You're so good, Jimmy! I've been using PS for a decade now but when I see your application of that knowledge, I am absolutely blown away. In this video, especially towards the ending 2-3 minutes, the image totally turned around for me with your manual vignette which led the eye to the right areas. From processing all of my images in PS, to using only LR for the past few years, I now see the merit of going back to PS for some choicest images to have more minute control over the image.

Probably the easiest to understand tutorial so far, Thanks Jimmy.

Love this Jimmy. I could listen to you do these all day long.

Thank you for this great and easy to follow tutorial Jimmy. Having CC available is fantastic!

What a nice subtle and very balanced edit Jimmy. Thanks for sharing.

Looking forward to Raya Pro 5.0. I believe the manual vignette is very useful and other updates too.

Another great video. Thanks, Jimmy!

Great video as pr usual. Looking forward to 5.0!

I am glad I found your channel and your products. Glad you enter my creative life. Thanks for doing this.

*I'm sold!* I've just bought a copy thanks also to Albert Dros suggestion ;)

Fantastic Jimmy, thank you for sharing your knowledge!

Good video Jimmy. I purchased the Art of Photography and it's by far the best tutorial I have purchased, hands down. Thanks for all the help and it is appreciated 👍🙏

Hey Jimmy, thanks for opening my eyes to Luminosity Masks! Could you do a tutorial on focus stacking next?

Thx Jimmy.. Ive had Raya Pro for a couple of years now. This tutorial helps because your Raya plug-in can be intimidating and many of your other tutorials are very fast where I have to pause the video to type it out in a Word document. It would help if your tutorials contained an outline text to the side and were spoken slower on the process of "Instamask" and all your other RayaPro features.

Very informative video.

Thank you Jimmy for sharing, very informative indeed, usings masks are indeed a complicated matter especially for a beginner, but in this video you made it look so easy. Will be watching more of your tutorials. Take care friend.

Great video. I purchased Raya Pro a few years ago and I’m ashamed to say I don’t really use it as I struggle with it. This video goes a long way towards getting my head around it.

Fantastic. Thank you!

Nice one Jimmy

Hi Jimmy, For me you are master of luminosity masks. I had taken up your art of photography course part of 5 day deal. And I have to tell you I still refer them, I did have few other course too but always found your method effective. I also missed while you were away from you. tube. Just a thought for this photo would you have considered enhancing fog a little bit.

1000th like! - Thanks for sharing your incredible skills...

Great video Jimmy again. :) But it always is. :)I bought two courses from you and I have to write that they are great, the first is Exposure Blend Like a Expert for Raya Pro and it helped me a lot, now everything is so much easier and the second is The Art Of Photography and it completely got me, great, absolutely perfect...I recommend them to everyone, of course I also downloaded your new book, I'm at the beginning, but I enjoy it :) :)

Hi Jimmy, would love to see how You use Raya Pro with an M10 Monochrom file.

How would you prefer to print this image, and, what would you do additionally to prepare it for print?

Jim a tutorial in landscape high key with Easy Panel thanks Jimmy

Hi, Jim, would you have a tutorial using Easy Panel? thanks Jim

I prefer the image you started with

Great tutorial but why did you need the extra step with the curves layer to blend in the bright exposure? Could you not just repeat the same process as for blending in the dark exposure? Thank you!

Hi Jimmy, I'm a regular follower of your videos.And I follow your style to edit my pictures.Thanks for these videos especially for the beginners like me in photography. I would like to know How can we give grey tones to the shadows instead of black tone?

Jimmy - I love your classes and I watch all your videos - and truthfully I am getting pretty good at using Raya Pro and Lumi32. And I 100% love it - it changed my photography. My biggest question or what I would love to see would be your true overall workflow. You do a great job showing how to do it with Raya Pro and without. Some videos you share you do burning nondestructive and another video you share you do it destructive. Some you recommend Lumi32 and most you do with Instamask - But I would love to see a true overall picture of just you. Such as do you do all your pieces and images using RayaPro - or do you do the majority just using Lightroom or Adobe Raw? If you just got back from a photo trip and was sitting at home - no one watching what products you were using - no selling anything - just your honest to truly Jimmy Workflow - start to finish - out of the camera to a print or a post on the web. That is the part I struggle with the most with this process. Your new videos where you edit peoples work is outstanding and touches on it but instead of sharing how to do it in different ways - just your real process. Thank you

You had posted a tutorial of the same landscape under the same challenge jimmy series before. composition and lighting was much better in that image. Nevertheless another good tutorial. Waiting for Raya Pro 5!

Great stuff as always. Did not get an update email for roya pro 5 I’ll check my spam folder

Interesting but how you did the levels of the luminosity that you used for the masks?

Where it is shot? Nice image and nice process, waiting for Raya 5!!!

Great tutorial as usual jimmy. However following this tutorial i came across a problem with smart object. I set up the smart object as per your tutorial but when i double click on the smart object it opens another file rather than go into Camera Raw. I'm on the latest photoshop as i dont remember encountering this problem with previous versions of photoshop. I've been through my preferences to see if there was a problem there but i cant find anything there which would stop smart object opening in camera raw when i double click. I suppose the other option is to go to filter /camera raw to open the raw convertor. I wonder if you or anybody else here can help. It's bugging me.

There is problem with this method, the reflection of the sky after postprocessing look brighter than the sky. The view is drawn to the bottom left corner.

Won't the local adjustment brush in ACR do the same ?

When did Raya Pro 5.0 come out? I have Raya Pro 4.0 as the latest update, never knew 5.0 came out.

Why not using one layer but several curves applying different luminosity masks? I do it and apply constrast according but with no problem with matching since I am seeing the result real time

HI jimmy, how can I update to Raya Pro 5.0?

Jimmy! i could not catch you on how to make contrast so that level window is pop-up, on the video 9:29" thanks.

raya pro 5??? when?
