    Great tips Mads. One thing to add before editing a photo is to have the monitor colour calibrated. It helps in so many ways and stops many mistakes before you make them.

    • @MadsPeterIversen

      It does indeed! I covered it in one of my older videos, but you're absolutely right many mistakes can be avoided having a proper calibrated monitor.

    Thanks for the tips on how to remove haloes Mads. I've been going through some old photos taken with an early digital camera. There are some nice images of places I know I'll never visit again. I've had to do quite a lot of editing to try to bring out the best in them. In the process the haloes have appeared. This works to fix them so I'm most grateful.

    My friend is a Chef, he loves cell phone photography, combined with the worst editing app, and a strange editing technique where he simply puts 4 sliders to max, these are vibrance saturation, contrast and and sharpening...... he then prints them, he does have a decent printer, but we all know turds are not polishable, but he then places the eye watering abstract headache, into a £2 picture frame.... and the hotel he works lets him hand 3 on 1 piece of the restaurant wall, and he sells 3 every week now, for no less than £40 a photo, and as much as £350 has been paid.
    This is 100% true, and I think he is a genius, as it was a bet to begin with, as he said people who eat in the restaurant are snobs, and look down their nose at everyone who works there, but also have a taste in anything that matches their personality, first taken advantage of by top chefs who throw food at the plate and serve it up for 100's of dollars, and said give me that little 4 ft square space of wall, and i'll prove that shit can be sold to those who have money to burn, you just need to place it near them.... and so he did, now people return to see Windermere and Grasmere looking like a psychedelic train wreck, with giant pixels sharpened it's bizarre, but he was 100% correct. He said he would do it for a living, and quite his job, but he needs the job to sell them ha ha.

      I am going to make a negative post about this guy Mads video. Your post is the example that I will use why I dislike videos this Mads guy is doing, and not just him but people who think they know photography better than everyone else and think they are teachers. People should shoot what they like and forget the rules and "mistakes" Mads and these other master web "teachers" are trying to force on people.

    Photography is not always about reflecting reality, rather, like any other art form, about articulating something about reality (inner and outer). Therefore, the notion of ‘mistakes’ is often a misleading one. Knowing what one can do to articulate that ‘something’ is far more central to the artistic act than technique. The latter is only necessary in as much as it allows us to become aware of the possibilities of articulation. But should never be mistaken for the articulation itself. That is, for the art.

    Very interesting Mads. Like a lot of people here I see many of the mistakes I've made and some I probably still do. For a couple of them I think it's more style and although I still see over crunchy HDR images on Flickr which I don't like personally the photographer has every right to edit the photo as they want - but like you said it should be intentional not inadvertent. respect to those who were brave enough to allow their photos to be used.

    Agree with your points, well explained. I also liked your talk on photography values very much. I am going to buy at least one of your eBooks and I am considering your course on Photoshop . That has to wait until I am clear of difficulties I am dealing with at present. For now I relax a little by watching your excellent vlogs and images while sitting up in bed with my iPad at night. About to watch one about night scapes in Copenhagen. Visited there when researching my Danish forbears.😊

    I often use vignettes, but rather than the vignette slider, I use a radial filter. Sometimes, more than one, and sometimes inverted. That way I can highlight the specific area I want to draw attention to, which is often off-center. I also use that vignettes or highlights subtly. I feel the vignette should draw attention to the subject, not to itself.
    Re the image at 8:50: I think that's low-lying backlit mist in the foothills, not haloing. But the other high-halo images could have resulted from over-sharpening and too high saturation. Those are habits I've had to wean myself away from.

    There's actually an easier and more effective method of getting rid of haloes and white line borders caused by sharpening etc on high contrast transitions. Rather than using the clone tool, which I used to use, instead use the blur tool, with a quite fine brush, often just of a few pixels. The blur tool is a massively under-used tool. You can use it to blur harsh out of focus backgrounds and a 1001 other touch up processes. You need to experiment with different strengths. I can be the most subtle tool. In reality rather than being actually a blur tool, it is an undo sharpening tool. It doesn't smudge, it just reverses sharpening.

Definitely one the big takeaways from your course was respecting the light and its something I now more conscious of and also to approach my edits from a position of subtlety. I know I have said it before but your course was a real game changer for me

    As I'm looking at my screen, to my right on my second monitor is my screensaver, a picture which won a keenly contested competition a few years back. Oops... But fortunately, I already knew that and I keep it there as a reminder of what not to do. It's so difficult though, because the demand is for impactful images particularly on social media and in club-level competitions. It's often a case of, what do you do to a landscape image so it can compete with that nature picture of an Eagle tearing at it's prey (nailed onto a piece of wood of course) So it is so tempting to just push the sliders ever further to the right and then you have them all.

Anyway, enjoyed the video. I look forward to your response.

    Good advice. I will look more on your videos. My problem is that I photograph woodlands mostly in BW but seldom. I’m satisfied just to get out nowadays. I have forgotten a lot about adjustment in PS. I have Fuji X-Pro1 and X-T1 and Nikon D700 but I’m in a process of upgrading my Nikon System to D850 and replace some lenses that have bad performance at 45 Mpix. My D300 broke down after 13 years use. So I'm not sure if I am the correct person to take your PS course. My computer have Win 7 and I'm going to lose my license when I upgrade to Win 10 so I’m looking for alternatives to PS and LR. I have had a lot of white lines in high contrast areas in my Panasonic LX3 and LX5 so your advice helped me. I thought that was caused of the small sensor.

    Do you go back in your history and re-edit with a new eye very often?

      Very often no, but it's certainly something I do yes :)

      I've just started an annual review process. With things getting busier I might make it bi annually. It reveals so much. I found loads of gold in my files I'd ignored as they didn't meet my aesthetic / I didn't know how to edit it well / I didn't appreciate how well it told a story as I'd judged it in bad form on ingest.

    Nice, but we didn’t need 27 examples of halos, and you then picked a image that was not too bad, odd. It’s scary how many people accept strong saturation these days.

    I think that his light brightness opinions are just opinions and he probably has 100s of photos that have the mistakes he is saying.
