Nice video and information Richard! Thanks! For my part, I use Silver Efex 3.0 in the NIK Collection, which gives many opportunities to mix the "boring" photo with. Using the blend mode "Luminosity" also reproduces the colors from the photo. There is an incredible amount to be able to experiment with. I really agree that a boring photo can be transformed into something extra ordinary :-)
My pictures have changed since I've watched your videos. My histograms look like yours, leaning left (as do I). It's a whole new style. Could you do all that dodging using the brush and intersecting with a luminance range? For fun, I removed the bridge from your pic using the remove tool. Perfect, like it wasn't there.
The only technique is to take a picture in a good light in the first place, i cannot unsee those unnatural burns. It will help if the landscape is interesting as well
Hello Richard, great work, but: you have already converted your photo to black and white when you show it to the viewer at minute 1:09, but not in Camera Raw, as the profile is still set to ‘Colour’. How and where did you convert it to black and white and was there any editing before camera raw?
Hi there, yes it was converted to black and white in Photoshop. I have other videos explaining the full process from colour to black and white and then to fine art ☺️. Thanks for noticing and thank you for watching ☺️

Thanks for the comment. I have silver Efex 3.0 also and sometimes use it. Thanks for watching 😊
great editing...I usually start by converting to BW using either a red, blue or green filter and blending those together first..
Great choice 😊 must try that . Thanks for watching ☺️
Thank you very much
You're most welcome 😊
Amazing ! Can you make B&W fine art on Street photo / Urban landscape. Thanks
Hi there, yes you can ☺️ thanks for watching the video 😊
Hi Richard...what ND filters are you using including the filter holder?
Hi there, I'm currently trying out newly purchased K&F magnetic filters ☺️
I also have BENRO filter holder and glass square ND 10 and ND 6 stops ☺️

Why not using a luminance mask instead of so many radial gradients?
Hi there, Yes i do use luminance mask also but not all the time. Thanks for the comment 😊
@RichardBrockwell-hr1so Very nice final image indeed using that kind of dodge&burn!
Thanks so much 😊
So you are a photoshop whizz. I am a photographer.
No Photoshop whizz, just editing like all photographers do as we shoot in RAW, and raw files need to be edited 😊
Thanks for the comment 😊
