Happy to hear that 😊 🙏

Thank You Sir, I have watched this most excellent Video about three times. Each time I have learned a lot. I am an old guy in My 80's. I appreciate Your mild mannered and not too fast video such that I am able to follow along reasonably well. I understand the masking concept, and think it is amazing. Selecting, and switching betweeen units, example making person, then going to a body part is taking me a few times to capture. I do want to Thank You. Unlike a lot of Videos, Yours is so much easier to follwo along. I want to Thank You for this excellent Presntation.

Thanks Tom, you are welcome 👍

This feature is awesome. As a photographer with little time to master Photoshop, I've depended on an online service to do some of this work. But just this week, this Lr feature was so easy and so effective that I was able to do all the edits myself on some family portraits that featured, as RAW images, overexposed sky and underexposed subjects.

Just a tremendous job and opening up the additional little features to me....Many thanks!!!!!

THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO! I'm a big Lightrooom Lrc fan, but not very knowledgable about masking...your information is VERY useful!

I watched other videos on making in LR and yours was the most helpful. I love your concise and calm teaching style. I look forward to watching more and visiting your The School of Photography! Thanks so much!

Excellent video as always nice to see you doing a bit of creative editing. It’s amazing the difference it does make it took me a long time to realise that the editing process is just as important as the photo taken in. I’m not very good with pen and paper, love the sound of your courses, but I don’t know whether I would be able to keep up as my reading and writing are not very good at all. Only reason I am writing this is it’s on a iPad Pro and the predictive text is pretty damn good most of the time thanks a lot. Look forward to your next one.❤

Agreed Masking in LRC is brilliant and far far quicker than any other platform. As shown by your landscape one has to take great care when there is mist or fogs or water reflections - I find that I have to spend time (a lot of time) fixing edges, which one can easily do on the AI generated mask. One has to examine the mask to ensure that the AI has correctly masked or not masked the sky when one has images of trees and other diverse objects; same for hair and feathers.

Is Lightroom free all the time? Because I’ve read so many comment of people that it’s only a 7 days free trial and after that you have to take premium subscription. But the internet is saying that it’s a free app but that you can get access to more tools and presets when you get premium. I’m on a low budget now and cannot afford a premium subscription. I don’t really care for the presets and more tools, as long as I can use the auto, light, color, effect and detail option for free, than I’m cool with it. But please let me know if I can still use the app after the 7 days trial.

I'm hating it to the death. I wish they gave us users an option whether to use the feature or not. I want my simple brush overlay rather than this shit. If I wanted to use overlays I could use photoshop already. This forced change killed my workflow.

£10 per month, what a rip off. lets get back to paying up front for a product . really angry my lightroom cannot be upgraded even if I offer to pay. and giving images to an on line AI, that is madness!
