Todays image was sent to me by Stephen Long, who won “photo of the year” with it at his local camera club.

So I hope I did the RAW file justice with my processing 🙂

The main focus of this video is the work I did in the clouds to make them stand out and look a bit more menacing!

The image used in this demonstration was sent in by James Ruse (thanks James!). It was a beautiful image to work with, with the beautiful sunrise colours of the sky being reflected in the still lake in the foreground.

There were a couple of challenges however, and a few main levers to pull in order to get the best out of the photo in Photoshop. These are the areas I concentrated on in this demo, staying true to the 80/20 rule.

This video gives you some simple techniques that show how to make colors pop in Adobe Photoshop CC 2019.

If you’re looking to make your photos stand out from the crowd and have the wow factor, then you’re in the right place 🙂

This is episode 20 of my Processing Subscriber Images series and you can see the full playlist here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj-ISJukb5Ao_-k9V1guAeYIm-HfbogaE

The image was sent in to me by John Wright, who captured three bracketed exposures of Uluru and wanted to know how to make the sky pop without blowing out the foreground and subject.

The critical piece of the puzzle was creating selections that could be used to isolate adjustment layers to specific areas of the photo by brushing through the selections and into the adjustment layers’ masks.
