The amount of information you charge in every minute is unbelievable. I can handle this in ten-minute intervals.
Well done, Mark. You're a master
lol what
I like the intro...i dont know why i always have to explain that to people who are starting out in photography.
I guess you must have been standing in a darkroom, watching the pro's at work and explaining to you what they are doing. I guess i've been lucky.
Thanks Mark.
One of the best photography channels in TH-cam! Thank you
Wow, thanks!
You content never ceases to amaze us TH-camrs. I never would have guessed I would watch, learn and enjoy a 2-hour You Tube presentation. And speechless by the lack of likes compared to the total views. Well done sir.
Hands down the best tutorial video i've seen on youtube
Wow, thanks!
Best online class ever! Than you
Clean crisp precise, and the information is priceless
Best two hours I've spent on YT photo videos. Full marks, Mark
Glad you enjoyed it
The most professional channel for Sony Alpha and LR/PS users. Lot's of condensed information about how to use Sony cameras in different situations and how to use LR_PS task oriented and always showing great images before and after. I'm really font of your work Mark. Your not just a great photographer but a great teacher as well.
Thanks for your positive feedback
This is the most helpful photography channel on youtube. Thanks for all the good work
i admire the beginning portion of the video. i've always thought the same about how editing a photo brings into existence what we really saw and felt in that moment but had never seen it articulated so beautifully, thank you!
Another fantastic video from Mark; his portrait one is also excellent and highly recommended if anyone hasn't seen that.
The extra bonus in these videos for me though is seeing how Mark has scored his own photos using the stars bottom left of the images!
This is the best explanation I have seen that explain when you use LR or PS for post processing isn’t “cheating”. Thank you for explaining it to me.
Without a doubt one of the best photography channels on youtube. No Fluff at all
Thank you for the great service done by you for the Sony Alpha community and also for the general photography community around the world.
Thanks Saman 😀
Awesome masterclass, Mark.....I'll be saving this one to replay a few more times...definitely GOLD!!
Yet another incredibly helpful and thoughtful video! While there are plenty of "photographers" on TH-cam providing opinion that no one asks for, Mark is just killing it with stuff that has actual value. A great inspiration, Mark!! Thank you for all that you share with us mere mortals.
Thanks for this movie Mark. This is true helpful and practical advice to improve my end-to-end photo making process.
The man pushing a pram towards the bridge image was my favourite example of how effective post can be. The meaning of the image is completely altered.
Coffee in hand and ready to spend the next 2 hours learning from the best alpha channel there is on youtube.
One of the best photography classes besides teaching us lightroom. Brilliant!
Best two-hours of my photo-life so far. Thank you, Mark! this was awesome. Thanks for being committed and for helping others get their start!
This came at the perfect time for me. I am new to photography, and new to Lightroom, and I've taken a couple of days going through each section of your video and using the tools with many of my images. With so many options and settings, it's easy to be overwhelmed, but you've definitely made everything seem very straightforward. 'Masterclass' is the perfect description of this video. Thank you!
You're the best! I've watched many Lightroom tutorials in the last 5 years I've been using it and this one is probably the most comprehensive and easy to understand.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. The most complete tutorial on Lightroom I've ever watched.
This is actually the exact topic I hoped you would cover, Mark. Thank you very very much!
Beyond the lightroom edition, it's the philosophy of this man that makes me enjoy the video...
Thank you for such a thorough walk-through of LR & PS! Extremely helpful and very inspiring
Thank you Mark... You are a ATAR....
just found your channel been using Lightroom for yrs and always. learning new little tips can't believe iv watched this all in one sitting excellent work thank you for taking time to. making this video
Great to hear!
Well done, Mate! I'm sure I'll be replaying this video many, many times to help me through Lightroom CC! Thanks again!
Forgot to write - Mark as always great thanks for the sober and unpretentious richness of your instructions.
Easily the most thorough and helpful lightroom tutorial I have found on you tube. Thanks so much. 🙏
Mark, this is such a wonderful masterclass. I'm viewing it again after watching it several months ago. It made me realise that there are a couple techniques I've incorporated since my first viewing (most notably the luminance and colour range masks when using the filters). Now, I'll be incorporating your other technique regarding filters which is combining the brush tool to fine tune selected areas when using the radial brush etc. And perhaps more importantly, your technique on dealing with noise reduction at higher ISOs. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!!! I will certainly view again in a few months to see what other gems I may recognise then!
Hi Mark,
This is a 2 hour long video, packed with your many years of experience and knowledge. I would consider this as the best tutorial that I have ever seen on Lightroom.
