This is a lot easier and just as effective and using layer mask plug ins. I do use plug ins but this is a great way for most of the images that need exposure blending.

Thank you for this! I tried installing gimp as it was free spend most of a day watching tutorials to do this exact thing with a night scape and couldn't make the program work as intended, Installed PS and watched this got it done in 10 minutes. knew is was better off the the adobe product as I already use Lightroom.

Is this still best/easiest way to exposure blend or do you have an updated video? Amazing stuff btw!! gas prices going back down so I’ll be heading out, been a while. Appreciate the content!!

Thanks Mike, I still use this method a lot as I find it the easiest. Luminosity Masks are the best way to blend, but creating them can be tricky. You can buy add ons that make the process easier. Check out “TK Luminosity Masks”. Have fun, and thank you 👍🏼

Nice photos. Have you tried blending using Blend If sliders? I think it would be a little easier than a luminosity mask. Or perhaps doing a merge to HDR from Camera Raw or Lightroom. Great job on the video.

@@sandeepjoshi660 thanks for the advise. I had a bit of a play around with blend if, and must admit I didn’t get a smooth blend as quickly, and it appears a bit more involved than what I use. Seems like a good option thou. It would be great for completely replacing a sky. I’ll have a play around and see what results I can get 👌🏼

great video! how to blend in when you have three exposures to blend in. the first two are obviously under and overexposed and the third one with a proper exposure.

This technique will still work with 3 exposures. I pretty much stopped taking 3 exposures a while ago as I’ve found two to be enough, and easier to work with. 👌🏼

Any tips on how to blend the foreground/sky intersection seamlessly around the spaces between trees with leaves? (Especially when the tree is blowing in the wind between the different frames.)

@photosonthebay9341

2 жыл бұрын

Good question. That is one of the hardest things to get right. I have another video on complex blending. Basically use the “Blend if” method. With multiple exposures in the wind, choose one slightly underexposed image and work from that. Multiple exposures are not ideal under windy conditions. I am actually working on a video now “How to get the most out of a single exposure”.

Im on the brush with the mask selected and it just paints over the whole image, it doesnt get affected by the mask?

@photosonthebay9341

Maybe just start over. Be careful not to click anything once the luminosity mask is activated. I still use this same process and works fine 👌🏼. Good luck.

I thought once you use the Luminosity Mask to select certain area, the brush won't paint over the unselected area. Otherwise what's the point.

@photosonthebay9341

2 жыл бұрын

Luminosity Masks paint over all areas depending on how strong the mask is. The point is you get a much smoother transition. The stronger the mask, the less that gets revealed. If you are looking at not painting over a certain area, you probably don’t want to use Luminosity Masks. Check out my selective Blending video. 👍🏼

2:01 I would just copy and paste it then no alignment is needed. So even easier.
