Just found your channel. A refreshing change from the short 'how to use this tool' videos. A real masterclass in approach and application techniques. Liked and subscribed, and will now look at your other videos. One query: main street light not lit from left and yet three shadows to the right of it up to the tree?

@jamiermathlin

11 ай бұрын

Thanks for the comment and kind words, as well as your observation regarding shadows. to explain, I do not practice my videos, what you see is me finding my way within a new image and trying to keep the videos below one hour, therefore, they is a tendency to miss a few things. When I process an image to keep, I do revisit them a few times over a couple of days to be sure I have captured everything 😀

Incredible video. You are a true artist. Do you have an art background ? painting ? Your being able to deduce what a night time black-and-white photo should look like is incredible. Enjoyed seeing how well (and how much) you utilitze the Lightroom-ACR masking capability. Congratulations on a really fascinating tutorial.

Thank you for your comment Stan and your kind words, to answer your question regarding being an artist in my background: no not really, however, I do something that I always suggest to fellow photographers to help me understand light and colour, this being 'spend time looking at the world around you, even when you do not have a camera in your hand'. Have a look at some of my other videos, I have many different techniques 😀

Another excellent D2N. Thank you for sharing. Although the 3 shadows in front of the tree were bugging me. I have followed a couple of your D2N videos. I have been trying to illuminate lamps and windows a slightly different way. I have been using the select object(s) tool and then intersecting the selection(s) with the radial selection tool (and then refining it). I think that it works quite well.

@jamiermathlin

Hi Alan, I have tried that myself a few times, but I never seemed to be able to get the look I generally go for, perhaps it needs more practice, it is the blending of the shadows on the window frames that I struggle with. Thanks for the comment, it is very much appreciated 😀

@alandimery3379

Жыл бұрын

@@jamiermathlin I see. When, for example, you have 4 panes of glass in a window, selecting the 4 panes as objects tends to soften the edges of the window frame. Rather than having the harsh line of a brush. I will say that your image lighting is excellent. When you put a shadow below a lamp post, could this be done with a small 'subtract radial mask'?

With your videos in mind, I am looking in another way to the scenerys. Top video, left an abo. I would have removed the three shadows at the left side on the bottom.

Absolute sorcery! One question I have is about the roundtrip to Ps and back - when it returns do you have a tif at that point or is it smart enough to keep everything in DNG? Great tutorial, learned heaps here 👍

@jamiermathlin

11 ай бұрын

Thanks for your kind words, and your question, you can set Photoshop to export back to Lightroom in a number of formats, the most common two are TIFF and PNG, personally I would prefer it export back to DNG, but this is not an option. All the formats are 16 Bit so there is no loss in dynamic range or colour depth 😀

I saw someone saying you should delete the unused gen fill options as they make the file size larger, do you think that is true ?

@jamiermathlin

Жыл бұрын

having multiple layers open does increase the file size when you move back to Lightroom, the TIFF file can get very large, I have experimented with leaving the layers and merging the layers and I do notice a difference. As a result, I work on the logic that if I have created the image as I want it, then I do not need to go back and change it, so less disk space is the preferred route 😀

Great work but didn’t you forget about the shadows of the rubbish bins?
