A while ago I created a Lightroom video tutorial on using the split toning tool. This tool is one of my favourite features introduced as part of Lightroom 3. Whilst the split toning effect has been possible in Photoshop for some time now, I still prefer the simplicity and ease that the Lightroom split toning tool offers. It allows you to introduce colours to your shadow or highlights thus allowing some interesting effects. Personally I think the split toning tool is best suited for street and candid photography. I tend not to use split toning for landscape and seascape images as we are more looking to accurately represent the original colours of the scene rather than introducing colours to our shadows and highlights. If anything, I would possibly create a very minor split toning that is barely recognisable rather than go overboard.

Hope this Lightroom 3 tutorial has been helpful Adobe Lightroom Video Tutorial   Split Toning
