Free Lightroom Nightscape Presets

My presets for Adobe Lightroom are “donationware”. I develop, release, and maintain them for free, and you can use them for free forever, but I hope you find them worthy of a gift of thanks or encouragement.

The classic, original presets that have been downloaded by thousands on davidkingham.com and included in my eBook 'Nightscape'. If you are looking for something new, take a look at my Advanced Nightscape Presets.

Do your night images lack that 'pop' that really makes them stand out from the crowd? Processing night images can be complex, and I've spent countless hours developing these presets based on my experiences editing night photographs.
