What is a preset for Lightroom?

Lightroom is a photo editing software developed by Adobe. This software exists for both computer and mobile (Adobe Lightroom App for iOS and Android). It allows you to edit photos by acting on many settings. We know how many artists are better than others at creating incredible edits and finally, thanks to presets, we can also apply the same identical filters used to our photos.

A preset is a combination of parameters that are applied to our photo. These parameters include certain values of saturation, contrast, vividness and many others. Applying a specific preset, automatically, to our photo all the parameters included in the preset will be modified according to the values decided by the one who created the preset. These adjustments can also dramatically change the appearance of the original photo!
