- Time Blending is a technique in Landscape Photography where you blend multiple exposures together that were taken at various times. You may see this with sunrise and sunset images, clouds, or even waves and seascapes.
BUT
Did you know you can cut down on your masking work with ONE blend mode to make the process so much easier?
I'll talk about that today and show you just how easy it is.

Very interesting!! I will use this when I travel in January
Thanks for the great information! :)

I appreciate that! It is my sincere pleasure, I love that I get to do this for a living.
Great work,thanks.
My sincere pleasure :)
Dayum Matey.. Nice one. cheers
Thanks😁
Brilliant use of the lighten blend mode. Great tip. Thanks!
Hi Blake! I am an assiduous follower of your top five channel that I consider of great importance for the development of PS. Your works, your photos are just wonderful. There isn't one I haven't liked so far. Congratulations for the excellent work and I would like to thank you immensely for all your attention and contribution with your expertise in PS. However, I would like to make a comment, but it is by no means a criticism of his splendid work, it is extremely valuable to all his followers. It happens that in some video classes you start the presentation of the work with a certain number of ready-made layers, previously edited, and I particularly find it difficult to know how you arrived at the always magnificent result. Very grateful for your attention to us your followers and for contributing with excellent teachings of the PS.
Thanks so much! A lot of times I don't show everything because the specific tutorial is not about that is about the topic of the tutorial. TH-cam videos are meant to be concise and straightforward so I keep them topic specific.
My paid courses, however, go into all the deep stuff with full workflows and all the details. I have to have a draw somewhere 😁
@@f64Academy Thanks a lot you too! I will think better in engaging in your PS course briefly. I will Bê in touch with you. With my kind regards. José Carlos.
BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO!!!!! AS ALWAYS!!!!! thanks for your magnificent knowledge master Yoda.... i mean.... master Blake!!!!
Haha, I'm just a man who loves Photoshop 😁
Simple and very effective! Another great video that helps people to be more creative! Brilliant.
Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
awesome love this I will try it on my channel tutorial video.
I really enjoy your videos. I like to try and imitate your techniques. Sometimes it takes hours but I always learn something!
Glad you like them! That's exactly what I want you to do with them :) Put the knowledge to practice!
Great video! I had never heard of using the lighten blend mode that way - thanks very much for sharing!
My pleasure! Glad it was helpful!
Good information Blake, thank you!
My pleasure!
Perfect .
Thanks!
Multiple excellent tips all explained so well with 2 great examples. Thank you for this Blake. Also enjoyed the Acadia N.P webinar. Your content is always outstanding.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks so much :)
Enjoyed yr tutorial. Very informative. Thanks bro.
My pleasure!
I used this lighten method for applying rimlights into compositions with camera raw filter! 🤩
That's an awesome use for it! Nice!
Excellent instructor for me in Photoshop, thank you for sharing your knowledge.
You're very welcome! It is really my pleasure.
So well explained! Thank you!
You're very welcome!
Amazing trick 👍 Thanks for sharing. I‘ll try this out on my next trip
Woohoo! Give it a shot, its fun, but you definitely need to pre-plan for it.
Masterful! Thanks so much - again!
My pleasure! Glad you got some info out of it!
works for star trails too, although I rather like to stack, convert the stack to a smart object with stack mode maximum for star trails.
That at about 6:00 is the function I’m missing most in ACR but offered by Lr: Match total exposure.
Couldn't agree more!
Awesome tips re: the blend mode. Great idea to blend waves. BTW, love the Jordan Pond image. I've only photographed the pond once in calm conditions and sunlight. Generally, I encounter rain, fog or incredible winds at the pond.
Awesome, thank you! The fog, ugh, the fog, thankfully it broke for me to snag this one.
Excellent! I have a couple of images on which this technique might work. I had the concept but baulked at all the masking but this will make it much easier.
Still not sure that I am sufficiently confident on my composition that I could commit to one shot before sunset and then wait two hours to get the corresponding 'after sunset' shot. I tend to shoot multiple angles/locations to keep looking for a better one.
I scouted this spot three times in the fog before I knew what I would want for that sunset 😁
Great as always! Will the Acadia Webinar be available to watch as I unfortunately missed it due to a call out...
It's available on f64 elite.com for Elite Members. All live events are open to the public, but the replays are archived for Members only.
Excellent tutorial. Question: Can you use this or a similar technique with a series of waterfall shots to get a silky long-exposure look?
You may be able to. I would just try to shoot it normally with long exposure though. Maybe worth a shot though.
depending on circumstances, might darken or multiply be similarly be found useful? Thanks for another informative video.
Definitely could be, where the darker part of the image is the most important piece, for sure.
Having a golden hour foreground and blue hour sky is weird to me aesthetically, but I appreciate the tutorial.
Its actually sunset by the time, but it does look like blue hour. It took a while to grow on me, but I kinda like it.
I think it might also work good with aurora pics
It sure could!
What did you do for 2 hours while your camera and tripod were just sitting there at Jordan Pond(my guess).
I was hanging out with my wife, so we just enjoyed the sunset together 😁 it was nice.
