I was wondering under what conditions people edit their shots at home. I have a small room which has a desk with a pc and the room also doubles as book storage, documents etc. It is west facing with a tall , narrowish window and the light conditions change throughout the day. It has a Roman blind which is quite thin fabric and lets a lot of light through.
The room has a central pendant light and there is a small desk light.
Last week I was trying to edit on LR and the light was so bright that I could barely see the monitor screen and subtle edits were impossible. Also the perception of the colours is affected by the ambient light. It is not helped by the monitor being at a right angle to the window light.
Do people generally edit in the dark?
Do you have a light on at night?
If you have a light bulb is it a daylight bulb - I was thinking that this may help.
Any advice welcome.
