I never saw the use of outer glow to eliminate outlines before - thanks!

[@Maryville221]

One of our more creative videos. My compliments.

[@WhoCutTheCheese1951]

Great technique to create an artistic black and white architectural image. Thank you for sharing.

[@johnpollock6996]

What a great video Anthony. Howard Roark would have sold himself out to know this.

[@paulasimson4939]

Fantastic technique, thanks!

[@yoga7788]

Great lesson thanks once again bit tricky but eventually got it.

[@ArvindNandanCreation]

Nice one Anthony! Thank you.

[@iaincphotography6051]

Cheers for that one Anthony.

[@photonsonpixels]

Great tutorial Anthony! I had never seen that trick with the outer glow to remove that frustrating white halo. Thank you!

[@andrewmason8691]

I’ve always used Lightroom, but decided to learn PS now. I also use Topaz and Neo as plugins. PS is clearly powerful and glad I’m learning it, but I’m appreciating LR more and more for its simplicity, file management and time saving.

[@mlumenta]

Thank you. You helped me so much. I really enjoy the way you teach.

[@roykropp155]

Very interesting technique. I tried it on a photo of a big leaf maple catkin that I took today. The flower in the original was isolated against a deep blue sky. Turned out nice.

[@uncle0eric]

Cool and fun!

[@Gary_Foto]

Great work!! My mind is blown.

[@dking1981]

Great tutorial

[@timoteiafanasie4894]

Very, very nice. Thank you!

[@lesliebaker2622]

Thanks!

[@AnthonyMorganti]

Thank you Leslie!

[@larrypearl1866]

Maybe you can help me out. I have upgraded to Photoshop 23.3.1 and when I try to use Camera Raw filter the interface is to large for the screen and there is no way to make it smaller. I even uninstalled and re-installed photoshop and no change. I downloaded and installed Camera raw 14.3 with no relief. Can you help me or let me know how to contact Adobe with this problem?

[@realthoprivate]

You don't mind to have your edits "baked in" when adding the stamp layer?

[@leniehulse1621]

👏👏👏

[@ilesmic]

very cool effect

[@barrydillon8801]

A variation on this would be to place the cut out budings out on to a new all black layer in place of the sky

[@leniehulse1621]

Yes, especially since there are no clouds!

[@charlesdavis6371]

very cool

[@maze400]

That was great, how would you do that in Affinity photo?

[@1964ilovebears]

it would have been a fine technique if it had not been for the halo on the right building. It remains in spite of the outer glow edit.

[@mdturnerinoz]

Thanks!

[@AnthonyMorganti]

Thank you again Martin!!
