The Inordinary
Cine Streets

Nine presets built from Melbourne light — overpass amber, tram-door teal, the particular gold of a street at the wrong hour. Every photograph on this site was graded with them.

questions

Which Lightroom do I need?

The XMP presets work in Adobe Lightroom and Lightroom Classic on desktop. The DNG versions work in the Lightroom mobile app, which is free — no subscription needed to use the presets on your phone.

Will they suit my photos?

They were built for street scenes in warm, low, or mixed light — daylight gold to night neon. They are starting points, not one-tap magic: the included toolkit and usage tips are there to help you adapt each look to your own frames.

How do I receive them?

Instant download after checkout, with a link sent to your email. One zip: presets, toolkit, guides, and practice photos.

Do I need to know how to edit?

No. The install guide gets the presets into Lightroom in a few minutes, and the twelve-step toolkit teaches the edit as you apply it — it is the same order of operations used on every photograph on this site.

Nine looks, the toolkit behind them, and everything to learn both.
