Doing some day to night and I am quite pleased with the results I am producing! Learning a lot from your videos. I had been using only Lightroom but I have been dabbling a bit with Photoshop since I started watching your videos. Thank you for your instruction!.

Another meticulous masterpiece

[@jamiermathlin]

thank you 😀

[@PhreddCrintt]

This is the first time I've come across your work Jamie and can categorically state that this is the finest piece of layer-related instruction I have ever seen. I have watched SO many YT videos on the subject and - without exception - they have left me none-the-wiser. I cannot thank you enough. You have a new subscriber for sure!

[@jamiermathlin]

I am so happy to hear this, and I am also glad that I have been able to explain layers in a helpful way 😀 welcome aboard !!

I am absolutely in love with your tutorials, I am learning so much thank you Jamie..

[@jamiermathlin]

You are so welcome! I a so glad that you like them and are learning things, comments like yours make me want to make more videos :-)

[@michaelpitt3640]

Just Brilliant! If only I could get a transfusion of your knowledge of light.

[@jamiermathlin]

😀 I learned the art of light painting through spending time looking at light, how it illuminates, derived from different sources, the sun, the moon, street lights, and how shadows are cast each, but at the end of the day it is all about practice 😀you can learn it as well !

[@4477cd]

Great video! Keep up the fiddling! I really enjoy your videos!

Hi Jamie, Another masterpiece! I don’t know if I can ever master your attention to detail in the way light flows in a scene; you set the bar really high! Cheers, Peggy

[@jamiermathlin]

Thank you Peggy for your kind words, your support is much appreciated. My advice is to keep practicing, you can do it 😀

[@jaimee.campuzanot.2702]

Thank you very much Jamie, very nice tutorial, best regards!

You are very welcome, thank you for taking the time to leave a comment 😀

[@stephengibbons]

Great video Jamie, I see GF is out of beta, but still only low res, hope it changes soon.

[@jamiermathlin]

Yes, it is now available in the standard Photoshop, but as you say remaining lo-Res 1024 x 1024 pixels only. But as I show in my videos, do small areas one at a time and it can work very well. 😀

[@1411JN]

You really have helped a lot of aspiring photographers including myself bring their post processing to the next level. The step by step process is so clear and simple and no photography jargon if I may say. So inspiring. I would like to share my day to night photo that I have captured in Colmar for you to critique but I don't know where to send.

[@jamiermathlin]

thank you for your kind words, I would also be happy to critique your photos and send them to my Facebook page as a message :- facebook.com/JRMathlin. 😀

Hi Jamie, Superb video again, have had one attempt at a night BW ... Not that happy with it feel I could do better, hence watching your picking up tip, your doing a great job thank you very much...Colin Devon..

[@jamiermathlin]

Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment Colin, it is appreciated. I hate to say this but, Practice, Practice, Practice.... that is the name of the game 😀 the more you do something the better you will be at it. If you would like me to critique then send your image as a message in facebook, best regards Jamie. facebook.com/JRMathlin

[@colinyoung9432]

Yes do understand that Jamie, love your videos. Colin Devon...

[@rolandrickphotography]

Thanks for another amazing dtn tutorial and the photograph we might use to follow along. This one I will try for sure. And remove also the ugly cranes in the background left and right to the candelabra at the very back from which you removed the stickers 😊

[@jamiermathlin]

you have eagle eyes Roland 😀I do struggle to keep the videos to under an hour, but you are right I should have removed them during my 'remove tool' moment 🙂 that is a problem with these high-megapixel photographs, they should everything!

