[@andremookhoek6533]

mooie foto en heel mooi bewerkt dank je

[@norrinRadd026]

Thank you. Masking has never been one of strong points. Watching you process this image has furthered my understanding of how to use masks to shape light and create depth in an image. Thank you again.

[@ThePhlogPhotography]

I'm very happy to hear that, thank you so much!

[@kcajay]

Awesome 😊😊😊😊😊

[@combatwombat71]

Great video Christian, very useful. I couldn't help noticing the small horizontal shift in the waterfall towards the top. I guess that is one of the hazards of doing multiple shot panoramas when moving objects (ie. the water) are involved.

[@ThePhlogPhotography]

Great catch, didn't notice this until you pointed it out! Shooting an HDR panorama with the moving water this close is indeed tricky :(

[@Orkney_Pirate]

That was excellent Christian, thank you! I hadn't used the Intersect Mask before, wasn't really sure what it was for tbh!

[@ThePhlogPhotography]

IM very happy to hear that, thank you so much!

[@janrolsenfoto]

Did you make the hdr-panorama in Photoshop in the first place?

[@ThePhlogPhotography]

I merged this in Lightroom (but I could have done it in the camera raw editor of Photoshop as well)

[@scandinavianthinking1251]

Christian, Thank you for your excellent illustration! I have a question about saturation, both in today’s and the previous projects, that is, at about 10:18 minutes, raises yellow +29, compared with color grading of yellow reduced to -39, then in calibration saturation at 10:49 raised to +46., which I did’t catch it , in which there is an obvious connection between color grading and saturation that I am not aware about, or what is the impact of these “raise or reduce “method.

[@ThePhlogPhotography]

Thank you so much for commenting!
For this image I reduced the yellow hue in order to introduce more of those autumn colors in the foliage since it shifts the green leafs more into the yellow range. I boosted the yellow saturation to make these colors in particular pop a little more. Pushing the saturation in the calibration tab is just a nice way to make ALL the colors pop some more at the end :-)

[@scandinavianthinking1251]

Great thanks! I catch it. @@ThePhlogPhotography
