[@heikkiniiranen6035]

I appreciate that you explain well different functionalities of different tools in Photoshop instead of just making a video of using different tools without explaining why you used them and what such tools do. Thanks for teaching these things!

[@st19wht61]

THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking the time to share you knowledge and talent. I really appreciate it. Please do not get disheartened by some of the petty comments from people who are not contributing as you are, or who's egos have far out grown their talent. Thank you once again...

[@damorsatyam239]

I never seen this type of technique to use of dramatic shadow and lighting marvellous work man

[@loriendavy3248]

That final technique that you showed us, Kelvin -- the one where you converted all of your previously-created lighting effects into a Selection, and thence into a Layer Mask on a 2-stop over-exposed version of the original image -- blew my Ps-fledgling mind! I took notes, and will definitely be putting that technique to good use. In fact, I am going to guard it closely, as my own private Ps secret -- just between you and me ... and all the other people who benefited from this video. Thanx, again!

[@MetalZlig]

Awesome stuff! I love the fact you use so many keyboard shortcuts :) I learnt a few new one with this video. Very interesting technique creating a mask with all your lighting effects, I had never thought of that before! Continue the great stuff!

[@sadesign9575]

I love these tutorials that you do! You should do them more often, maybe more with editing as well

[@RosaPerry]

Thanks for the tutorial!!, So greatt

[@agustinsanchezduran501]

Thank you Kelvin. What to me it is a bit strange is that we have the light beams you created but also the natural ones in the floor. Is it not it?

[@SherifEmad]

Thank youuu

[@rgarlinyc]

Terrific tut - thanks a lot!

[@senhajimohamed7111]

Pretty good artist
I like this result
Thank you very much

[@RobertAWallace]

Thank you for sharing............It is appreciated.............I get the point made that the exercise did not need to take 24 Minutes, but that is a matter for each individual to consider.
Much is dependent on what we already know (or more to the point- do not know)
A lot of information (some reasonably advanced) has been crammed into the exercise, which may make it potentially confusing to new users..........Thank you for sharing

[@andreayangeladisenos6920]

i love u so much bro, thanks very much

[@vexb637]

Would it be the same basic concept if you were to draw a spotlight? Or a flashlight?

[@PENFOLD1962]

Looks amazing 👍😉👌

[@rajdeeproshansahu1347]

Piece of cake..... awsm

[@brodqga]

[@TheBiggervern]

[@user-kx7cz6kh1q]

thanks, i like your videos

[@ChadForemanCreative]

Awesome tutorial! Best, most advanced lighting tutorial I've seen yet. Really appreciate you sharing these techniques.

[@rigo.garcia]

Nice job! is it possible to do a video where you have to match image but it's in a different color space. Meaning Im trying to my match my untreated image to the same image but its been color treated, the whole image.

[@DanThomas1161]

Amazing tutorial this. Subscribed.

[@cofedrunkard]

very useful, thank you

[@mikecee227]

I'm not trying to be knit picky but the way the light reflects from the real picture onto the floor seems to be a different perspective from the light beams. If you changed the way the light beams came in and crossed the beams, would that not work?

[@edata1147]

very good

[@loriendavy3248]

Thank you for that excellent tutorial, Kelvin! Two questions: Why did you convert the image to greyscale? Will all the techniques that you showed us still work for a color image?

[@youriiiboy]

Thank you so much

[@ayash96h]

thank u very much >>very helpful ...........How can I get files and pictures ... Link does not work ... Please help

[@trueeegamingg6155]

[@summitbob213]

[@despoinabratitsi1812]

Hi, thank you for the video. i wanted to ask you how did you adjust the image pf a smart object? when I do min eat won't let me. All the image adjustments appear grey

[@thephotographer9712]

wow...amazing tutorial...

[@victoria_atmosphere9290]

Why would the light be beaming in from the wall rather than the window?

[@anitarajputani]

Excellent

[@ecren1868]

subscribed straight after first tutorial... lol

[@omoalayo8004]

[@vankydude]

Very helpful

[@shubhamdhoot3999]

Hello sir
I tried using the gaussian blur but it actually doesny blur the edges of my selection at all. It just fades the selection still leaving the edges sharp. I am using cc in windows
Is there any solution to it

[@amiranayel3835]

PERFECT

[@akashadearg-due1435]

Thanks

[@avmurugesh9735]

Brilliant

[@oxidasic]

awesome

[@GiangNguyen-yo3no]

thank you so much :))

[@Terrorbrot]

"its actually really simple"
makes a 24min video xD

[@LinhNguyen-mh7of]

he's too old for it . lol

[@Terrorbrot]

Why post your cheap, scummy advertisement on a 4 year old video?

[@bennoroderick348]

You are very smart.

[@gideonzirangey9436]

How do I get camera raw filter? Am using cs6 version

[@ObigdollyO]

great job just...the light on the ground under the window has a different direction than the light you made...🤔..like there are two suns

[@rkddesigners8887]

Nice work , can you send me architecture day effects to night effects editing videos in photoshop.....please sir..

[@andreaserdt5322]

Hey Kelvin, very good tutorial.
How did you put in the background with Eiffe Tower?

[@markwood9823]

Hey thanks for this amazing tutorial. You created some magic and it was really cool to see it come to life. Thanks for sharing your talents.

[@richosea]

How do you change the photo back to color????

[@recomendei]

AMAZING TUTORIAL!

[@SemageNamalSurendra]

HOW ITS KEY BOARD HITS APPEARS ON THE SCREEN? ANY SOFTWARE?

[@keremayan452]

Are you using Logitech G502?

[@ruidoblanco]

why did you let open the folder window in the background?

[@cosmo0080]

maybe you could do tutorials with pse ?

[@gpgpainting]

While the technique is solid the execution on this particular image is terrible. You have areas where the light is clearly coming in through the windows, that is where your light rays should be falling. There should only be one light flare/bright spot not one on each window. And perhaps you should have used noise instead of rendering clouds to make it appear there were dust particulates instead of smoke.
Sorry man, it looks all wrong and unnatural to the eye.

[@Javaman92]

Thank you, that is exactly what I was thinking. Ya saved me keystrokes. ;-)

[@fw3381]

, thanks! Don't pay attention. To the critics the are always UNHAPPY PEOPLE

[@koolert2001]

cant download the files for this tutorail

[@runninghead_media]

Not bad, if a little heavy-handed. Taught me about Post Crop Vignetting in the Camera Raw Filter, which was a life-saver. Thank you! Maybe consider changing the D on your intro ident as it looks kinda like an ampersand? ;)

[@dlcrdz00]

Can't access the source files...the download link isn't working

[@marianodemiguel3442]

You made the most complicated tutorial I have ever seen!! There are many good points buried in layers of mumble, going back and forth at times and impossible to follow. A lot of the beams are NOT physically possible in real life.

[@manibengood]

mariano de miguel my thoughts exactly. Too much mumbling and too much back tracking. I felt that the tutorial had great content. Just poorly executed. Not that I could it have done much better. I've watched enough tutorials to know good and bad execution.

[@hajeraa]

hey i'm at 19:43 and the trick doesn't work... their no selction that gets created... PSD says their 0% selection...

[@Sarwar19475]

How I can access tje source file.

[@angelo209100]

[@FaithInBuddhnism]

[@thomsonsunil7394]

[@DavidDrejer]

That looks so much like the Round tower in Copenhagen. Dont know why i can see things like that sometimes Haha

[@trgame7588]

Wow from 2021
