    Incredible before and after here. I’ve never imagined using so many detailed, subtle edits, especially the multiple gradient filters applied. Thanks a bunch for such an entertaining deep dive!

  • @kemelinux
    @kemelinux 3 ปีที่แล้ว +260

    Instead of using a brush to mask your gradient filter you can use a luminance mask to only affect the lighter parts of your image… this is instant and gives a very clean result.

    • @opx4real
      @opx4real 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I still think its too hard to get a clean result with luminance masks on trees and complex edges without halos. Gradient is 1000% technically unnatural but does not appear so to the eye....in my uneducated opinion* That being said, it is super choppy in this video, for sure.

    Its nice to see progres in developing lightroom. When you were removing building from mask, in 2024 you just do that in few clicks - substract from mask, select sky, invert.
    Picture is still available, it was fun to edit picture with you ;)

    17:02 if you press shift, then linear gradient will be 100% vertical or horizontal. Useful on some photos.
    21:30 another good tip is to use opposite color for highlights (opposite from shadows), it is actually what you did but just for people who chose another color - chose the opposite color for highlights

    I have 2 folders for my image files. One folder where I sort the raw files in chronological order based on date + identifying number (this can be whatever and easily setup when downloaded from camera). And a separate folder for edited images, one folder for raw edits and one for exported PNGs. The edited images have the same name as the original so its easy to find them if I mess up. If I save multiple versions I just add a _2, _3 etc to the name. Works great for me.
