    Very nice! I wanted to try the oil pant with the same values you put but when I wanted to do a screen shot they were blurry so I couldn't see them well. Could you please send a screen shot with the values? Thank you.

    Thanks, Lori. I haven’t had much luck with color grading but you offer some new ideas there plus the two other methods. Much appreciated. Some are saying the calibration tools at the bottom also help. Again, not much luck with that.

    Hi Lori - Thanks for sharing this editing technique with us, it's great to learn of new techniques and I really like the outcomes of your editing. A favour to ask please; In your second image you edited, you mentioned that you added shadows to the flat lay flowers. Have you made a video of how to do this by any chance? Thank-You 😊

  • @lorilankfordphotography
    @lorilankfordphotographyАй бұрын

    Thank you for the kind note. I would have done a linear gradient to add some shadows - but that is a great topic for a video. I will add to my list.

    @@lorilankfordphotography Thank you for your reply! I don’t think I know how to properly ask the question. Whenever I try to use a brush on a layer, it always just puts a streak of black or a streak of white on my image and doesn’t do that, lol. I think I need to look into it more and figure out what I’m doing wrong, lol.
