Dramatically Shape the Light and Mood Using Adjustment Brushes in Lightroom

[@DaDoctorJ]

This is not the right way, this is also not the wrong way, this is my personal way, your way might be different. Liked the video right there, no matter what comes next.

press "H" to hide the pins press "J" to show the areas that are too bright or too dark press "/" to show before and after press "K" for adjustment brush

yeah, not to mention he's doing all that while coping with the sweating.

this dude is a amazing teacher

[@georgetsangarakis1860]

I had to pause the video 4 minutes in to just comment and say I AGREE!! He's fantastic and I so appreciate the encouragement.

I like how he put himself under the "navigator" arrow.

It's difficult to find anyone else on youtube who explains everything so good. I just love your tutorials! Amazing, I mean AMAZING :)

[@aaz148a]

"Photography is an art, and so is image processing", boy, you are really a true teacher! Subscribed and Faved! keep up the excellent work

[@LtRyanPYT]

'You are the artist.' I'm not sure why that hit so hard! Thank you for reinforcing the fact that what we do is ART, and each artist 'paints' differently. It's hard to pioneer in this day and age, especially with the seeds planted by most nowadays due to social media and ease of access. Loved that comment.

[@gadingb.7704]

I love the way he appreciate another people along his narration. Love the video.

[@bobw222]

I learned more about working in lightroom by watching this video carefully than I have in watching many hours of videos by others. You not only show the tool, but explain when and why to use it. Excellent video.

[@austinshearwood5595]

I love that you make a point of saying “there is no right way, there is no wrong way.” Because at the end of the day, editing photos is an artistic outlet that every individual handles slightly differently.

[@kreativbeetle7837]

These are not tutorials. These are classes! Best photoshop lessons I've had. Thank you.

[@mista589]

The world needs more people like this guy, just rang the bell, thank you!

[@Pierraxl]

Why is this video the best i've seen on your channel for the last 4 years !

[@LeontiosSakellis]

Im using Lightroom for years and years.... Today I've learned a few things I didnt knew! Cheers mate, one of the best channels in KZbin about photography! You have my subscribe!

[@josephmuriithi7129]

The sound is so crisp! I also admire the way you ask the questions and answer them right away. Fantastic job

[@Budfrog23]

Without doubt one of the very best LR tutorials available - thanks and well done on your style of presentation which is so easy to follow

[@rohitsood4251]

I accidentally tripped in to your videos. You have uncanny ability to mix the basics with advanced tech in photoshop and lightroom and that brings clarity to what you suggesting specially for photoshop novices like me. Kudos to you.

[@gwhitt555]

Of all the vids I've watched on this subject, you are easily understandable. Fast, yet articulate. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and talent.

Best Lightroom instruction I have seen, can't wait to view more

[@hammadali971]

I am beginner in editing but i have learnt a lot about editing and tools through this video and the guy is actually enjoying his work the best content great channel and a lovely teacher.

[@jesseb.8171]

You seem like a very nice person. For years I was told to adjust the Whites and Blacks as you explained. I finally realized that wasn't the way to do it for ME (NOT others). With the exception of white and black clipping, you do a very nice job.

[@ScottLawPhotography]

I thought I knew Lightroom okay, but your tutorials make me 10 times as smart. I LOVE all the little extra details with the keyboard shortcuts and so on. I'll be watching this again and again along with so many other of yours. THANK YOU!!!!!!!

[@russellschundler6559]

Nice, helpful video. I very much agree with you that the first step is to think through what you want as your end result ... then use the tools to move to that end. It is an artistic expression. At one time, I was jealous of the freedom a artist/painter had. No more. We have such wonderful and powerful tools!

[@williamshapingart9030]

This guy always blows me away! So many tips and hidden features I had no idea of!

[@Jorge_Rodriguez83]

Great tutorial Unmesh! It is also fantastic that you explain what each option in Lightroom is used for and their effect. I find that I always learn something from your tutorials.

[@drewclevenger3648]

His stuff in our photoshop group on Facebook is unreal. Unmesh is a phenomenal teacher.

[@tremulumdivinorum3554]

best adobe channel so far...this channel needs more subscribers. With your channel i started from 0 ZERO! and now im doing lot of decent workflow. Thanks you man! wish i could help your channel in any way to retrieve a bit what you gave me. cheers

I could seriously watch your videos all day

This is too much editing for my style but I learned so many things from this video. I’m seriously impressed. What a fantastic teacher. This guy is the bob ross of Lightroom.

[@mariadelcarmenrodriguezlin4621]

[@jeffreywillis9313]

One of the best explanations of using Lightroom features I have seen. Very well done!

[@that_screaming_R6]

I've been using LR for years and learned more in this video than I have on dozens of others combined! Cheers

[@jpdj2715]

Dear Mr. Unmesh, sir, photography is an art. I agree to a point, in that each form of art has its technical details that we need to master before we can be a master in that art. As a painter it helps to understand different brushes, pigments or dyes and binders that turn pigments into paint, or ink or pastels or watercolors. The approach to exposure and what relates to that seems like there is a randomness associated. The order does not matter, you imply. As I worked more than 45 years with manual camera settings, I have now opened up to "expose for the highlights". And Lightroom opens my images as if they are underexposed. This is expected, by the way, I'm not complaining. The camera has given me several f-stops with minimal numbers of associated pixels (almost no height in the histogram). And I have lost no highlight details. Now I can choose what range of highlights I still want to have details and what not. This is done with the "white point" that I can lower. And here we get to the point of "sequence" as an efficiency subject. Adjustments to anything related to exposure are made by Lightroom relative to black point and white point. Capture One (C1 - v 20) does not do it like that and that is totally annoying to me. In LR, make exposure and color adjustments and next change the white point and you have to start all over again. In C1, changing black and white points is not fixed can drives me nuts. Morale: in LR adjust white and black points first. Now you have defined to Lightroom what, in your raw image, should be black [0,0,0] and white [255,255,255] and note that anything that used to be whiter than your new white point will be equally white from here on (vice versa for black). C1 keeps shifting that, when you change exposure details. (in my text, "exposure" relates to the Basic, Tone Curve, HSL/Color, Color Grading, Detail, Effects and Calibration panels - these all relate to each other.) If your LR histogram indicates you can rise the black point and/or lower the white point, start there, or you may be running in infinite loops. In general, there is no single right way, true. Except exceptions - but these do not refute the general rule.

[@roycerichardsphoto]

You are the man bro!!! For Real!! I have never left a comment on a KZbin video before, but I have learned so much from your videos that it just wouldn't be right not to. Thank you!