[@rolandrickphotography]

@@jamiermathlin 😂 Jamie, I fully understand. When I’m working on such an image, it takes me at least 3 or 4 hours, always trying this and that 😆🙈. Besides, I have a hint for you, instead of deleting the layer at 22:15 you might click on „Flatten image“ and all layers are merged into one proper background (meaning the special type of layer, not simply typed „background“) layer. That’s my workflow, I keep all layers during editing, that makes it possible to fix final glitches if you find some at the end of edit. The very last step is „Flatten image“. That has a huge impact on the file size also. 😅

[@bemerk1200]

I enjoyed the way you edit. Hope I can apply what I learned to a photo of mine. Thanks for posting.

[@jamiermathlin]

I am delighted to hear that you enjoyed the video 😀

[@ahkammontaj5465]

A truly excellent explanation, I was personally impressed. I am very happy that I came across your channel on YouTub because I have a lot of problems with filtering. I hope you will work on a portrait soon.

[@jamiermathlin]

I am so happy that I can be of help 😀

I truly love your work and I am learning so much! Thank you!

[@jamiermathlin]

Thank you Jeff, your comment is very much appreciated 😀

[@mikehughes6366]

Brilliant as ever Jamie! Can I just ask, what computer set up do you have? You seem to be able to have unlimited masks on your images!

[@jamiermathlin]

Hi Mike, I use a MacBook Pro 16" with M1 Max Processor and 32GB of RAM, 1TB SSD. I changed over from Windows machines a few years ago, as regardless of how much RAM or CPU power you have Lightroom always slowed down after 10 or so Radials, a friend recommended Apple and lent me his machine for a month, and it was frankly a game changer. The problem with comparisons between Windows and Mac's on KZbin is that they use benchmarks to test performance, if you use benchmarks then windows machines always seem very comparable, but when you use them yourself for work you realise. Also, bare in mind that I am screen recorded at 4k at the same time as doing the processing. I can even render a 4K video in the background at the same time if I want to and the fan hardly comes on, and it can all be done on battery if needed and you still get 6-8 hours, The new M-chip Macs are frankly astounding!

[@hogartp]

Hi Jamie Thank you very much for your excellent tutorials. I think I must check several days a week to see if you’ve made any new tutorials. I really like your technique where you have light casting from a light source like a street light that’s out of the frame. Thank you Pat Hogarty from El Dorado Hills, California.

[@jamiermathlin]

I wish I had more time Pat to make tutorials more often, sadly this remains a hobby, but I would love to do it as my main occupation, maybe one day 😀

[@stevejudge4068]

Inspiring

[@jamiermathlin]

Thank You :-D

[@7062LA]

Amazing Tutorial. Thank you! I have a question... what photo file do you first use to edit in LR? it looks like it is an ARW file?

[@jamiermathlin]

ARW and CR3 are Sony and Canon RAW file formats. So when I import into Lightroom I use the 'copy' function, not the 'copy as DNG' option, then I can work directly with the RAW file, hope this is helpful 😀

[@7062LA]

Thank You!@@jamiermathlin

[@beatmakerarmetsao]

:) best of the best

[@jamiermathlin]

thank you 😀

[@ASMPHOTO]

Thank You! When can we purchase your skies? Not able to photograph at night because of work. This will be very helpful!

[@jamiermathlin]

I have almost completed the nighttime skies, hopefully within a few weeks, I will release a video when they are ready 😀

[@simonryan6850]

Could I ask if you’re using a Wacom Pro or just your apple mouse?

[@jamiermathlin]

Thanks for the questions, I just use the trackpad on my MacBook pro 16" 😀

[@simonryan6850]

I’ll admit I’ve had mine for about getting on for ten years now, I used to have mampped for what I needed but of late I’m not getting the use out of it that I used to hence I find it much easier to use my Apple mouse 3 but I guess it’s horses for courses

[@DMW5533]

This is amazing did I hear a girls voice in the background? Are you doing live photo edits now with questions live. I know there is a time difference but i subscribed and clicked notifications so if you are doing live i never got notified. To bad I would of loved to watch you work live

[@jamiermathlin]

A couple of my videos have been done live, but not this one, it may have been the wife in the background 😀 The videos I did live are here on my channel, they were originally done for Serge Ramelli's channel, covering for him while he was away traveling. .

