Here is the editing tablet I was using: geni.us/MQfAC

I bought my first Wacom tablet in 2003 and since then I've only used it - not the same one, of course.
@@claudiogavinho Fantastic! Have you ever thought about updating it or is the older model pretty good? For anyone reading this, getting a used one sounds like a great idea 🙂
@@MattShannonPhoto Oh, my mistake. Sorry, Matt. I gave the wrong idea. The first Wacom tablet I bought was an Intuos 2, and now I use an Intuos 4. But even the older models are certainly pretty good.
great to hear and for others to read, thanks for sharing
Matt, this is the first of your tutorials that I’ve watched. I haven’t learned anything other than the fact that you seem to like to show off what you can do without giving me the opportunity to learn what you’re doing. I’m gonna watch other tutorials and I hope in those you prove me wrong in my initial impression.
That’s a great way to quickly give images a burst of color!! I have never seen that done before. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge!!
I love this technique. Thank you for sharing. I have already improved several of my photos while I was watching this video.
The fox photo should be hanging in a museum ❤
This really makes images pop
Simple step, amazing result. Thank you for sharing
Jaw-dropping results in literally two steps! Thanks for sharing!
You're so welcome!
The image of the milky way over Venice at 9:33 really cracked me up! Thanks for the entertainment.
Beautiful. Thanks for sharing your technique.
Def bookmarking this video. Super helpful!
Thanks for teaching a new method to pop the images, expecting more like this episode
Awesome, great to hear!
This was very helpful and I enjoyed that you included a LR module. Very informative.
Great video Matt! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Cheers from New England
Simple and quick. I like it. Thanks for sharing.
Finally a use for colour grading in light room. Thanks for tips on a feature I have been completely ignoring.

Followed because of this video.
Fantastic technique!! Thank you so much!! Very easy to follow and understand!
This works like a charm..Thanks for sharing this excellent technique.
I've wondered how this look was done but couldn't quite figure it out on my own, now I know. Thanks, this is going to be really helpful to me.
Wow Matt!!! Thank you for sharing this video. It is definitely going to add another tool to my editing workflow. Thanks again!
Superb method !!! enjoyed learning with this video. TFS
These are all so beautiful! Thank you for sharing!!
Glad you like them! You are very welcome, thanks for watching.
because the love of photography and see that sick tele on your background, after 10 sec. of the played video, i subscribed.
This is a simple technique, producing outstanding results. Thanks for sharing.🔥
You're very welcome! Thank you for watching, cheers!
You've given me some excellent ideas for many of my photographs and how to solve some problems I've been having. Photoshop is definitely the way to go for the edits you've shown.
Really love this!
That was fantastic! Would love to see you apply this to portraits
It helps me alot 🙏 thanks Matt ❤ love from India ❤
Excellent info! Thanks for taking me along!

I really like this technique and like to see more of your editing type videos
These are definitely techniques i need in my work flow

