SKY REPLACEMENT in Photoshop for combining NIGHT SKY photos with difficult horizon AUTOMATICALLY

In this video I talk about combining night sky photos with difficult horizon and show an automatic way to blend Milky Way from a tracker like Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer with a ground shot using the new Sky Replacement feature in Adobe Photoshop 2021. It is by far the easiest solution for how to get a perfect mask around a tree and the result is quite amazing. Getting a perfect mask for difficult horizons like trees is one of the most tedious parts of processing nightscapes and the automatic sky replacement feature makes it so much easier because we can just take the mask that Photoshop calculated and apply it to one of our own layers.

[@zygmuntziokowski7877]

That seem easy! Thanks! Dziękuję

[@BR-uz9nj]

Very clever. Thanks for sharing.

[@bushcraftandastronomer.3775]

Your star tracker is your best item and seeing you talk alot about it in your videos make me even more happy I've got it! This little video was enjoyable to watch and learn from you! I've bought the skywatcher evostar 50ed guide scope and this little guide scope can be used as a little telescope for deep sky imaging and astrophotography it's pretty small and it feel quality so I have the 50ed guide scope and my 72ed ds pro all for astrophotography and I hope you do more videos on the star adventurer so I get the most from it. Hopefully next year will be better as 2020 is the year of covid-19 Sadly. Stay safe!!!

[@teigas84]

Great tips!

[@lynneroberts4854]

Great tutorial thank you. I agree with others it is a bit too fast.

[@kfacpa]

Wonderful thank you; just a bit too fast (for me anyway)

[@charakternik_]

Super metoda. Jednak między niebem a podłożem jest duża różnica w kontraście. Wiele darmowych wtyczek wykorzystujących luminosity masks radziło sobie z tym od dawna. Jestem ciekaw czy PS2021 ogarnie dużo trudniejsze zdjęcia wypluwając idealną maskę. Myślę, że warto poeksperymentować.

[@kamilkp]

No ciekawe ciekawe. Zawsze można wywołać z Lightrooma taką pomocniczą wersję zdjęcia z przesadzonym kontrastem w celu uzyskania dobrej maski. Pokazuję takie coś w poprzednim filmie o blendowaniu: ruclips.net/video/ZeGMMoXBNMA/видео.html

[@BenekXDDX]

Cool guide, but can u add polish lyrics ? I will be really grateful. This is a little bit too fast for me and generally my english isn’t good enough to keep up this rate :/

Hello Kamil,
why the detour via Sky replacement? Go to Select Sky. It's easier for me.
