Wow, my head is spinning. So many interesting techniques such as masking a mask.
Brilliant. I have done similar techniques to bring back some blue to the sky while masking the subject in my photos (Luminance and Dehaze sliders mostly). It never really occurred to me to use the blue gradients in PS, but I will give them a look. The big take away in this video for me was the apply image using different blend modes to refine the mask (I usually use levels). I constantly learn something new from you. Thank you!
So many great techniques in one video! Thank you.
Learned many new techniques, shortcuts. Amazing!
Thank you, rpurdum!
Great tips and shortcuts! Thanks!
This is an excellent tutorial. Very thorough, detailed and easily understandable. Thanks, it really helped me.
Fantastic and very detailed. Thank you.
Another excellent ‘tutorial’. Many thanks.
Thank you so much for another very useful tutorial!
Great job. Thanks!
Excellent tutorial! I have been searching for a powerful tool like this! Thank you!
Awesome - thank you!
Thanks man! This was perfect. Loved the keyboard shortcut tricks.
This was my first time watching one of your videos. OUTSTANDING! I'll be back.
Inverting while copying a layer mask is new to me. I knew how to copy, but then always had to go to properties and invert. A real time saver.
Yup, it's a good one to know, Terri!
amazing work thankyou for this usefull tutorial 😊
Great tutorial !
It looks awesome!
I learn so much my mind was hurting...so I will be rewatching (several times) and then doing this to a photo myself a few times to get all this down.
This is really wonderful.
Fantastic tutorial, simple things like this make a powerful impact, I have gained some fantastic knowledge there, thank you. 😍😍
You're welcome, Matt!
Wauw, thank you! Didn't know it was this easy. Makes my picture much better!
I really loved that 'double masking' tip
informative and helpful as usual
Very useful tutorial sir thank you.

Thank You, it's a amazing video (again)
I am trying to fix some “professional “ photos that my wedding photographer took. And im new to this. But you are an excellent instructor. I will watch more of your tutorials. Thank you.
Thank you for this very thorough tutorial, JR. I'd remove that bloody crane of course but it doesn't make your work less awesome. Cheers
Fantastic tutorial. Learnt a lot....Cheers from Nova Scotia...

Very informative. Also, I think this would be a good candidate for black and white!
Thanks
You're welcome, Snow Wold!
Smart education 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great video Jesus,thanks.
Great insights (as usual) thanks a ton, Jesús!🙏 (p.s. Knew about the copy-mask-and-invert, but had forgotten how to access it!)
Wow..I landed here by chance..but am staying..🙌
Your tutorials are always packed with great tips and steps. I hope I sit down and apply this soon! I've taken notes and hope they are complete enough to keep me on point. Thank you so much Jesus!
Lots of ways to mask the building, but an alternative that I think is faster and easier than demonstrated, is to add a Levels adjustment layer above the background layer. Adjust the sliders to maximize contrast between the sky and building: a combination of moving the white point, grey point and black point sliders. Doing this will show some blue patches in the sky that was otherwise hidden. Change the blend mode of the Levels layer to Luminosity to eliminate this. Then use the Magic Wand to select the sky. With my Tolerance of the tool set to 23, it took 3 clicks to select the whole sky.
Excellent video! In your atmospheric group, could you paint directly on your original inverted curves mask to darken the spires of the building?
You´ve just save all my London´ pics. TKS
When I saw this video's length at 21 mins, I knew it's not a One Click affair!
Typically, when traveling, I get one chance to make a memorable image. Therefore, if I don't like the sky, I'll pick a portion of the scene to shoot that doesn't need sky. Then I still have the memory, as well as something beautifully composed with minimal editing. I may not ever replace a boring sky, but to know how the tools you used work on a real image is valuable.
I literally just got back in from a shoot where we got some great shots, but the skies were completely ugly grey, and there waiting for me in my email was my PTC email with the link to this video. How did you know?! Perfect timing! Thanks!
Great video. Does this method produce halos around the outline of the building and if so what is the best way to remove it. Thanks.
What would be the best way to blend the sky from another image in the case of such a detailed image ( i.e the gaps at the top of the duomo architecture). I've been struggling with it! I love your tutorials!
What a great tutorial, thank you Jesus.
Thanks for another "very exciting tutorial" (still miss that! 😊), Jesùs. Question: At ~15:12, was it necessary to delete the Layer Mask first? Would not the ⌥-⇧-drag operation have replaced the provided Layer Mask? Again, many thanks for all your helpful techniques!
The irony is a dull, grey sky is in many ways preferable as it creates diffuse light, resulting in lower contrast and lower risk of glare blooming on your photo.
Jesus, your tutorials are great! This seems like a lot of work to get blue skies. It might be interesting if you reviewed Luminar 4 and its sky replacement tool. In most instances it does a terrific job with just one click and you can then do it few touchups if necessary.
Buen dia saludos de Perú gracias por Compartir tan bonitos vidios Felicidades
Gracias, a'gusto chanell!
a lot of interesting stuff in this tutorial. But alas, why is Photoshop sooo complicated!!!! :)
Just curious if it wouldn't have been easier to just select the building as you did and remove the cloudy sky and place a new image behind the building with a real blue sky with clouds...because now you have a strange sky...but I get it...the purpose is to learn all the steps to modify the image and all the different tools, tricks, shortcuts, and steps. Thanks for the video. I learned a lot.
Two things: (1) I did NOT know about using SHIFT to why you just didn't -OPT (Mac) to copy and invert a layer mask, (2) Curious as remove that construction crane from the image. It was the first thing I saw when you opened the image, and it was a MAJOR distraction throughout. But love the technique
What I think? You are genius!
Thank you, Robert!
Thank you, Jesus, for the trick about coping the mask and inverting it at the same time!!! New to me too. :)
So now you've done that, is there anyway to take everyone's hood down now the weather's better? 😅
Awesome shortcut to copy and invert layer mask...the fewer steps the better I like it.
Nice video! I like the techniques I see here, although as an Affinity Photo user, I have double-mask support by default and I don't need to group things to do it >:)
In this case, I don't think you needed to add any grain to the image. You didn't remove the grain that was already there, so why add more? When you set the blend mode of the sky to Multiply, it puts the grainy texture back into the sky, right? Perhaps I'm missing something here.
In my opinion a blue sky is not appropriate for this image, a dramatic sky would be better.
Nevertheless some techniques were new for me: Inverting while copying a layer mask, grouping all the layers into a smart object for Camera Raw Filter corrections.
Good work.
Question: do you have a tut on creating sun beams from zero?
Thank you Jesus ... I got a question... is there a trick to tune “new sky exposure “ with the foreground subject as in this example you showed?
For example will it works “color match” even for exposure ?
Question - I am a Real Estate Photographer, and I hate when other RE Photographers use sky inserts. It’s probably just a personal preference, but I think when they are used it is super obvious and looks fake, and I prefer for my photos to look realistic. However, would you consider the tool and tips you used here to be a photo insert? Probably in the true sense of the term it’s not, but just curious on your opinion, or the opinions of others.
Thanks Jesus; loved the 'P' shortcut!
You didn't include a link in the description for how to remove jpeg compression.
For anyone that wants it:

