You used the words intimidated and scared regarding the tone curve. This was definitely me until watching this video. I have watched numerous videos on this subject but yours blows them all away. This was an incredible video that explains it in a way that made perfect sense to me. Twenty minutes that have taken me from confusion to almost fully understanding the tone curve. Thank you Terry.
Some people were just "born to teach"... Congrats! It's simply wonderful to see how easy it is for you to share your knowledge and be as clear as pure water. 👌👌👌
I am a retiree who has decided to take up photography as a hobby. I thought I should take life easy in retirement. But I found myself taking notes and watching most of your clips twice to get a hang of the things you described. Back to those college days again☺☺☺.
I was waiting for something to finish, and started looking at this tone curve tutorial on my mobile. There are so many ways to adjust colours in LHR, I didn't expect to learn much from it. Boy, was I mistaken! Thanks for yet another use of masks, allowing me to better adjust colours of either subjects or backgrounds where necessary.
A great introduction to tone curves. Well thought out and illustrated, especially when combined with masking. The key to using all these tools is understanding how they work, which is what you have done. I do like the idea of using a brush over the whole image and then the amount slider for fine control is a great idea; I don't think I have seen that illustrated elsewhere.
Sir your teaching style is very good!! I cant wait until I can own my R7 in 2 weeks! Can finally start taking pics and then begin using Lightroom in person trying to apply some of these great techniques I've seen from your videos! THANK YOU!
I am finding Lightroom classic very frustrating, if I select a subject mask, I have to spend an age subtracting the space between a birds legs, or rocks at the side . Additionally if using auto sync on a series of bird in flight shots, the mask is in a different place at the end of the series ie. the adjustments I make on the bird in the first shot are made somewhere in the bushes to the side of the bird in the last shot! Thanks for the video, I enjoyed your teaching style..
Hi Terry, a couple of minutes in, when describing the colour wheel and the blending of the 3 primaries, you state B+R=C and B+G=M. I'm pretty sure that's the wrong way around, i.e. B+R=M and B+G=C?
I think there is a need for both. This video to more about taking one way and breaking it down to better understand how it works. Thanks for watching Owen.

WhooHoo! That’s what I was going for Alan. Thanks for watching.
The term “Tone Curve” comes from the Latin “Whatius The Hellius Is Thisius” 🤔
Nice job explaining it. 👍😎
This would have to be the best tutorial I've watched on Tone Curve.
Awesome, thank you.
Thanks, Terry. I’ve never heard anyone explain the tone curve as clearly as you did in this video. Great video!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching James!

Thanks for watching. It's fun to learn new things at any age. Keep it up!
Me to sort of. I'm finally off the automatic mode!
I admire your courage. Don't even know where to start. Had better stick to automatic 'for the time being'

Congrats Ron, you’re taking control!
Thank you Terry for this video. It really did help me understand the tone curve much better, and using the tone curve to make the RGB changes.
Excellent, Thanks for watching.
You did it again - Now I look forward to working with that feature rather than ignoring it because I didn’t understand it. You’re the best.
Ha, thanks Tom.
Another Excellent Tutorial… Thanks 🙏
My pleasure! Thanks for watching.

Hi Vickie, that is so great to hear. Glad its working for you.

Keep at it, or check out my series on Photoshop - you might find that easier.
Hi Terry, a couple of minutes in, when describing the colour wheel and the blending of the 3 primaries, you state B+R=C and B+G=M. I'm pretty sure that's the wrong way around, i.e. B+R=M and B+G=C?
You are correct I made a verbal error there. Thanks for catching it.
Thank youu thank youu thank youu thank youu thank youu 🫣
You’re welcome 😊 Welcome! I'm glad it helps.
Do you have lightroom presets for sale?
Thanks for asking. Yes, I do. Here is the link to my BW and Wildlife brushes: bit.ly/48vlpbG
Seems to me that using point color is easier and better. Do you disagree?
