Targeting the dark areas for burning with blend-if is great! I love that you can used the pink overlay to check where the burning will do. A very rounded and great tutorial, thank you!
What a pleasant surprise to see you working on a photo from my Colorado backpacking trip in 2013. I absolutely love the way you processed it. Thanks for the great lesson, Dave.
Thanks again Dave for this educational edit, I also like that you keep repeating how to use certain tools, after repeating it a few times I can remember it much more easily, also nice for newcomers. Here I found the edit a bit too strong, but you can't argue about taste, the most important thing is that we learn how to achieve a result. And for me it's getting better and better, for which thanks, Greetings Patrick
Marvelous video. I just came back from a month in Newfoundland where the landscape is all brown grasses and small ponds and stormy skies. This video will help me immensely. Thanks Gary
A bit late to the party, but I am so glad I did not miss this full edit! Again, another masterful educational experience by the master of editing! Agree with Stephen, I like seeing the use of the various uses of the Blend If tool, the selection tools, and reinforcing the use of the Orion Effect. Thank you very much Dave…
An alternative for setting up to dodge/burn using Blend If as a "Selection" which mirrors setting up for dodging/burning through a selection is to start by using the Create Blend If button and choosing the darks/lights using the familiar black and white preview, then shift-click the required dodge/burn option in the Multi-Mask Output section. Edit Blend If is still available to modify the chosen settings, which is the advantage over dodging/burning through a selection. Also if dodge/burn is done on a gray layer then ctrl/command-click on the Cx/Combo eyeball icon will display just the currently selected layer.
One thing about editing the name of a color grading layer (which I do often). In order to retain color grading edit capabilities, you have to keep “TK” somewhere in the layer name.
Thanks for pointing that out Gregg. You do need to add (TK) when renaming a Color Grading Layer. The TK doesn't have to be capitalized but it does need to be in parentheses (TK) (tk)...
Fantastic Edit, Dave. I have been using photoshop and have been using Tony's Luminosity panels but you have taken it to an extraordinary level. Hope to see you edit one of my images.
Hello Dave Merci pour toutes vos vidéos TK.., c'est toujours un plaisir de les suivre. J'ai une question, dans vos Actions, vous avez Luminar Neo, est-ce que vous l'utilisé ?, si oui, dans quel cas ?
I do have Luminar Neo and I just use it if I am looking for a certain look. It has some pretty nice filters. Plugins like Luminar work well with Luminosity masks.
Another great edit Dave. One thing that's bugging me though is the result you got with the gen fill to remove the rock at the beginning of the edit. There's quite a prominent vertical line on the left side of the resultant "shape", and it does look like the whole thing is just sitting on top of the background. Just my 2 cents. An easy fix by generating more results. Cheers.
Very nice edit Dave; I particularly like your applications of Blend If. By the way, you clicked twice on a button in the TYK9 Multi-Mask panel, calling it a Saturation mask button. I believe the button you clicked refers to producing a Color mask. I know, your point is to highlight the fact you intend to output the mask in a Hue-Saturation adjustment layer. I'm picky today!🙂
I am reviewing your video for the 4th time After using Gen Fill, the results appear to be blurry and lack sharpness compared to the rest of my image. At this time, I have given up on Gen Fill, but I will continue checking out your fantastic videos. Gary
Another superb edit Dave and I continue to learn a great deal from your full edits. One thing I cant rememember is how you removed a light halo in one of your videos as I cannot remember which video it was . I introduced a halo somehow in a landscape image betwen my foreground and sky and am struggling to remove it ?
Thanks. To remove a Halo you can use a Clone Stamp tool. For this technique you can't use a blank pixel layer. What I do is Stamp all of the layers together, use the Clone Stamp Tool in the Darker Color mode (found in Tool Menu). The next step is to sample an area close to the halo with the Clone Stamp Tool (option or ALT Click to sample) and simply paint the halo away.
Can someone help me in the step of this edit where we went back to the water color grading to change it. Upon clicking on the color grading tool I kept getting a new white layer on top of the stack, not the same one as had been used previously. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Bruce did you go to that previous Color Grading Layer and click on it to make it active before you clicked on the Color Grading Button, which would be correct? Next, after clicking on the Color Grading Layer to make it active, if the Color Grading Tool is not present in the MultiMask Panel you will need to click on the Color Grading Tool Button in the MultiMask Panel. Now you can click on any button in the Color Grading Tool (Shadows, Mid Tones or Highlights) to make a re-adjustment.
Bruce since that didn’t help. Please save out everything you have done and close Photoshop and reopen the file and try it again. If that doesn’t work please get in touch with Tony Kuyper. Here is his Contact Link: goodlight.us/contact.html
Mystery solved! It appears that after I changed the name of the layer to "water" it no longer was able to bring up the color grading tool on that layer (although the adjustment was still there.) Seems that Tony's naming protocol has something to do with the operation of the layers. Thanks very much for your reply and all of the great learning videos you provide.
@@BruceLR57 Bruce you can rename a Color Grading layer but you need to have (TK) or (tk) in parentheses so the Color Grading Tool will operate properly.

Awesome! What a transformation!
Fantastic video. Got to learn a lot. Thanks a ton.
Happiness is TK Friday. Your use of the color grading tool is magic. Plus I appreciate seeing more Blend If in these edits. Thanks Dave!
I am soooo glad you do these TK Fridays!
Great lesson Dave, thanks for sharing!
Thank you, great edit, lots of new tricks

Great edit Dave - thanks.
Another excellent video.
Thanks, Dave. The more I see how the blend-if option functions, the more I'm inclined to use it.
A superb edit and tutorial. Greatly appreciate your time, effort, and remarkable skill set.

Question: how do you get the green circle around the tip of your brush?
You're welcome Jorge. The green circle is from my editing software, it's there to help call out my cursor in the video.
I dont speek inglish, bat i inderstend your tutorial! Very nice!

Thanks. I sometimes call the Color Mask a Saturation Mask by mistake. I missed that in the edit or I would have corrected my mistake.
