Thanks for those kind words! I plan on explaining a lot more topics, so stick around :)

This is the first time I understand how curves really work. Until now I’ve dragging up and down trying to get some cool coloring effects but now I understand when and how to use them. Thank you so much. That was brilliant and clearly explained mister.

I have played around with curves in the past, but really didn't have a clue what they were capable of. Pretty sure I can get a handle on them now with this tutorial. Thanks Colin.

Awesome!

I've used curves for years...but I never noticed the command/control + shift + click to set markers on the color channels before. Great, thank you!

omg finally, I found a very good explanation on the curves

I have watched this lesson many times, in fact I open it every time I have a difficult file to process and each time I pick up yet another nuance. It has become the very core of my Photoshop processing.

Excellent tutorial, liked the targeted colour adjustment at the end of the video. Have not seen that done before.

Awesome, I think that is new to a lot of people.

This is by far the best lesson on curves that I have seen. You've explained everything very well. Thank you!

This is the BEST explanation of the curves adj field I've ever seen. I finally understand what it's doing. Thank you

I use curves for shadows and highlights all the time but that color trick just blew my mind!! ; )

Thank you so much for the detailed tutorial on curves, I have never used it before, it has helped me significantly on my edits.

That was awesome! Thank you for putting it so clearly and simply!! Never used the curves before but looking forward to trying it out now! 👍🏻

Best curves tutorial so far! Thank You!

I've just done the basic contrast sliders in Photoshop so curves has opened up a whole new world for me. Really it comes down to playing around (a lot) with curves on different photos and seeing what you like. Also it's important to be able to look at a photo and get an idea of what you want to bring out of it or what you want to do to it. I've taken photos already and used curves/contrast to really darken everything except the side of a person's face and use that for a website look and feel. Your tutorial has caused me to go back and realize that I could pop out more facial features and still keep the darkened feeling of the image. Thank you for doing this video.

This is the best explanation that I ever have on understanding curve. Thank you Colin.

You nailed it thanks for the tutorial

Thank you. Terrific tutorial.

Flawless Colin. As usual!

Very handy tutorial, I learned to anchor the point of the curve where I want to edit. This was new to me and very useful

Appreciate this video. Very good information. Just cracked open the curves rabbit hole this past weekend. This video took me deeper. Thank You

Yes, I was one of those that just used Curves for adjusting the contrast. Now I know how to use it more effectively. Thanks so much!

Thank you for this tutorial Colin, I hardly every use Curves as I found it too intimidating... now that you have explained it so well it all makes perfect sense and I am looking forward to using it a lot more!

thank you SO much for this tutorial!

Great job as usual!

Often use curves but just to adjust shadows and highlights. Your video very enlightening, so will view it again now that I know how powerful curve adjustments can be. Thanks and I look forward to more similar videos.

Thanks. I never really understood Curves up to now. Great video x

I've been using curves for a long time and I picked up some useful tips in your tutorial. There are so many different ways to make adjustments using photoshop I sometimes forget things. I used levels a lot in my processing, but as I learn more and more about curves and it's endless possibilities it is quickly becoming my go to.

Thank you, you're the best teacher for Ps on youtube.

Thanks. Every time I think I understand curves I learn something new. The idea of stacking curves adj layers and doing color and contrast separately was new to me and sounds very useful.

Thank you, Great tutorial!!!

Another excellent tutorial Colin. I always make a mess when I've used the individual channels but hopefully after this tutorial I'm going to use curves properly now.

Thanks for a great video -- esp the color adjustment!

Great tutorial on curve adjustment in PS! I have been using curve adjustment only for simple contrast adjustment until I watched this video. I will definitely explore more using this adjustment on my photos. Thanks Colin!

So many tutorials out there. By far, yours, are the easiest to comprehend. They are extensive - Which I love- but not tiring, much less boring. I wish I found you before when I was learning Photoshop. In any case, there’s always something useful to learn in any of your tutorials. Even your guitar playing is fun to see. Great work Colin!

Love your explanations on curve!

