Thanks for watching! :)
Idk why but when I heard his voice I thought of the fish from American dad
That is hilarious, I'll take it as a compliment! I love Klaus :)
YuriFineart thanks for the pin! 👍🏻😄
No, not even a little bit the same haha. Klaus is sounds steriotypical German.
I mean YuriFineart also sounds stereotypical German even though it's not such a strong accent ;)
Now I'm picturing a cartoon fish giving me a tutorial and speaking to me 😂
One thing that makes the image more grainy is that you have set pretty high sharpening and 0 (zero) masking. If you have zero masking, lightroom sharpens the whole image, even flat homogeneous surfaces. Click Alt-key and slide the masking higher to see what areas you want to aply the sharpening to, you would want it to sharpen only around the actual stars, not the sky area around the stars.
Morten Almkvist Sounds great. How do you tell where it’s sharpening the image.??
Just a "little" bit of saturation... +72! Like what?!
For people moaning about this - a digital camera grabs light data (from the sensor) and then the camera or raw converter program (LR in this case) applies a bunch of rules to display as an image which is just an interpretation of the raw data. In it self that doesn't look like what your eyes see (which is only the brains interpretation of light anyway - hence colour blindness). All Yuri has done he is changing the interpretation of this raw data, he hasn't added in extra data (which is what people think of as photoshopping). All he is doing is enabling the monitor to display the data that the camera actually captured, it is the data from the photograph. Personally I don't see it as cheating (but that is an opinion) and if you feel that the camera's interpretation of the light data (which is really the programmer's interpretation) is correct then so be it.
Robert Whittaker I don't think that this is cheating, but it sort of is and I understand people who say so. For me it is because of all these masks, like "lets put here some green, orange there...", it's like making rainbow out of green picture (by local masks)
You almost got it right, the idea is to make the image more visible to the human eye without ruining the color tone (that got butchered in this video) but some people enjoy false interpretations more than reality...
You created a new galaxy. Jelly Way :)
I still come back to this tutorial when I'm editing astro photos. Always super easy to follow along and the results are great!
I used this tutorial to edit the milky way shot I had. I drov eout to this state park and received a second degree sunburn. My camera batteries died, along with my laptop. This is important because my memory card was full. I only had 3 shots left. My photo looked like yours in the beginning. It's not as good as the professionals but I am super happy. You have no idea. This tutorial made the whole trip worth it. I cannot thank you enough! thank you thank you thank you
Another amazing tutorial, Yuri! Your work had been so inspiring to me and has taught me so much more about LR! I sincerely thank you for sharing all of your skillful techniques.
hey thank you so much, that's very motivating to hear! thanks for taking the time to watch these videos and I'm very happy that you find them interesting and even inspiring :)
YuriFineart, they are beyond inspiring! my editing has improved ten-fold since I began studying your tutorials. I cannot thank you enough!
You explained so many features of Lightroom with exceptional clarity. I am a new Lightroom user and I am greatly encouraged to try more adjustments. Thank you for a fine video.
Love it ..just need a clear night now
Hands down the best tutorial
You should have stopped editing at 02:50 . At that point it was really good -- cause it was no overdone. And seemed most realistic.
definitely turn very "Fake" towards the end of the Video. Not trying to discount the video but the natural lighting and look at the 2:50 mark was spot on in my opinion.
This is the most truly, accurate and trust worthing tutorial that I've ever seen in my whole entire life, THANK YOU!!!! ♥️🧡💜💛💚💙💗
I'm glad u said this was more about how to enhance a poor photograph rather than how to make a good photograph. Because there was so much modification done to this photo that I would even hesitate to call it a photograph after you were finished with it. But still, I learned some things from your tutorial that I could apply in my own work. Thanks.
+greenlight remember that this is a RUclips video that showcases the major tools and Sliders, it is much easier to understand, if I show it very clearly and over-the-top. I'm glad that you found something helpful for your editing though, I always suggest people to just take whatever they like from a video and disregard the rest
This is brilliant. I just happened to go out last night for some astrophotography and then boom up comes this video the next morning. You champion - looking forward to trying out these techniques on my photo soon!
+mcgarnacle21 haha, what a coincidence!
DeHaze works wonders on such photos
The before picture is exactly what I shot yesterday and I'm pleasantly surprised I saw this video
Astrophotography is closer to to a graphical picture than a photo
This is really gonna help me edit my old shots, thanks.
+Capt_Cutlass wonderful!
superb yuri , love the results you achieve from basic equipment , keep up the fantastic work , always look forward to your tutorials many thanks .
Very fine and inspaiering rendering
Thanks mate you made my photos way better
Thank you so much.
A useful tutorial for Lightroom beginners - well done.
always happy to hear
amazing tutorial. Really helpful. Thank you.
