Tremendously useful. As a beginner to photoshop, and being older, I welcome REALLY basic and brief videos that cover just one small topic.
I'm glad it was helpful
Love your stuff Colin. Thanks mate!
Thankyou Colin.I am learning so much from you. Sadly cannot take everything in, however I do remember the basic idea and then when I want to know how do anything I look it up. Have everything bookmarked!!!!
Written steps are coming, I post those on PhotoshopCAFE.com for most of my tuts
Great stuff as always Colin, many thanks.
Fantastic tips, Colin!
Great tutorial. Lots of new things I was never aware of. Thanks!
fantastic as usual so so grateful for your mentoring and teaching
Every time I watch one of your videos I learn something new. Thanks for what you do.
Brilliant, Thank you!
Awesome video as usual thank you so much!!
Very helpful!!! Thank you for sharing.
very cool never thought to do it this way thanks
Really nice tutorial, Colin. Thank you!
Thanks Colin, that was really useful. Up to now I've always bracketed exposures and merged to HDR for the best balance between sky and foreground, which can result in weirdness in the blended result due to movement of the branches. This eliminates that problem at a stroke. Thanks again.
Thank you! I liked this video
How many years have I been using Photoshop and I have never noticed the Density slider for masking! Tremendously helpful (as your videos always are!)
That was cool! Thanks!
This was a revelation for me! Thanks so much for posting this.
Very useful thank you
Thank you!!! You are the best instructor I like the highlights and it is very easy to tag along!
Thank you. Helps a lot.
fantastic!!!!
Awesome Colin. Maximising an image is why I’m here today!
Great to see you here, thanks
This is terrific! Thank you, Colin.
Thanks
I use Lightroom before bringing my photo into Photoshop, so this was wonderful. Thank you Colin!!
Glad it was helpful
Wonderful tutorial liked how you sample color for a segment to match the overall cloud area inside selection (top right corner of blue). Thank you BTW, by the photo it looks like the island of Kauai. Its always my favorite go-to island.
Thank you! Good tip that I can use in my real estate photography... probably other areas also!
Always learn something new: Select > Similar ! That's a good one!
Yeah, its a useful tool
This workflow is very useful. I may apply it to a pair of HDR image RAW files instead of combining them in Photo Merge. I think this technique gives me more control and opportunity to finesse the light available in a pair of images.
Well done - slow enough to understand! Thanks
thanks for sharing very good video
Very Good Colin learn't something there. Thank you
Im glad!
great one, thx !!
Your'e welcome
Beautiful
Thanks
excellent
It was very helpful. Didn't know that there was a sky button in the selection tab.
It gets overshadowed by sky replacement
I picked up quite a few new tricks here (mask density being one of them) and one important lesson: getting back to layer merging. With so many AI tools in PS or like Skylum stuff, I forget I don't have to do everything one one layer...thank you.
AI stuff is great, also fun to bust out the manual editing sometimes
Dear Colin Smith
Today I learned another technique that combines a light room with Photoshop.
I did the training and it turned out perfect.
I would like to thank you for sharing and mentoring. You're just wonderful, I really appreciate that.
With feelings of respect and appreciation

Nice!
In my view, adding that "bit of blue" back into the almost-final picture was genius - thanks for that particular insight!
Glad to help
Wow!!!
Question: what's the difference between "density" and "opacity"? Seems like they do a very similar job (or achieve the same effect?)
Opacity affects the whole layer, density only affects the mask
Would it be possible to merge the copy and the original in LR and get a good blend?
you could, but it would look like a faux HDR and not as natural
Hi Colin, just wondering if you could have edited the two photos in Lr (one for the sky and the other for the foreground) then merged the two photos in Lr? Would that have worked also?
As in HDR? If I was going to do that, I’d just push shadows all the way and highlights the other way and called it a day. It won’t get the crisp clean result you see in the after image
Unless you are using bracketed shots there is no advantage in using HDR. There’s also a good chance the metadata won’t let you merge to HDR anyway from the same photo
First take a HDR photo, second stack those 3 images, third done. so easy
And if you can't time-travel and take an HDR photo? Here is the tutorial for you.
If you can, I have already made tons of HDR tutorials...
For over 10 years.
Lots of good stuff here, I'd really love you to do a tutorial on the magic wand tool. 👍
Not a bad idea actually
Norisburger.
Why not selecting the sky first in LRC, applying the changes you set on the virtual copy, then se,etc the sky, invert and do the adjustments to the foreground?
Because sky replacement in LR doesn’t always get a perfect mask, especially with trees. and you would still need to fix the top right sky anyway. Remember my goal isn’t to fix my photo, it’s to create a tutorial. This can be used on other types of images too
Thanks
Why didn’t you use luminosity masks?
Because that would be a different tutorial, which I have already done
@@photoshopcafe ah,I see. It was good to see a different method of blending though 👍
@@colingrainger2578 There is another reason too, a RAW file contains more dynamic range, so you couldn't pull as much detail from the sky using corves (in Photoshop), you would have to be in a raw converter such as LR or ACR. Technically you could do luminosity masking in there, but that's a completely different approach
Does this simply imply that Select Sky in both Lightroom and Photoshop with the same reduction of highlights/exposure doesn’t work well? Why go to this trouble?
The mask in Lightroom / ACR wasn’t good enough, and I can’t get the dynamic range in photoshop because you aren’t adjusting directly on a raw file. I could actually do this in seconds if I wasn’t teaching. Dupe, adjust (don’t forget we are also opening the shadows) open in Ps, select sky, mask done. Not very hard really
Cool. I can’t stand the overlap of the LR sky mask!
Why not just use masks in LR - all within one image?