Hi Colin, thank you for explaining how to use curves so well. I did not know how this worked fully before. Love this kind of video learning.

Thanks much Colin. Great tutorials. I have several of your courses & find them to be extremely informative & easy to follow. Your presentation works admirably,

I've been using the adjustment curves for quite some time, however there are some new features in the curves that I have not used and will now. Thanks

Great tutorial. I do use curves and knew about the RGB and colour tones but didn't really understand the input output bit. Now I do AND now know how to target individual areas. Thanks for a great tutorial Colin.

Thanks for this video Colin. I learned a LOT about curves. And yes, I am subscribed and have elected to be notified about new videos. You're a great teacher!

Great tutorial that takes the mystery out of using curves. Thank you!

Thank you. This is an excellent tutorial. You have a way of teaching that doesn’t leave out the beginner.

Lovely video Colin.

Many thanks Colin.

Thank you! I have never used curves and actually understood what I was doing!

Thanks for these tutorials, I use Photoshop and Lightroom for Property photography as well as astrophotography. I watch other people's workflows and try to use them but they usually don't take the time to explain the rationale behind their actions. Your tutorials enable me to fully understand and optimize the actions for my specific purposes. I am going to go through all your stuff I can find!

Thanks for this. I was obviously not using the full capability of curves. I find this specifically helpful for those day images when light is not ideal and shadows are too harsh.

Excellent new perspective on the curces too.

@photoshopCafe that is an awesome tutorial on Curves! just discovered your channel and I am pumped!

Hi Colin, like you say in the video; mostly when I have used curves I've just been dragging around without really understanding the power of it. Very interesting to learn how powerful it is in accurate color editing. As always a great tutorial made in an easy to follow way

Great explanation and made things a little clearer to use properly.

AMAZING!!! So clearly explained-- the best explanation I have found on curves. You understand your audience and help everyone listening to this gain confidence! Thank you!

Catching up on some of your older videos and found this one especially helpful. Best explanation of curves I've seen. Too bad there's so darned much for a casual Photoshop user to remember. 😊

I am very glad I watched your video. I had no idea on how to use curves but now I do. Thanks a lot.

fantastic tutorial

Excellent explanation!

Thanks for this tutorial. I never really knew how to use Curves but this helped me understand them now and how to apply it to photos.

Thanks Colin, I have not understood Curves before that video was a big eye opener, I am not a curves fan. Thank you so much for explaining it so well. The lockdown here in South Africa is very restrictive having your videos and tutorials to watch and keep us busy and positive and hopefully improved our photoshop usage. Thank you for that.

Great job manh!!!! Helped me a lot....

Learned a lot from this video, had messed about with curves but now I know how much you can tweak a photo. Cheers.

I am new to photoshop and was so confused with curves. I am gonna give it a go now. Thank you 😊

4 years into editing and I'll be damned I thought I was using curves correctly and I find out I was so wrong. I'm sure this will make my photos look so much better starting tomorrow. This and the videos of your I have been watching for the last 2 hours I can't wait now until morning to get into my little home studio and apply everything I am learning Colin. I have been watching other videos and not naming anyone as they are great teachers as well but after finding your channel I have learned so much I believe that this will not have me so scared of Photoshop and I will use it so much more and photos will look so much better. Thank you, Colin.

that's is a great tutorial on curves! I loved it.

Using adjustment curves in photoshop for years! Always start with that and may use several stacked. They can always be changed. Gives ultimate control over values. Excellent explanation.

very nice and precise tutorial....thanx a lot

wow, that's very helpful. Thanks so much for the tutorial. I'm going to try it immediately.

Fantastic Tut. Thanks

I have avoided curves for years - using selections instead. That started because I never could get what I wanted out of curves. It's about time I start utilizing curves to fine tune things a bit more and this tutorial did the trick - a lot simpler than I thought! Many thanks!

thanks Colin I use curves all the time but its always good to do a refresher on things as you tend to forget certain functions that you dont use that often. I always find it helpful watching your tutorials as you explain things so well and I pick up bits and pieces that I did not know too. I dont comment very often but I do appreciate your great tutorials.
