My second image converted from the RAW using Lightroom 1.0. I have no reason to believe its faults can be blamed on Adobe but I am certainly confused by all the controls and wonder if I made the image better or worse. Perhaps with practice?
Click here to see my first and, as of this posting, only other Lightroom attempt. Both were finished off in Elements 3.

I have added this image to the list's 'Workshop' gallery if anyone would like to show what they consider to be an improvement.