I'd have added more blacks, and maybe tried the Dehaze tool, but there are enough good ideas here that I hadn't thought about that I'll I keep it for later reference. :)
Always a pleasure to watch you playing with lightroom, thanks for all the tips you give!
thanks a lot :) I'm glad you're enjoying it!
Great video, I learned so much. Nice shot of Cassiopeia and the Andromeda Galaxy!
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I was actually wondering how to make my star photos pop using lightroom, since all I got looks exactly like the photo at the beginning! But now because of you, I know how to make its happen.👍 Thank you so much .
Thanks a ton for your efforts! You really helped me. I'm getting better at Lightroom thanks to you! Appreciated it and you should keep doing it. I believe that your videos help so many people with LR.
Hey that's very lovely of you to say! much appreciated and I'm glad you found it helpful!
wow amazing!!
Thank you. :)
Found this on Pinterest! So happy to learn from you, thanks for sharing! Liked+subscribed All!
Wonderful video, Thanks Yuri!!!!
Amazing job Yuri, I've followed your steps with my own twist and got so many great complements. Thank you!
Perfect. Thank you sir.
Thanks
Simply amazing
Thanks for the great tutorial, I really do appreciate they and enjoy all your videos.
Always enjoy your videos , thank you for taking the time to make them!!
+gfly3 well, thank you for taking the time to watch them :-)
You can add a couple of gradients and abuse sliders a little bit more.
Thank you so much for this!
This was awesome...I found your video by chance and glad I did. Your precise instructions are so easy to follow. Thank you for posting these...I subscribed to your channel and can't wait to watch them all. I always seemed to be so lost in LR. Thanks again!!
Cassiopeia more beautiful than ever
this is great tutorial . thanks to you mate
Nice tutorial. It's helpful to know what settings photos were taken at when viewing these tutorials, maybe you can add that info. in the future. Thanks again for all of the great videos!
It's stated right under the histogram at the top right. l ISO 3200 l 18mm l f 3,5 l 20 Secs l
Very helpful. Thank you ❤️❤️
incredible
Great stuff. Just getting started w Canon T6i and Lightroom
this helped me a lot man! thank you so much!
+Christian John Roudier Agcol great to hear!
great work, well done
Yuri. Fantastic tutorial. I''ve always wanted to try night sky photography but figured it would take more expensive equipment. Tripod, much bigger lenses and a better camera than my Nikon D3000. Maybe I still can.
+cyberwasp461 I'm sure your Nikon D3000 is more than capable of taking some awesome star pictures, this picture you see in the videos wasn't taken in the best conditions, I was in a quite remote spot a few days ago and the star photos turned out much better and clearer! Just go out and try it, doesn't have to be in the perfect spot!
Casiopea und Andromeda Galaxy! 👍
Totally awesome man!
Man, bravo! really helpful, thanks.
Thanks Yuri.
Супер!
Well explained Yuri. Nice work.
I believe this is too much processing and the result looks fake.
Its Cassiopeia, Perseus and Andromeda btw
pretty distinct results, only if the original RAW wasn't so full of digital noise :( maybe a slightly longer exposure with lower ISO but not too long where you would start to get star-trails would make for a less noisy overall exposure :D
+Morally Ambiguous yeah.. The only option is to get a better camera as if you want less noise, or better lens of course.
Or image averaging out of multiple photo's which is actually something that's done a lot in astrophotography and, assuming you've already got photoshop, won't cost you anything and give you even cleaner results. Just search "Image averaging in photoshop'.
brilliant love it
loved it man...ur awsum
Small request that I think would be awesome. If you could share the RAW file with us to practice as you go along. kinda learn the basics of lightroom while doing it helps so much. Even if it was Donate a Dollar or something for the RAW file I'd do it.
Nonetheless, amazing tutorial! thank you for the information!
I am currently thinking about making the RAW files of all of my edits available in some way, a lot of people have asked for that. Thanks for the feedback and I'm glad you've enjoyed :)
Awesome...
Hi, just found your video randomly on my news feed and decided to watch and was blown away! This is awesome! I haven't taken any star photography in several months, but I'm going to go find some of my shots and open them up in Lightroom and see what I can do! I've got a 7D Mark II and Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8, so the results /should/ be better, we'll see! Awesome stuff man, subbed, liked, looking forward to watching more of your guides!
+phoenix7289 hey thank you so much! Your camera and lens combo should definitely give you much more opportunity, but of course the conditions and light pollution and so on play a very big factor as well, I was in a quite secluded area a couple of days ago and the star pictures I took there turned out to be much clearer and much more visible than the one you see in this video.
Thank you
my whole life is a lie.