[@DMW5533]

@@jamiermathlin I am wondering at your thoughts on how photoshop generative AI is going to cost more you will only get 100 credits per month and every AI you use will cost one credit you have the option of buying 100 extra credits per month for $5 U.S. or have the option of running out of credits and they slow down the processing time of generative AI so what now takes 1 min could take 15 min when your credits run out I am not sure how i feel about this and with the amount of generative Ai things you did in this last image if would of cost about 20 credits for one image what are your thoughts. I am of course talking about this based on the photographer’s bundle with 20gb

[@jamiermathlin]

@@DMW5533 Now the dust has settled a little, and we have a clearer picture of how Adobe are going to charge for their server time in respect to Generative Fill, I thought I would answer your question; as you may know there was a lot of people who responded to adobe about this issue, and Adobe also started to see people leave them, due to what was seen as another money grab, so for the moment they have not introduced a restriction for using Generative Fill, it is not currently clear what their plan is for 2024, but I will keep an eye on it, and if there are major changes, I will try to report them in one of my future videos. For now use the features as much as you like 😀

[@DMW5533]

Thank you Jamie I appreciate you keeping an eye on this and I haven’t watched your latest video yet but i am sure it will be interesting with all the lights

[@andrewhillphotosvideos2909]

I wished my removal tool in lightroom worked like your in photoshop Beta

[@jamiermathlin]

yes, I am afraid that the Lightroom healing tool does not have the power of the PS removal tool, would be great if they could fix that !!

[@aberhalllllo]

Vielen Dank für die DNG-Datei und ich werde versuchen ein ähnliches Ergebnis wie du zu erzielen. Danke! Grüße aus Old Germany

[@jamiermathlin]

Vielen Dank, dass Sie sich die Zeit genommen haben, einen Kommentar zu hinterlassen. Wir freuen uns sehr darüber und wünschen Ihnen viel Glück bei der Bearbeitung des Bildes 😀

[@mikebice3670]

These types of edits make the photo look like a fake backdrop you would hang in your studio.

[@jamiermathlin]

thanks for the feedback Mike, it is much appreciated 🙂

[@hanswi336]

The remove tool is for pedantics ... you forgot a spot on the lamp post! To me the whole edit is a little bit too much fiddling around

[@jamiermathlin]

thank you for the comment, I will try to do a video with a little less fiddling 😀

[@eeanderson49]

​@@jamiermathlin...you just keep fiddling you master. By the way a young musician from Tennessee (or maybe it was Ireland) was asked what was the difference between playing a fiddle versus a violin. He responded "Fiddles have strangs, violins have strings."

[@frankweber356]

Natural ? Sorry.....but it looks like a completely computer rendered Playstation 4 or 5 Playground.....very strange to my eyes, but as a fantasy computer pic, it´s very nice.

😀

[@michaelmcphee2930]

While the result is a lovely shot and interpretation an hour is a long time to get to the point for something that would take ten or fifteen minutes maximum without the commentary. My attention span is longer than a gold fishes and maxes out at twenty minutes. Nice job all the same

[@jamiermathlin]

I appreciate the feedback, as you can imagine, it is very difficult to ensure that I have detailed explanations as well as ending up with a presentable image, a real balancing act 😀

[@michaelmcphee2930]

@@jamiermathlin absolutely mate. Not a criticism just a comment. One of the better photos I've seen in a while. Though I would have pruned the scrappy tree in the mid background and probably removed the barrier fence on the footpath one section at a time.

[@billyendo]

Please do not alter length of the video. While an hour is a while, it was a thorough explanation and I most appreciated you taking the time to explain each step. You've found a good balance. It was perfect! Thank you. It is my first time to watch one of your videos and I loved it. I am now a subscriber and look forward to watching all of your older and ond new ones to come.