Great tutorial as always, Jesus!
this didn't work very well for my image because it destroyed the bokeh on the building (i was stopped down) and also made the CA very apparent. I know how to remove CA using gaussian blur, but is there a way to preserve the bokeh in this particular scenario?
16:38 you missed tye rectangle
when i go to "apply image" the channel for the copy of the blue channel doesnt show up. does anyone know how to fix this?
What app is this? And what do i do if i dont have a mac?
It's Photoshop. And I used a Windows machine to record this. Not a Mac.
Thanks for tutorial, anyway...blue sky only happen when there is Sun shining,...not in cloudy day. So Id prefer to turn the saturation of blue sky down near to grey
Good way to make a alpha channel.
There's so much here will need multiple viewings to extract the most out of it.
Great but would prefer if you would go a little slower. Thanks
PLEASE consider adding Elements work arounds in some of your videos! Thanks!
Who needs a crane jib in the pic ?..just content aware it out, or clone it out
This takes my bad photography to another level
When I cycle through the channels all I get is a red overlay, a green overlay and a blue overlay. Nothing like what you have on your video. I'm using latest 2020. I had the same problem with the 'enhance colours with this insanely useful filter. I've checked all my settings. Help!
Valerie, it's the same thing. You just have the color overlay turned on. It's off by default, but it represents the same thing.
@@PhotoshopTrainingChannel Thank you Jesus. Will try again!
Cool, I change the sky in Photoshop CC last night. I can watch Jesus right now to see what he did. I can compare the technic that he is teaching in this video to the technic I used last night and see which is the better technic.
Nice, but why not show the light and the building like it was?
Live isn't alwas sunny!
Luminar 4 Sky ai
Great as always, but I get a "pink" mask from the channels masking, is there a way to disable that other than 0 opacity of it? And I found I have to delete the "blue copy" channel in order to save as a tiff.
💗💗💗💗💗🙌🙌🙌🙌
Congratulations. It took less than five minutes for me to be so frustrated that I'm never watching your channel videos again. I don't need to know what techniques don't work, I need to know what DOES!!
It would be easier to go back on a nice sunny day and take another snap, easy peasy.
Two thirds through, completely lost it. You were clicking on so many different things
Couldn’t finish the video. Might have been good info, but the subject was so bad, I couldn’t watch any more. This started with, what looked to me, a crappy phone snapshot, and tried to make a photograph out of it. I’ve struggled with bad skies, but trying save a snapshot has never been a problem
first
👍🙂
