If portrait editing is something you do regularly you might want to check out Skylum's newly announced portrait editing software. It's aimed at professionals though so it's not going to be right for everyone. You can find out more here: bit.ly/ApertyPortrait Please note they've only got a limited number of pre-release licences available. I also did a video about it here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ncuEbJqGnMCppIk.html

Love the little blooper at the end, Anthony. 😄 You've really opened my eyes on what you can do with luminosity masks! To think I've been missing this technique all these years. Your next video?

@phlotographer 2 ай бұрын

simpler to just crop at the bottom of the R elbow. Generally splitting of the hands on these types of poses allows for more emphasis to be on the mask of the face so that the hands are not larger than that mask. Nicely toned down hands. Lots of good stuff to learn in this module. Thanks as usual AT. Oh, forgot to mention, Jim has advised that this update will be included for all users of NEO. Glad I get another one for my original NEO purchase.

@rather-reverend 2 ай бұрын

Nice - and very helpful. I can't wait to unpack this new toy. - I've been using Supercontrast and the Color balance tool in Color Harmony to do some SIMILAR processing - but this will be a lot more powerful and logical. - Seems like a couple of the last situations would have been great for object select mode? (Like the bit of shirt.) - I'm in camp landscape.

@AnthonyTurnham 2 ай бұрын

The object select is great, but it has a pretty hard edge. So although it looks like a shape of white fabric, the subtle darker tonal shift towards the edges would likely have resulted in a halo/fringe.

I was wondering this morning why they have not included camera tethering in Luminar Neo, while other photo editors have included it in their programs, like Adobe and Capture One. I'm sure that is not a big deal for them, but then we could take and edit our photos without using other programs.

@sigurdrille9693 2 ай бұрын

Thank you for this detailed explanation, landscapes would be my favourite… When you close the luminosity mask and open it up again, will it start as a fresh new mask and thus overlap the first luminosity mask you created (like the gradient masks) or will it just be where you left off and let you refine your original settings? Thank you for your answer 🙏🙂

@AnthonyTurnham 2 ай бұрын

Good question! It adds to the initial mask. If you want to start fresh you need to clear the mask. This is the beta version I'm using so it's possible this may change.

Hi Kim. The pink? Do you mean the over exposed highlight warning? Pressing j on your keyboard toggles this on and off. But, yes, you can use this approach to correct overexposed images. Best done with a bracketed set.

@AnthonyTurnham 2 ай бұрын

Tbh Lumenzia is still going to give more control, BUT, most people won't need the subtleties that those panels offer. Lumenzia has also updated to include some very accurate colour selection options now too!
