So it does beg the question of what's the point in going to 30 Rock for example, timed at sunset, when you can basically take a day shot and digitally alter it to look like you were there at the perfect time for sunset.

You are amazing and I love your clear British accent!!!🥰

[@matti.seppanen]

Absolutely amazing work Mark! Love your way of teaching things and also your product reviews

[@GetBusyLiving]

I love turning day images to dusk or dark and this brilliant tutorial has given me a bunch of new techniques to use - thanks so much Mark, I really enjoy your channel. Cheers!

[@JohanSchmidt]

Incredible

[@ruggeropoggianella5451]

Thank you Mark, very very useful and very clear tutorial indeed. Thanks for sharing

[@robertshank3442]

Creatively amazing. Somehow this makes me feel slightly ill. I want to learn photography. This seems more of a way to create something for a marketing need or request. Who’s this said, You’re are an amazing creator and photographer with off the chart skill set.

Great playing with masks, very helpful tutorial. I like the way u explain 👍

[@pcbeachouse]

Nice expression of light. Who doesn’t like curves?

[@tylermerritt6370]

I never knew what the intersect function was for masks. It looks so useful!

[@ArminHirmer]

pretty neat

[@stuartmacleod405]

Oh man! I'm so impressed and inspired by this that I barely care that I've just realised I know almost nothing about Lightroom! Thought I did. Don't. 😂 Immediate subscribe

Very cool tutorial, thank you :) I'm not 100% convinced by the horizon glow, but the rest is on point.

Intresting. I loved.

[@timothymoore3218]

Excellent! Is there a way you would suggest to perhaps add some lights being on in some of the windows?

[@samdub]

Incredible, thank you!

[@Nefedov.D]

Отлично 👌

[@pathfindercod4638]

AWESOME video, ty! wow wow wow

[@mortenjensen2457]

So good!

[@CarloCretaro]

Cracking tutorial!

[@joelbarto1103]

I believe you can use the point color tool in masks.

[@shawis71]

Beautiful work,,, is this shot on Fuji x ?

[@1duesy]

Fabulous tutorial!! Is it possible to add vehicle and traffic lights in the night scene that were not visible daytime?

[@MisterDavidH]

I need to practice using your video. I ran into some roadblocks when I lightened the mask in the early stages. I did not rceive the same results you did. I am missing something so going to try again tomorrow.

[@gharawala]

super edit 👌👌🌹🌹

[@UniiYpc]

So how do I do all this wonderful editing on LR Mobile ?

[@MyFavoriteVegan]

Can any of this be done with Lightroom Mobile?

[@pedramahmadi6639]

Woow😮😮❤❤

[@maximilian4171]

I dont think the intersection feature as well as the combination of radial gradient and brush gradient is available in LR mobile

[@attilad66]

Hey. by the second mask (sky) my curve stays as it was for the ground... why is not resetting the curve to 0 ?

[@JSTUPRODUCTIONS]

Yeah wow this did not work at all for my image. Yikes

[@HGKramm]

All windows in the buildings are dark 😕

[@NPC_averagemale003]

This looks amazing due to contrast but is unrealistic. A better way would be to take the shot at dusk, dawn, midnight and comp them.

[@nickatnite16]

I can see from the comments,a lot of people loved this, i feel it doesn't look natural. The editing took skills,no doubt,but it just doesn't look natural

[@roderashe]

Doesn’t have to look natural. It’s art. If it’s not your cup of tea that’s ok.

[@DarrenRussinger]

WOW!

[@GloriaLiu.]

Straight to the point, and WOWW you are a magician!

[@johnoneill7962]

Superb - thank you

[@microminstrel]

good stuff, man!
