Great video! I like the simplicity of your approach, no complicated photography jargon and very easy to follow for beginners like myself. Thanks a lot and hoping to see more of your video.

I will have more content coming, so please be on the look out for that.

Oh my, I am so excited to have found your videos Chris, learning sooooo much! I am new to On1 and have so much to learn, but I like the way you approach an edit, also the use of Effects. Excited to watch more of your tutorials. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge with others.

I sure will, thanks a mil! Gosh that even rhimes 😂 Really appreciate it

Thank you Free Will. As a Lightroom user from version 1 in 2007, I am blown away by On1 Photo Raw. I get all the basics of what's happening, but learning the interface is a big change. I have just started using the program and have an auto racing shoot to edit from this past weekend. I'm following along with your edits (How do you show the masked black and white preview BTW?) and your easy going style and approach is much appreciated. The quick results to my edit are looking great! I look forward to watching more of your videos. Well done!

Thank you for this comment and sorry for the late response. I hope your racing shoot was edited well! ON1 is an interface change from LRC, but you will find you have more flexibility in editing with ON1 than you do in LrC because you can expose your image and then color grade it separately. You can then apply a preset to really polish your final look. to toggle between the mask view, you will just press the letter "O" on your keyboard. I think this is short for Overlay. I use that feature almost every edit.

Great video as ever Chris. Have a great day.

Thanks buddy!

Chris: Allow me to be "pacific" here. ;-) This video is good for beginners as you said. However, it is also a good reminder to those of us who are a little more advanced because we are liable to forget the basics trying to run to the more detailed tools too quickly. This should help those fairly new to On1 2024. I do hope this comment is specific enough to the video. ;-) Have a great day man.

Thank you Danny this comment is perfect and I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts on this video. You’re correct we can get overwhelmed with some of the newer features and tools instead of focusing on the basics, and that was the idea behind this video. I’m glad it came through in the end!

​@@FreeWillPhotos Chris: I'm glad you took my comment the way I intended. I too sometimes get messed up and day Pacific when I mean specific and then I struggle to recall what the right word is. So I was having fun, but not making fun of you. Reminders are always good that usually the simple tool will take most of us where we want to go. You don't need luminosity masks and 5 layers on every photo. The photo will typically tell you what it needs. That's my experience anyway. So I'm glad we are on the same page in humor or lack thereof as my wife always tells me. Yes, she's a meanie and doesn't get good humor. Just keep that between us. 😂 Take care and I always look forward to what you will bring next

Danny it is always great to hear from you! I think the imperfections in my content make it more relatable. There are too many people on KZread pretending to be perfect and sometimes stress over making everything exactly that. We have to remember the purpose of posting content and why people come to watch it more than if everything is just the way it should be or that you say everything the right way. I have a lot on my plate with work and family, but making content for KZread is a passion of mine for fun and building community. I don't make much money for the time and energy it costs to produce content and engage with the community, but I don't do this for the money. Thank you for your support and I will keep your comment between us as best I can. Take care my friend!

@@FreeWillPhotos Chris: You are very welcome. i know with your number of subscribers, you get a pittance from KZread. I know you have a wife and 2 daughters and at least a dog. They all require time and care from you. I know you are passionate about teaching and I know you do way more than just On1 on KZread. I love the way you show us your faults and your surprises the other day when you tried something and when it worked, you cheered. You were as surprised as anyone. That is realism and in a world of fakes on social media, you are a breath of fresh air. I hope you continue, but I also know burn out is real. So I hope others start giving you the views, likes, subs, etc. that you deserve.

Good video, Will. The only thing that is disturbing in this picture is the lack of straightening. On the wall in the back, one sees very well the brick lines. The one at the level of where the camera was should be completely horizontal. At the moment it is the line on top of the wall, suggesting the camera was on the ceiling, which doesn't fit the rest of the picture.It makes the whole picture look weird.

Great observation and I agree the lines in the background are not straight and I could have corrected that using the cropping tool. The only issue I would have ran into with fixing that is it would have made the player with the ball look like he was standing up straight, and that would not have been accurate either. In this photo I errored on the side of making the subject look appropriate instead of the background. Good catch though.

Outstanding Edit..!!

The basics are important once you master those then you can move onto more complicated techniques. Thank you for the comment.

Great video Chris on the new ON1 app! It will save me a lot of time working on my photos. Just getting back into ON1 after a hiatus.

My goal is to help you save time and inspire you to test some things out. The basics are foundational to the more technical parts of editing in ON1. I hope you get back into the groove quick. If there is anything I can do to help out, just let me know.

Hi, Chris. Stunning video, my friend. I have sent you an email. Antoine.

just noticed ON1 Raw 2024 BRILLIANCE AI produces tinted image from APPLE RAW (DNG)

@FreeWillPhotos

7 ай бұрын

That is an odd thing... I have not tried Brilliance AI on Apple RAW photos, but I will have to take a look at that. Is it on all of the images or just a few of your images?

Once again you post an Unsplash link that doesn't even have the pic you're using as an example. What's the point? If you want people to learn something, doesn't it make sense to provide them with the same pic so they can mirror your moves and learn? Almost all the editing experts on here allow downloads of their practice files. I pointed this out to you last month and you said you'd look into this but alas.

You are aware he is doing this for free, right? Are you also aware that he is teaching concepts for you to use on your own photos? If he gives you his file, that's a gift, but if you simply learn and understand the techniques he is using and sharing, you can apply it to your own appropriate pics. Chris will never say it, but your complaining so loudly over something you are not paying for makes you sound like an ingrate. Just my thoughts.

@@DannyFyffe Duh, that's not even the point. All the other content creators are also doing it for free. And they give away lots of stuff. When it was pointed out to him earlier that the link does NOT work, he said he would take care of it. He's welcome to "NOT" give us his files, but then pasting a link which has no relevance to the tutorial is pointless. It's just a link after all, on Unsplash where the images are free anyways, not some real treasure worth gazillions, so you might as well make it relevant. That might even help in him gaining more subscribers, with the resultant increase in income. Good to see though that you're able to sermonize and warble cluelessly. Just my thoughts.

Thank you for the comment and the Point is that I teach a concept that you can use on your own photos. I did mention I would correct the link which I did. I’m sorry the result is not to your satisfaction, but I ask that you look past the link in the description and learn how to use the techniques on your own photos. I’m not sure your fixation on the link, but the second point to sharing the unsplash link is to provide a curated list of images you could use to test out the techniques that I demonstrate in the video. To your point of providing the same reference image I don’t agree. I never want anyone to create the same result as me on there images, instead I want them to explore possibilities of applying a technique on a similar or even completely opposite photo. I see @dannyfyffe responded to you as well, and I think my response supports his message to you. I do this to help people and I think my efforts are sufficient in that area. My goal is to inspire people to work on there photos and this is a friendly community on the channel. I realize we won’t always agree, but I don’t think Danny’s comments were displaced in any way. I am open to further conversation via email (freewillphotos@gmail.com) if you want to discuss the matter of the link further, because I may be missing a critical need that your are looking for and I truly just want to help as best I can.