Thank you for your immense effort in creating this fantastic presentation and appreciate your generosity to share with us.
Regards
Sarajit
Thank you, thank you. You are a marvelous teacher, I so appreciate your efforts.
Good lord that is one awesome master class! I've been using Lightroom for a few years but still picked up some great tips and ideas. Mark - I wish I'd discovered your channel ages ago. Your style of presentation and the way you treat your images is excellent. Thank you for your time putting this video together.
Super. A true reference video for RAW PP. Thanks for putting the considerable effort into this genuine Master class!
I really appreciate your clear, thoughtful consideration of the notion of "real" vs. "photoshopped reality" at the beginning of this video. It's become increasingly important for me to have reasonable rationale, or at least a working definition as to why post is legitimate creatively and the boundaries that define realism in contemporary image making. Thank You!
Thanks to people like you I’m really starting to benefit from the time and effort you put into your videos. My family are too with prints and images I share! Thanks!
I've learnt so much from watching all of your videos Mark, always well structured and explained. Thank you very much for taking the time to make them!
This is without doubt the best editing Lr tutorial I've seen, no its not a tutorial, its a master class. Learnt a lot, now I know what the range mask is and what it does! This is getting bookmarked
There are many photography tutorial TH-cam videos out there, but none of them so far that i have watched will show the Lightroom side bar in enlarge mode, which really helps learner to see what tools you are pointing out, excellent work, thank you !
Mark, as I wrote already...you are "the master" fro me! I learned so much from you concerning using all my SONY cameras in a proper way and I am really impressed about your Lightroom skills as well...unbelievable good! Please go ahead with your perfect content and thanks for sharing all your fantastic knowledge!
What an exceptional presentation on Lightroom. Your relaxed and clear style is refreshing.
Thanks Mark, I always thought post editing is faking, thank you for explaining the concept of what we really see and feel, I will start editing my pictures... :-) it totally changed my perspective!
This videos are so helpful for me. I enjoy the voice and the visual tutorials, thank you very much! Hope for more in the future.
Cheers
I just finished watching this tutorial after I came across another video of yours previously. I really appreciate how informative and educational both of the videos were, and picked up on a few techniques from the couple I have watched that I believe will be quite helpful with my own photography. I want to extend a huge thank you for this as it gets so irritating with other TH-cam photographers who are more interested in pushing gear for an extra buck or kick backs rather than truly be helpful to other photographers that hold a true passion for the art; however maybe there is a certain few techniques that could give them that extra edge. Again, great video and very informative, Thank you!
This is the most and helpful photography channel on youtube. Thanks for all the good work thank you master
This was a fantastic video; thank you Mark for the hard work.
Great Mark. I found you again. A long time ago I watched a video of yours and it was really great and I learned a lot. It was just in passing and I lost you but searched now and found you again. Looking very forward to getting started and learning from all your experience. Looking forward. Tom in NYC
The way you described processing your images is the most beautiful way of expressing this. Thank you for your perspective!
You are so welcome!
Thank you for the nice and clear language , and easy to understand video
Mark, your channel is fantastic! I am a serious amateur, who just recently jumped into the Sony platform with an A7RM3. I have been a lifelong Nikon user (D810) and although I find myself using the Sony almost 95% of the time, I have not left the platform completely, as I have some awesome glass that I don't want to part with--- and don't yet have the equivalent on the Sony side. I stumbled across your channel, and have been a dedicated fan ever since (and plan on joining, soon). Your reviews, tutorials and general virtual guidance have taught me alot about the camera, and taking better photographs, in general. Please keep up the great work of carrying the Sony flag, and teaching all of us how to enjoy this awesome hobby.
Thanks for the positive feedback Karl
Absolutely brilliant - as someone who produces basic youtube vids this must have taken so much time to put together! Super valuable!
You are extremely generous for this. Seriously. You are a gentleman and a scholar sir. For that I thank you!!!
This is fantastic. Looking forward to watching fully tonight. Thank You.
An absolute masterclass. Thank you for the amazing tutorial and for your time in creating this very in depth video.
This may be one of the most useful Lightroom tutorials I have viewed at this point in my hobby career. I have pages of notes and have already used some of the techniques mentioned here to edit photos I thought were non-starters. Thanks for the time you spent on this.
Glad it was helpful!
As a Capture One user I can translate everything you teach very easy! Thanks Marc for this great and universal teaching
Remarkable tutorial. Thank you Mark.
