Thanks Eve and @thephotoncollective I think (LOL!) I've downloaded the presets but I am not sure where to expect to see them in LR

@pixiemac sounds like you're all set? Let me know if you have any other questions.

For anyone else unsure how to install, detailed installation instructions are included in the download (readme.rtf) as well as on the download page, but here's the method I recommend:

Import the Presets via Lightroom:

Extract the files to a desired folder on your desktop.

In Lightroom, enter the Develop Module and right-click on User Presets or a new folder of your choice (we recommend making a new folder called “The Quantum Collection”) inside the left presets toolbar and choose Import.

In the Import Preset dialogue box, navigate to and select all the .LRTEMPLATE files you originally extracted and click Import.

Now you can select any of the presets of your choice in the Develop Module.

@thephotoncollective Thank you Diana. Perhaps you should put out a shameless and brazen plug for the photon collective website too - you never know who might subscribe!

@creampuff i'm getting an error message whenever I try to start a new thread, but I'll start by trying to intro our site here...

Hi fellow photographers!

I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and the new website behind the presets mentioned here (and other free tools to come).

I'm Diana Southern from The Photon Collective, a new photography website that launched yesterday (February 10, 2015). My boyfriend Ian and I have a passion for photography and travel, and The Photon Collective is the home of our photography adventures as well as a place for like-minded creatives to collaborate with us.

On TPC you'll find our best efforts to impart our own knowledge and experiences in photography to you. We’re working full-time on the content of The Photon Collective, and everything you find there is the original work of our awesome team and carefully-selected guest contributors. I'm most excited about our free tutorials and tools, but we'll also be sharing gear reviews and our thoughts on the latest happenings in the photography world.

We'd love to have all you photographers here on 365project.org check it out and let us know what you think! You can read more about us and our website in Ian's welcome post here.

We've launched with a small sample of the type of content that's to come on our website. Our first articles include:
How-To: Levitation Photography
Atomos Shogun Review
My DSLR to Mirrorless Switch: Affording More Glass with Sony’s Shapeshifting Cameras
The Quantum Collection: Free Presets for Adobe Lightroom and Camera Raw
Enter to Win a One-Year Membership to Skillshare

We want to make The Photon Collective one of the best photography websites on the Internet, and if you're into creative and collaborative photography, we hope you'll join us!

Thanks for reading,
Diana and Ian

p.s. Thanks to @creampuff for sharing our presets!
