Phelan was and still is one of my first stops for Photoshop knowledge bombs- since the beginning of the month, I've been trying to drop some knowledge bombs myself, nowhere near Aaron Nace level yet! 💪🙏

Thank you so much for using my photo! I love the edit. I'm completely fan girling over here. If it wasn't for Phlearn I would still struggle in PS. I've spent so many hours watching your videos. Hours well spent! Thanks for all you do.

Aaron try blurring the mask in the properties menu. That way it’s none destructive and you can always change the blur level at any point in the retouch.

I like the concept. I think it would be even easier to apply in LR/ACR with a few radial filters.

@Secondcropcreative 5 жыл бұрын

Nailed it on the head! Everything we do in Photoshop, ACR and LR are kind of conceptual- there are numerous methods/ways to achieve one end result.

When I use Iris blur I don't get the inner dots, that you have, and I have the latest CC2019 installed. How come? Is there a setting I am missing? The inner dots make the blurring much more precise.

The legend has it that you can use 'Stamp Visible' (Alt+Ctrl+Shift+E) to get the same result as 'Apply Image'. Is that true or there are some minor differences?

I do not have the Eliptical Marquee Tool on my photoshop. What's another way of completing this task?

@medamine775 4 жыл бұрын

You can do the same by clicking on *Shape tool* then choose the *Ellipse tool* then create a New layer (so you can delete it later) then draw your Ellipse and put it wherever you want to be, then click on Ctrl/Cmd button on your keyboard + the left button of your mouse on that layer (which you just created to draw the Ellipse) you'll get then a selection around that Ellipse, then just turn off that layer by clicking on the small eye next to it, and here you go, you'll get the same Result as if you have used the Elliptical Marquee Tool :)

@tw9535 5 жыл бұрын

Nice video and helpful techniques... thumbs up! But of course those edits still look like the picture was monkeyed with in Photoshop. No way around that when you add sharpness and brightness to just an area around the subject. I hope no one invests $$$ in a really nice lens and then comes back and does these smartphone filter type edits.

Why don't you use smart objects or smart filters so the effects stay adjustable? That "apply image" part, creating a snapshot, is totally destructive, non editable.

@Secondcropcreative 5 жыл бұрын

One great thing with photoshop is there are a million ways to achieve the same end result. (I do agree with using smart filters) 🙏

@sunnaum 5 жыл бұрын

Cntrl+z is one click, convert for smart filters is two. hahah

@Mvinifeijo 5 жыл бұрын

@@sunnaum i see you don't use photoshop a lot. The idea is to be able to adjust the filters values at any time you wish, without affecting other editions you made on the image. If you "ctrl+z", you will lost every other edition you made until you reach back the filter creation. That's a totally destructive way of using photoshop.

@TimurKaramov 5 жыл бұрын

It is clearly overkill, just use camera raw filter plugin for photoshop

@paultremblay4836 5 жыл бұрын

How can you take an old picture from the 50s and make it look like it was made in 2019. I guess it's impossible but that could be the next challenge for Photoshop with AI technology

@Secondcropcreative 5 жыл бұрын

Isn't kind of funny that in 2019 we have Instagram and filters where we want to make our images look degraded and faded like they were from the 50s ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
