

I have this shot out here that was taken at a farm in a rural area in Canton. Awesomely enough, the farmer is actually smoking while farming. You know, puff and pluck, puff and pluck. Anyway, when looking at this image, it reminds me of a 1960-1970 era photograph that I might have seen in Time magazine or National Geographic. So, we are going to create that look and effect in Lightroom.

Hope you all enjoy!
