Editing a Bird photo: Easy step-by-step Tutorial
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 июл 2024
- This is an example of a very natural editing style for bird photography, which doesn't aim to alter the scene but only to enhance its aspect as it was originally.
These are the steps I follow for the post-processing of most of my wildlife photos, although the "intensity" will be different depending on the starting point. This was a pretty good photo to start with, so it didn't require much work.
Post-processing was performed only using Lightroom Classic.

01:14 Photo Analysis
03:03 Cropping
05:19 Denoise
06:34 General adjustments
09:19 Selective Adjustments
15:33 The final edit

Very good! Like your workflow and choice of nature style
Superb video! I watched it with curiosity! Greetings from a Swedish youtuber! 🇸🇪
Thank you for watching Daniel! Good luck with your YT channel 😊
Simple and effective way of LR editing in a friendly manner. Thank you.
Glad it is helpful 🤗
Clear and easy to folllow. Great job. Love your energy.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Well done. Liked and subscribed. 👍 I have had LR6 on my computer for more than 10 years until my computer died recently. Now I have a monthly subscription to LRC and it is like learning all over again. Lots to learn but videos like this are very helpful. Love your enthusiasm.
Enjoy the learning! It's fun :)
Love it!
glad you enjoyed it!
Really loved this - it really gave me reassurance over some of my editing techniques that I have picked up being self taught, but also taught me a couple of new ways of doing things. Thank you and keep it up.😊
Thanks so much for the feedback! I'm glad to hear ☺️
great tutorial, grazie mille Chiara!
I recently started taking photos of surrounding birds and squirrels.
Once I have narrowed down my selection, I will apply your tips in Lightroom!
Let me know how it goes! ☺️
Loved it. Thankyou.
Glad you enjoyed it!
First time viewer. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Very helpful and clear. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video, and what a beautiful photograph!
Thanks for the feedback 🤩
Excellent tutorial Chiara! My workflow is very similar to yours. I tend to try Topaz AI before LR denoise as I like having more control but sometimes Topaz just can't get it right though. Then I go back to LR and try again. I haven't had a chance to use the point colour tool yet as I've only just upgraded but I will check it out!
Learnt a lot. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Looking for more such videos. Subscribed.
Thanks so much! Next video will be again an editing one :) Hope to upload in the next couple of weeks!
Thank you. That was very helpful & I enjoyed your explanations. 😊👌
Thanks for the feedback! :)
I liked your editing techniques which sometimes other edits tend to over do. Many thanks. Subscribed
I am thinking the same thing! Simple!
thanks so much for the feedback!
Great video Chiara! My workflow is very similar to yours but for the masks I use Photoshop because the version of Lr doesn't have this option
Nice job! I got a few good tips!
Glad to hear it!🤩
Great video.
Thanks for the feedback 🤩
I know you are just getting started, but you really need to upgrade your audio. I think you find this will improve your views, I really enjoy your story, wish I had the guts to quit my job when I was young to follow my dreams . Keep the good work.
Hey, appreciate the feedback! I was aware of it but unfortunately my mic cable broke so had to record part of it via the laptop mic. Issue has been sorted for next video ;)
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it :)
Very nice explanation, thank you for this wonderful effort. But I edit photos using Photoshop because it has the feature of removing unwanted blemishes. Photoshop also has the same features as Lightroom. I really benefited from this explanation. Finally, thank you again for your wonderful effort.
Of course all that has been done here can also be performed in Photoshop. I prefer Lightroom as it is much leaner and user-friendly :) Photoshop has so many other features that are not really needed for a photographers. Anyway removal of stuff can be done also in LR, although for big manipulations it is definitely not working well as PS.
Hi, do you think it is easier to precisely correct photos for example adding bokeh or sharpening using Apple Pencil with iPad than using trackpad on MacBook ? I am shooting wildlife birds photos
Yess. I enjoyed the editing video. Could we have more sometime, please?
Next one is coming up ;)
Very nice!!!👍👍👍
Thank you so much! 🐦☺
Pls do more vides on how to masking for editing. It will be better if you can show clearly on the screen which tool bar you are moving. Thanks
thanks, I have a new tutorial video to be uploaded in the upcoming weeks :)
Hi Chiara, how to you go from the modified photo to the original ? What is the keyboard shortcut ?
It is just \
:)
Hi Chiara our editing is very similar, but one thing I noticed you leave the profile on Adobe Colour, personally I don't like this profile and always change it to the Canon profiles I just think colours look so much better.
Hey Tony, I also use the Canon profiles. In this case as the tutorial was already quite long and already with lots of info I preferred to leave it as default not to overload beginners 👍
@@chiaratalia_wild good idea and not everybody shoots Canon 🙂
do you know if they also have a fujifilm profile? I have worked mostly with Capture One so far
It's just my opinion, but everybody is just creating images not photographs.
I am not sure I fully understand what do you mean. Do you mind elaborating further? 🙂
It goes back to the days of Ansel Adams. @@chiaratalia_wild He was a master at dodging and burning all his photos. Where we do it with photoshop he was using a homemade contraption to do it. The Old purest have always said a true photograph never gets manipulated, that once you do you are creating image art. I guess I am purest. I hate to see people get into photography and get frustrated and give up when their photos don't look like the others they see. They never learned that all the photos they see have been manipulated in software and don't come out of the camera that way. That is why in my opinion I say it becomes an image instead of a photograph. but to each his own not judging.
i literally learned nothing ty
Oh well, you're welcome anyway! :D
