Thanks for stopping by.
There will be folk tales that tell of a Photoshop legend... that legend Glyn, will be you.
Hey Glyn, pleaaaase never stopp doing these tut`s they're the best!!
Watched this tutorial 4 times in 24 hours to get the techniques right. Really appreciate the way you teach.
Probably the best selection video I've seen yet. Good job Glyn, thanks.
I just found your site on RUclips! I am ecstatic that finally, I found a superb procedure to replace a sky no matter what is on the horizon, be it trees with open branches or very uneven mountains, etc. I did make some personal adjustments which fit my personal workflow such as using "blend if." Your video was very easy to follow, the instructions were in logical order and clearly stated. Obviously, it did take me several tries and pausing your video as I practiced replacing skies, but now I feel very comfortable. I subscribed and look forward to your other instructional videos.
I have been struggling with only applying a layer style to one particular part of an image forever! Oh the joy, cheers Glyn.
Fantastic tutorial Glyn...there are no bounds to your knowledge of PS!
Thanks so much for sharing.

PHOTOSHOP TUTORIAL: Selection Trick for adding New Sky
love watching your videos! always learning something new! Thanks!
Victoria Winningham Thanks for tuning in :)
Brilliant stuff as usual, Glyn. But i do have one question: Was there a reason why you made the mask on the sky layer, rather than adding it to the backround layer and moving your new sky underneath? (I'm just curious as to why you did it that way around!). Thanks.
Mark Redshaw Cheers mate. Re the sky...no secret reason or anything like that but rather just how I chose to do it ;)
Cheers Glyn.
Thanks for this one, glyn... the tip for using white and black in overlay mode on the channel mixer was REALLY useful. Hadn't occurred to me.
Great tutorial. Very helpful. Thank you.
Great tutorial.........complex selections can definitely be difficult at times, nice to see another way of dealing with fringing problems....well done, very informative video with clean and concise explanations. Good job mate !
Once again very smart tricks to add to the tool box. Thanks for sharing.
Brilliant tutorial. Love your delivery and straight forward explanations. No brainer to subscribe BOOM! Many thanks
Thank you for using a photo sent in by a subscriber. This showed how to fix a problem that is often encountered by those of us without professional-grade camera equipment. Keep up the good work!
Great technique. Can't wait to try it out. TY.
Really useful Glyn! Learned shedloads from that 24mins! Cheers :)
Loved this video tutorial. Tried it all with a shot I took on the Riverwalk in San Antonio. I found that at the end, using the Linear blend did the best but everything else was spot on. Nice work.
Brilliant, so its a big 10 for Glyn
Great tutorial. Thanks for the help!
Wow. A great tutorial. Couldn't take my eyes off of it. Thank-You.
Thats a very useful technique Glyn, many thnaks
Thank you!!! This one saved me tons of time!
Thanks Glyn for another great tutorial podcast. I will be getting out a few problem landscape images and using your advice.
Great hints in this one! Keep up the good work, mate!
So far I have watched about 30 to 40 of your videos and in most of them I have picked up a new trick that I was able to put to use right away in my workflow. In this one: using the brush in soft light mode for the filter and having the layer style as a layer. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
You're very welcome
I have been trying to figure this one out for years. This is the best technique I have ever seen. Thanks so much. You now have a new subscriber.
Really excellent and I have learnt a lot......thank you !!

HUGE FAN
just what I was looking for brill tutorial Glyn .... I also go round taking stock pics of skies you need to here in grey old UK lol...thnx
Terrific!
Outstanding tutorial! I have tried a couple AI programs but they just can't do trees the way your tutorial and approach can! Love your channel and cheers!
Great tutorial, thanks :-)
Thanks for this.
Sure thing
Awesome!
How do I make my color range tool look like yours? When I open my tool and go to the drop down menu and select mid tones, shadows or highlights I am also given two sliders to adjust. Should I leave them at 0 or move them all the way up to 100?
finally some technique which little easy and less consuming to do.....thanks for that and in future if u have any plane to show us some cool way to do low exposer art effect in Photoshop cc its going to be real help....
Super helpful video Glyn!
Wes Pettus Glad you like it 👍🏻
What a great lesson. Question for you. At the 5:19 position, once you have the midtone and shadow channels saved, would it better to make a "Calculation" using the "Add" command and just join the two saved channels?
Thank you!
Muito bom, obrigado.
BTW love your logo very smart
Hi, Glyn -- I am just catching up with some of your older tutorials, so I apologize for the delay in getting this question to you: If you had applied the duplicate-with-Multiply-and-Layer-Mask technique to the Background layer at the beginning -- rather than at the end -- of your workflow, would it not have retrieved more of those almost-disconnected, almost-blown-out branch tips and leaves from that troublesome tree on the left?
Curiously (if Tardily),
Lórien
Thanks for the tutorial does this method work for hair that has a different color with the hair different colors also of background? Most tutorials I see are of removing it from a one color background.
hi, Glyn, whats ur opinion abt topaz remask
glyn I love ur work very much would u have considered get a online tutorial ? cofcoz paid tutorial thanks
Thank you
As always, thanks for sharing. Quick question: Why not start to create the Sky selection using Color_Range_Highlights instead of Midtones plus Shadows?
I always have trouble with the leaf color after making selections like the above, but this tutorial has helped me the most.
That's great to hear :)
very very good,have a nice day
Hi Glyn i have a question for you, when using photoshop and colour range, is there a reason i have to select Fuzziness and range and on tutorial you didnt, i think this changes outcome loads but cant see a way past it. im using CC latest version. regards stef
Great job Glyn. I still noticed a little bit of a red toned fringe on the leaves, could using a hue/sat adjustment layer targeting the reds and shift it more towards the sky blue helped? Probably in colorize mode. Either way it looks great! I'm really enjoying your shows. Thank you
You sold me the fake for certain! Thanks Glyn!
Nice one :)
I tore what hair I have left out playing to get the best result for this and did actually try that as it would have made it quicker resulting in just one extra channel but for some reason it just didn't work all that good. Gave me the same result as using sample colours and clicking in the sky :(
Thanks Kenedy
Excelent ninja Tip!
I agree with the clouds being "free stock images". I think the same applies to landscapes for posters.
Hi Glyn, I am doing this in CS5 and have followed every step (several times) and the smart object will not go over when I use the move tool. Is this tutorial only for CS6 or do I need to do something different in CS5. Thanks
Thank you thank u thank u!
:)
Thanks, I was really pissed editing images with trees and Antenas in removing the background
You use a tablet in Lightroom too Glyn?
What if you duplicated just the selection of the trees into a multiply layer 2 or 3 times?
Hello again Mr. Glyn I've a question trying to follow your instructions in the video I noticed the marching ants disappear in segment 3:50 what did you do to make it disappear? I can't figure if I need to deselect it or it was a jump in the video? Was it a command key you don't mention? I'm still looking at the video trying to figure it out haven't proceeded much further. Also I'm using a different photo with a dog in the background of a dark area that is toned almost the same as the dog been fiddling trying to figure out what to do with that too. Your advise please an step procedure?
To make them disappear I say / do "Select...DeSelect" once I have saved them
Question I noticed this works with colors that are clear cut as the sky an trees you have in the video what if there not an multicolored or both dark/light an are not so clearly defined?
Can we try the same trick for hair?
Sure thing
Yes I was SOLD!
Ah, I wondered what the "chain" icon meant.
What about Black Background & Black hair?
:)
sold it to me mate ! Lolwit
LOL :)
:) LOL
Brilliant, so its a big 10 for Glyn