I love this channel. Always great info and very well laid out. Even for me, who's moving away from the (questionable?) tactics of Adobe, I watched this whole video since much of it applies to all photo editors (using CaptureOne these days), and not just Lightroom. So it's a masteclass for Lightroom, but also a very nice resource for us not using that.
Thanks Very Much, Mr Galer!
What a fantastic video you've put together here! I've been using LR for a couple of years but have learnt so much more from your presentation. Top quality, subscribed!
Thank you for the vid. Feels like I'm starting to under stand the basics a bit more
Thank you Mark. You are an excellent teacher and thank so much for all the explanations and information work input here. I always learn so much from you.
Outstanding tutorial, subscribed 20 minutes into it.
Great video Mark Galer. It magically appeared in my feed for which I'm grateful. Superb teaching style. Easy to follow and understand. I'm a long time LR Classic user but there's always something to learn that is new, fresh and exciting.
Awesome. Thank you Mark.
I just want to say thankyou for your work ! all your thoughts are clear, professional and passionate. Thank you very much!
You’re a master! Thanks Mark
I am a new photo student and THIS was a masterpiece. I have subscribed and went to your web site. Tutor par excellence!!!!
Watching again. Maybe 8th time? Getting color checker passport. 😎
I am very happy to find this, an awesome tutorial and I'll be following Mark for sure. Thanks.
Thanks I'm going go watch now:-)
Thank you very much for this wonderful explanation and the ease of information in conveying it.. you have my best regards and appreciation
Brilliant. A must watch for any Lightroom user
Amazing, best presentation I’ve seen and I have seen plenty. Can’t wait to visit your website
Thanks for the information you've shared to us😊
Mr. Galer:
The appearance of DSLRs to me was absolutely daunting up until about a month ago, even though I learned on my fathers AE-1 and developed my own film in an exploratory photography class in high school. With the help of your courses, and a new Sony a7ii (which I'm very proud of) I have evolved from a cell-phone insta-filter style shooter into a capable operator of a tool of optical precision. I feel like a capable photographer after watching and re-watching parts of many of your videos, and I will undoubtedly list you as an influence in my photography given the opportunity.
Another note, as someone who extensively used photoshop for other creative means (I felt very at home to Lightroom,) you've opened my eyes to storytelling through images. Previous, I would have scoffed at an edited photo, but you've really turned me on to expressing myself through photography as a means of storytelling with this particular video. Man, I must have thrown away hundreds of decent shots because of a tree cropping the background oddly, or a car passing at the wrong time, when I could have made a simple edit to convey my message. I'm definitely going to give all my captures the 'Galer' eye from now on.
Thank you for making me feel more comfortable with my device with your stellar coursework, there's a reason you're a global ambassador -- but also, thank you for giving me a thorough appreciation for the art and science of the trade.
Thank you for taking the time to write this feedback - makes my job worthwhile to know I am helping other photographers.
This was incredibly useful, thank you!
Thank you for posting these videos.
This is the most helpfull class that i’ve had since the quarsntine started. Thank you so so much!.
Greetings from Chile!
Glad it was helpful!
Mark, thanks a lot for your very instructive , and extremely helpful site ! This one about LR makes my day !
You are the best photographer for me
Superb pictures you've taken mark thankyou for this video very helpful
Just fantastic!
This was great. Thank you!
Very very insightful and educating. Thank you thank you 🙏
Well, I have to say that this video is the most comprehensive LR explanation and tutorial I have ever seen and worth every second of the 2 and a bit hours. Thankyou so much for sharing!!! I don't think even the great Julieanne Kost could have done better.
Excellent course! Thank you!
Outstanding presentation on Lightroom!
Finally somebody is expressing what I saw for the past decade in my photos and „professional curators“ disqualified as over-expressing color or simply falsifying the “reality” although for centuries renowned painters from da Vinci to Picasso did exactly the same. Even nowadays publications like National Geographics guide their contributors to submit unedited pictures with the reasoning that this way they would see the nature through theirs “eyes”.
The hypocrisy here is the fact that Black and White is considered a normal amount of editing but making an image very warm or very cool to represent an emotional state is not.
Amazing video Mark. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. Cheer on from LA.
Thanks a lot. Impressive lecture!
Thank you so much for your videos. So informative. I've become a Sony A7RIII user with their lenses and your channel is marvelous for Sony users! Thank you much!
Great tutorial. Thanks.
Outstanding tutorial... simply outstanding.
WOW! What a presentation! This video is under rated and it should be top 3 for sure...
