Thank you!
Mate, this is the best technique I've ever used for blending disparate tonal values. Well done!
Thank you so much! I do a lot of Real Estate Photography and this will really help!
This is a very good technique! After processing a photo this way it natural, not like in HDR. Thank you.
Your videos are always the first place I go. You go carefully through a simple straightforward example so I'll have a way to start.
Thanks. That looks so much easier than alternatives I was considering.
Thank you Anthony. Once again you explain PS in simple clear language. Excellent!
I didn't know about the second way! Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video. I'm finally starting to understand what channels and luminosity masking are all about.
Thanks Anthony for your explanation in blending images. I used to have problems taking photos in historical buildings with blown out window. Now I know how to rectify this problem.
Very clear explanation of Luminosity Masking. Just what I needed. Thanks a ton.
Wow! That was easy! I've been looking for this exact tutorial. Thank you, well done!
After too many years using PS, I have always only used the Blend option for focus stacking! Thanks Anthony
Great tutorial, as usual!! I'll try to make an action and automate the process. Thanks so much!
Thanks for the tip Anthony...
Major cool! Thanks for this; can't wait to use it!
I learnt LR from you years ago. Glad to be back watching your tutorials again.
Wow, never thought of doing it this way. Ima have to try this out! So much simplier that some other methods of doing it - although I know you can get as complex as you like with this stuff, this is a great starting point. Thanks Anthony!
This is terrific. Better than merging images using Photomerge - HDR in LR. Thanks so much.
Another great tutorial. You make things look so easy. Easier than creating HDR files.
Very useful and remarkably straighforward
Thank you, Anthony.
Thank you for your great video
Brilliant, thank you
Great job, Anthony. I bet you just made luminosity masks less "scary" for hundreds of your viewers. I can't recall seeing a better how-to for beginners.
Awesome tip!!!
Nice demo
Good video! At the beginning you spoke of the order of the two images in PS. What determines which image goes on top or bottom? Is this process for only 2 images or can 3 be used the same way?
Thanks 😊
Another great and helpful video Anthony. But why couldn't use just use HDR?
Anthony thanks for first tip on using channels.
Anthony thanks for those tips. When we have only one version of an image and want to use luminosity masks to process the image I have used both ON1 and Luminar 4 (AI dropped them sadly). There are several 3rd party luminosity masking panels available for PScc. Any advice on those? Looking forward to your next video.
Thanks for sharing this technique Anthony. It works will for me with tif files, but PS does not give me the option to auto-align the layers with RAW files. Can you tell me why is that?
I watched it even though I no longer use PS! Any chance you could show how to do it in On1 Photo Raw?
I didn't know you had to have your layers in the right order before aligning them. Maybe that's why some of my blends don't match up right. Also, my Tamron 24-70 G2 has some issues with focus breathing when I focus stack images and I have a hard time getting everything aligned properly when I stack them. Could you do a video on how to fix this?
Hi Anthony Just wanted to ask you what you think of Tony Kyper panels. I was looking at the K7 version and it seemed a fast and easy way of masking, actions, etc in photoshop. Do you think they are worth having or perhaps they stop a person learning how to do things the correct way.
Anthony, what is your process for focus stacking?
Great video. Nice trick to make luminosity masks manually. The second way doesn't work on my Win10/PS22.4.1 with any exposure bracket. If Photoshop auto blends layers with different exposure, layers with the source images (CR2) are changed in exposure after the blend, despite of the layer masks and the blend is complete wrong. Can I send you the RAW's if it also fails with you? Or can I send you a videoclip (hidden on TH-cam) in which I show you? Is it Photoshop or is it me? Thanks.
Hi Anthony...thanks very much for this tutorial! I just wanted to confirm that these 2 methods do not require the use of any plug-ins. This is correct, right?
So if you auto-align the layers first, and then you rearrange the order of the layers, it will cause them to be unaligned?
Nice but..
How can you do this if you have more than two images. Normally I like to capture more than two images but the range of tones. Thanks
why would changing the layer order mess up the alignment? it only changes which layer is in front and not the position (x,y) of those layers, right?
Excellent info Anthony; Thank you!
Hi Anthony. I shoot wildlife and and would love how to put catch-light into the animal/birds eyes? Please present a short video how to? Kindest regards, Ian
Hi Anthony great video can this be done in affinity Photo?
Love your videos kind regards Peter
Ian that would be a good video for Anthony to show us
Tried it but neither technique seems to work for me. Have an image of a room with a window to outside. Layer mask method leaves outside scene "foggy" looking while AutoBlend does not darken window image enough. Is there anything else to try with these techniques before resorting to more traditional blending techniques?
Is there a way to lighten the darks?
Well that’s interesting. I’ve been blending two, or more, photos due to their exposure dynamic range differences for several years. This is the first time I’ve seen this technique. I do have several questions though. Why would moving one layer over another layer in an aligned group change the alignment? The other question is, I’ve been using either the darken mode or lighten mode blending techniques. How is this different?
Sequence is important as we are choosing the luminosity mask to cut/unmask the windows in the final composition. If we choose the below layer first than we will have to inverse the selection which will be less accurate.
@@dr.aruneshgupta4975 thank you for the response but it doesn’t apply to the questions asked.
Why do you import the 2 photos from lightroom to photoshop?
Didn't work for me. After the layer mask the bright background was slightly less bright, but still too bright. I assume the difference in exposure can't be too great for this technique to work. Why not just use HDR?
I have tried it in 2015 version and it does not work.