Thanks 🤟
This was awesome! Thanks for these tips--I plan on using them to add punch and color. Looking forward to further videos and content from your channel!
Great tutorial. simple with great affects
Thanks!
Really like your techniques and I’m certainly going to try them. Thanks 👍
Great tips! Thanks for sharing!
Great PS technique, will definitely use this, thanks Matt.
Damn, that was excellent. I've been struggling with my edits to get them to look like what you see all over the internet from the Pros. I'm more of a LRC person, but I know just enough PS to be dangerous. This makes me want to try them out in PS! Incredibly helpful, thank you.
Thank you and so glad this popped up in my feed. I immediately put it to work and I'm loving it. I had just learned (stumbled on) the Lightroom way but like the Photoshop process better. I don't really use PS....need to utilize it more.
Great tutorial. Thanks!
Very unique approach. Good work!
LOOKS GREAT!! (BEFORE & AFTER) 🙂
WOW…THANK YOU, Matt..I have never done this type of editing…I do have the tablet and love it over a mouse…can’t wait to try these tips out Thanks again!
Very cool. Thanks!
Thanks Matt, great vid again.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching
This is something!!! Easy to use in my workflow. Thank you for sharing this. And I hope you getting better 🙂
I hope so too! Thanks for the positive feedback! Cheers.
Very cool technique !
This is awesome! I appreciate it.
Thank you :)
Fantastic!
Thank you! Cheers!
Yes! Amazing tip. You explained it great and you have beautiful image examples! Thank you for sharing. I'm definitely going to try this. :D
Excellent tips here. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks Matt! Like others, I haven’t seen that technique before! Very cool way to add some pop !
Thanks Matt, great help and video
Happy to hear it! Cheers
very cool - thanks for showing this
You are welcome! Thanks for watching, cheers
Hi Matt, just subscribed now, I love this just what I've been looking for, now time to try it myself. Cheers Tony
Thank you for making this informative tutorial. I see a tremendous amount of potential after I learn some of these basic skills to enhance my photography. Some of the photos I know are decent compositions, however, a bit lackluster due to over/under exposed and being in my infancy. Cheers to your style of photography, in making this video, and everything else you may be doing on the community which I am unaware of.
I usually use the lightroom method, I tried your photoshop trick and wow it looked so much better....thamks!
60% of the time, it works every time. but seriously, it works.
Yes 😄
Excellent!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Very clever...thanks a lot, Ima gonna try this yellow/blue colors enhancement on some of my work in PS!
Awesome tip! Thanks a lot for sharing. I just moved to Lethridge, Alberta from Ontario. No regrets! 👌🏻
Thanks for the LR steps. Color correction is always the challenge.
You are welcome and I completely agree.
Wow! A blessing of a lesson!
Thank you, I’m assuming you haven’t tried this technique?
Perhaps I should name it ☺️😎
@@MattShannonPhoto No, I haven't. So much in Adobe is still a mystery. Photography is my "hobby", and my job requires most of my time. This was one of the most interesting tips I've seen - and in such a quick presentation.
Time is short, if only our weeks were longer.
Yeah, I wanted to do a fast video with all the steps that keep people interested and informed. The retention for editing videos is really short on TH-cam so to be relevant and informative, it has to be quick :)
Fantastic thanks
Thanks - interesting technique
Thank you for the tutorial. Just subscribed, great channel!
Thank you for the kind words and for the sub! Welcome to the channel!
Excellent!
Many thanks!
Nice pics and great work. Thanks for the education. :)
Long time light room user who has just started dipping my toes into photoshop using layered masks. This was great!
Awesome! Glad you liked it and I hope it helps.
😊❤@@MattShannonPhoto
Thanks for walking through these steps. I tried the technique on a few of my photos, and now the photos really pop. It took awhile to get used to the steps and adjusting the colors but in the end, it worked!
Well this just inspired me to go home and retouch up some photos.
Great to hear!
Amazing images!!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video, thank you. I do basically the same thing color dodging and burning with a luminosity mask but I like this method. I use ACR so used your color grading method in ACR and then tried it on a second image when I took the image into PS to finish. Very similar results using both methods but do like PS better. Quicker than using luminosity masks.
Hi, Thank you from southwestern France!
Lets get started! That looked too easy until I try this. Great results as always Matt.
Give it a try and let me know how you made out. I added a bunch of examples so that these two steps did indeed work well on most images. But the "proof is in the pudding" as they say so I'm curious how viewers will make out trying this themselves 😊
@@MattShannonPhoto I have tried this 20 times and i keep ending up making a mess lol
@@devo5566 Oh no, perhaps I made it look too easy in the video when really it takes a lot of time and practice. Make sure your brush's opacity and flow isn't set to 100% or else your going to add too much Dodge and Soft Light to the image all at once. You can change the flow and opacity at the top of the PS page when you have the paint brush selected. Hope that helps 🙂
Nice! I was already doing the Lightroom (Camera Raw) variant, but it's nice to see how to do the same thing in Photoshop!
Thanks for the tutorial. In Lightroom, you can also use the masking tool with a coloured brush. This gives more control over the process, than only the colour wheels which affect the whole image at once.
I only edit in Lightroom, now I need to learn edit in photoshop. Great video!
I rarely use LR and your examples were a good reason to use PS when more that basic adjustments are utilized.
Glad the examples were helpful!
Great tutorial. Never thought of this. I'm a Capture One user, primarily due to way Lightroom handles Fuji Raw files. Will try to replicate and see how things go. Thinking colour grading and wheels, similar to Lr is the best place to start experimenting!
Great video as always, Matt. I usually do the global adjustments in LR (or Camera Raw) and the specific adjustments in PS. It's the way I work faster.
In LR, to enhance color, I first use the blue channel in the Calibration panel.
I noticed something that might be important, especially for those who are not used to editing with masks: controlling the opacity, flow, and smoothing of the brush.
Thank you! My work flow is basically the same as yours, global adjustments in LR and then throw it into PS for the detail work. I've used Capture One and I liked it, but most of my work is done in Adobe software including Premier Pro for video, Bridge for organization, After Affects when needed and a few more. So... LR will have to do considering the all-in-one package I pay for. I do like how adobe works well with other adobe software, Bridge to LR to PS and back to LR, and their printing adjustments are easy to use when printing at home both in LR and PS. I'm sure Capture One is good too but I never got to that state when I used it.
@@MattShannonPhoto I completely understand and agree that the workflow in LR is much more fluid. However, not all adjustments are available when using masks, which is a little bothersome.
totally. Adobe could slam it all into one program im sure but that isn't good business for them.
good work
Cool technique, I particularly like the fake milky way over Venice lol
Interesting, I use a similar technique to edit real estate photography. The flambiant method bending a flash image and an ambient light image using a layer mask. Beautiful images sir! Excellent work on the tutorial!
I'd like to see this if you ever record yourself doing it.
Absolutley incredible! I can’t wait to try this. I’ve not seen this method before and is super effective. One question… is there a specific blue or yellow you start with?
Thanks buddy , I haven’t got lightroom , but I do have photo shop , cheers Shane uk 🇬🇧
💫
nice!
Thanks!
Good morning, I just tried the photoshop version, and it's just so good! My only doubt was how to apply more whites to a snowy mountain scene? The rocks really were enhanced with the bluish layer! Thank you very much, and regards from Uruguay.
Damn, fu*king good!
Thank you, Cheers!
“Let’s transform some boring photos…” then proceeds to break out some killer images. 😂 Great tips though, thank you!
lol you are too kind! I will admit that the images were not the RAW form but completed to a stage where the two steps help them cross the finish line. Some images were composites too. I'm glad you thought the video had great tips, thank you for watching! Cheers
Neat trick. I will create an action that creates two solid color layers and blend modes, then brush them.
Should've mentioned your brush settings which make everything possible for your pictures.
Great video, awesome detail thank you. Can I ask on the Brushes... opacity, flow, etc used please? thanks
просто супер 👍👍👍
Great video. I'll be trying this in photoshop. Would you not use the mask features in lightroom to paint the effects in a similar way that you did in photoshop instead of just using the grading section?
