Useful tips especially the avoidance of over processing. Snapshots are really useful as a way of checking if anything has gone too far by going back to a previous snapshot to compare
Thanks for the very informative video Could you do one just for the initial conversion from RAW in develop for the steps before individual tweaks are applied. I dont think I am doing this first initial step very well before I go into local adjustments
Sound advice. A lot of processed images tend to look unnatural and almost garish, and overprocessing is the reason why. Moderation is always better than excess.
I was surprised that you didn't mention the option of selecting and masking out the sky (with mask AI or copying the mask from sky swap AI) in the image where you were brightening the foreground while trying to retain contrast in the sky.
Correct. I wondered about that too as it would be easier, particularly since the sly and the foreground were well defined and separated. I certainly would do it that way.
On1, to me, is a very big program, with lots of variables. I appreciate these instructional videos, they help a lot. Thank you.
You're very welcome!

Totally agree. Sometimes it's really easy to go overboard.
Brilliant software, much better than LR and easy to use. My only niggle is that i find the zoom in to be a little laggy on my M2/8GB ram.

That's a great way to go about it, if you're using mask AI for local adjustments - modify the feathering of the mask to ensure the edges are blended