+Luminance Production just like this photo? :-)
YuriFineart why is this photo a lie? Lol
like all the retouchers :S
Awesome stuff!
thank you :)
Gratulation, da hast Du wirklich richtig viel aus einem Durschnittsbild gemacht. Ich bin mir nur nicht sicher, ob beim Splitt Toning die Wahl der Farbe Violett so optimal für die hellen Bereiche ist, denn das ist genau die Farbe von unerwünschten "Cromatic Aborations", die auch schwach im Bild an den weissen Farbrändern vertreten sind...
+Andreas Peters das ist durchaus interessant, daran dachte ich bisher gar nicht!
His voice is almost like mocking me 😂 but this is a good tutorial. Thank you!
you don't use a Light Polución Filter?
Nope, none used in this photo
Hi Yuri, thank you for another great guide and video. Always enjoyed your teachings and advices.
While I understand you usually introduce landscape-related videos, I would love to see your take on portraits or street's editing.
why do all of my sliders in lightroom only go to 100 but yours go way higher - for example your temperature slider?
Very nice tutorial, the first time I shoot stars with my old Canon I was really bad impressed, pictures are bad taken from the camera, only pp can bring you a good image. What program do you suggest to handle nef files? Lightroom is not free, nx-d is bad, raw therapee is complicated and not only Nikon related. It was so good Canon Digital Photo, easy and fast, I sold my Canon gear for Nikon but is so bad about software..
Dobra praca :-)
Great job!
Excellent Tutorial. Last year i clicked couple of images of stars but was wondering how to edit them, how to bring specific details. And after watching this video i figured out lot of things and finally edited my raw files. I wish to share them with you and receive some comments. On which email id should i mail them?
+Mayur Bhosle great! you can send me one or two pictures on Facebook if you want.
Bro which software u using foe editing? M new in phtography bro.. can u plz tell me thanks
Oh wow! I still use my 600D. I tried taking a star photos the other night but thought my old Rokinon 14mm F2.8 aperture was too dark even at a 30 second exposure to get a useable image.
What picture style were you using if you can remember?
amazing! a shitty pic turned into something totally interesting. Well done!
can someone tell me which version of lightroom this is
Cool
Did you use long exposure noise reduction when taking this photo? Also, could you do a video about the tonal curve? Its the one thing that still confuses me somewhat.
whic camer did u capture it??
Tip: watch this in 1.5x speed
Thank you Yuri, I enjoyed your video. Do you mind sharing your settings for the photo please? I would like to know what f-stop you used and shutter speed. I think you mention you used ISO 3200. Thank you 😊
Sure! I shot it a t ISO 3200, F3.5, 20s, 18mm with a Canon 18-55 IS II Lens & Canon 600D on a Manfrotto 055xPROB Tripod :)
YuriFineart thank you very much. I have learned a lot from you and enjoy your very detailed videos. Thank you Yuri
Can we capture milky way by using canon 80D or canon 600D?
how to show my Canon 200D RAW in Lightroom. plz help
tutorial with one breath
Can you plz tell me which settings you applied to capture this ?
18-55 Canon Kit Lens! 18mm/f:3.5/ ISO-3200/ 30sec exposure time!
@@dimakowahl wow...
Do you think this could also be done with Photoshop? I have the idea Photoshop handles filters in another way.
Bas Emmen Using the Camera RAW Filter in Ps CC will bring up the same tools that Lightroom uses. However, all of those tools are available in Photoshop, just named differently or used in different ways. If you open up a RAW file in Photoshop, it will open up a workspace very similar to this one with the same tools.
+Bas Emmen you could probably do the exact same with camera RAW in Photoshop, but certainly also with other filters and curves you could get a very similar look.
Hi Yuri
I enjoyed your video. I've taken some good star light photos and did some LR edits, but I will try some of your other techniques. Looks like some exciting possibilities!
Terrance
magic technology this fade people who seen this photo lol
what program is this ?
A great video. Thanks I'm learning lot just like the others by watching your video.
I'm curious...where did you take the photo? Also, I saw you exposed it for 20 seconds. If you had exposed it longer, would have gotten a not so boring photo to begin with? Just asking, not criticizing.
+Pritesh R. Patel thanks! If you expose much longer than 20s you'll start to see star trails at this focal length, meaning the stars turn into long exposure lines because of the earth rotation and movement. I took this in a rural area about 20km from the next city, the conditions were not perfect though.
are there any free alternatives to lightroom? I just spent all my saved money on my computer and spending 15 a month on lightroom is not a great option for me...
get a crack version
on phone its free:D
hello
how do I reduce the blurriness of the stars ?
I quite enjoy your accent
+dave koh thank you :)
11 minutes of a dude moving sliders around in Lightroom to see how it changes the photo. Thanks RUclips!
