Interesting subject Robert, I love the breath of subject matter you cover in your channel, These Post Processing tutorials are what i really love, the good thing is I don't have to remember them, if i need help i just come to your channel, thanks mate
Great tutorial video Robert! Very much like sky replacement, I think it is OK to use it from time to time (not for a portfolio image), but definitely a good technique to learn how to do. And you said it best, always more fun to go out and capture it when it's actually foggy out. But a very useful video on learning how to apply masks to achieve the effect that you are looking for! Great stuff mate. Hope you are doing well over there and keeping safe!
Thanks Paul - yeah, I'm much more liekly to use these techniques to enhance an image that's already foggy, rather than creating it from scratch. Thanks for watching mate. 😀
Great technique mate and the results look pretty good, as you say you cant beat real fog but sometimes you might just need to add that mood and feel to an image because its what was required for the project or client etc , even the great Ansel Adams processed his images in the dark room with dodging and burning, using the most modern available techniques available at the time , so i see no difference using the tools available to you , im sure Adams would be a Adobe ambassador if he was around today !
Thanks Lee - I couldn't agree more. I'd love to be able see what Ansel Adams would have done with modern software. I guess it will have to remain in our imagination though. Cheers for watching mate. 😀
Fantastic edit and on how you created it. But it’s so true, going out and being in the moment with the fog is waaay much more fun and I feel more rewarding. But trying to find fog is another video 🤪
I’m just not sure how to feel about this. It’s super cool what you can do, but the photo is no longer a photo, but graphic design. I like that you call it an image, not a photograph. I’m glad I waited for the end of the video to hear you say you would rather have the fog and would not put this in your portfolio. I still haven’t even so much as cropped any of my photos (since my film, Pentax iQZoom days), so I’m still hesitant to even go into Lightroom. I feel like some of them should be “enhanced” because the camera (and usually my skill with it) weren’t giving me the light and the colors I remember. Great video, Robert.
Well I am a graphic designer Mary! 😀 I know post-processing of this kind can divide opinions. Personally I'm comfortable using all tools available to enchance the photo that I've captured, but 99% of the time, I choose not to go as far as I have demonstrated in this tutorial. I'm a member of a photography society and we often have 'creative' category competitions where this kind of thing might be more applicable. That said, however, the process in this video mostly just involved brightening and fading areas of the image - tools available even back in the days of the dark room with dodging and burning. So although the final image might be quite different from the one captured in camera, the processing techniques aren't really that special. You could argue that the brushed mist effect is adding texture that didn't exist though, I suppose. Anyway, thanks for watching and for the feedback. Always good to have these discussions. 😀
There was a time when cameras were an outrage too. As I've said in many of my videos - I think the important thing is not to intentionally deceive people with the technology available. Thanks for watching.
Many thanks Robert, brilliant tutorial explained extremely well.
Great, I'm glad it was useful to you Steve. Thanks for watching. 😊

Thanks Tony, I really appreciate that. And yes, that's the beauty of RUclips - you can just dip in and out when necessary. 😊

How about using a depth map as a base plus other gradient and radial filters?
Absolutely Paul - this is what worked for me, but as ever, there are so many ways to work in Photoshop. Thanks for watching.
Very Educative. Thanks.
Glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching. 😊
Subscribed. Nice video. Keep it up.
That's great, many thanks. 😊

Cheers mate. When you can't make it, gotta fake it! I'll be back out trying to find the real thing soon though! 😊
I think that was a fantastic edit mate, again like you said id prefer fog on the day but you cant always get what you want.
Thanks Jeremy. I suppose it's like anything - it wouldn't be special if we had it all the time. 😊
WoW! Amazing!!!!!💖💖💖💖💖
Thanks. 😊
What tripod are you using?
I have a few, but in this video it's a 3Legged Thing Winston. 😊
nice. Ill just wait for a fogging day tho.
You can't beat the real thing. 👍
@@Robert-Bishop Facts! But I had it on my mind and you helped me decide to wait. Thank you sir !
perfect!
Many thanks. 😊

I remember when this fake stuff was an outrage. Poor Milly Vanilly dead for nothing

Fake is fake. It’s a lie. AI and all this fakery is going to destroy truth. I don’t want any part of that.
