[@kvocal]

By far the best video I have seen for frequency separation today. Very easy to understand and it made sense.

[@bombatpam]

I am glad to knowthat :)

[@adalencar]

I don't usually comment but I had to here my friend. There are dozens of FS tutorials out there but yours is by far the simplest way to get it accomplished, the others over complicate the process way too much. Congratulations and thank you very much!

[@jerry.cray_II]

SUPER!

[@bombatpam]

Many of You probably heard about this great retouch technique and today I am going to show You everything to make Your retouch work much easier! Frequency separation makes your work in photoshop much faster and easier. It allows you to separate the texture of an image from the color. So you can retouch all blemishes from your portrait easily without loosing an original texture of the image! After this retouch skin in the portrait will be smooth, clean and natural as never!

[@hellosans]

[@Greatjunior]

Great tutorial

[@stevenmeansphotography3861]

Question.. so when doing this so you select parts of the forehead at time to do or can you do the entire forehead at once

[@hanschara]

Great!!! Technic!!! Thanks...

[@streetlights_1155]

This helped so much! Most other tutorials are way too fast and I can't keep up.

[@stevenmeansphotography3861]

Do you do small parts of the forehead at a time or can your do the entire forehead once

[@rleanos]

Tried it and was successful. Thx

[@waheedmughal6053]

thanx give me totorial print setings

[@miramezjr]

thankyou so much for this tutorial! god bless u!

[@bombatpam]

Miramez Jr Thank You :)

[@qqueuenstein5616]

Well done. This is a complicated subject, and you explained nicely. Phlearn is also a fantastic resource, probably the best around.

[@Snoopies622]

When I choose the "low" layer at 4:45, instead of seeing a ghostly face I only get a blank, grey screen. Then when I try to apply the Gaussian blurs with all three layers visible and the white box around the low layer, no matter where I set the blur level there is no difference to the skin at all. Are these two things related? What am I doing wrong?

[@godgiftasuquo5346]

Kindly share the link were i can download the Frequency separation action

[@pradipanp]

Great work

[@Spinx9]

the Offset 128 sets the neutral gray so the image can pass through

[@Allleene]

Hello, I hope you reply back because Im having trouble whenever I make a boo boo and need to erase a tiny detail. I end up erasing the whole image. What can I do to prevent that? Thanks.

[@JChaloteamhotmailcom1991]

Thank you very much sir!

[@SomeoneHere2007]

Thanks and you are super exited

[@Rifgat]

big thanks from Russia. Just one question. You mentioned about 16 bit... I got that about ADD and INVERT... but... the question is = WHICH BLENDING MODE???? Linear does not do the same effect... (( you just cannot see through it..

[@BilianaBiBiShiBiBiShaN1111]

Thank You 🙌

[@didarhossain6557]

Nice work

[@damianjanicki7529]

Dziekuje Marcinie☺

[@josephyyyy]

hey great video, could you apply this technique to product images such as jewellery / clothing? ?

[@bombatpam]

I wouldnt recommend that :) I always use just clone stamp on products.

[@sanjaivancic3764]

Thanks man, I appreciate

[@sylvianguyen73]

Hi there, this video is very helpful however, when I select the skin for feather, and then filter and gaussian blur, it turns the skin gray and not 'soft clean skin'. I am selecting the 'low' layer, and everything is the same as your steps. Please help. Thanks.

[@bombatpam]

+Sylvia Nguyen Hey Silvia, You might be pulling up gaussian blur too much. It has to be always adjusted to the size of the image. Otherwise when You're going to pull up the gaussian too much it's going to turn greyish.

[@sylvianguyen73]

+Sylvia Nguyen - @photoshop Tutorials, you're the best!! Thank you, it worked :)

[@9thnwalnut]

mind-blowing. Awesome. Love it!

[@bombatpam]

Thank You :)

[@yonggary4650]

thank u from china

[@lorenzomartin6217]

good tutorial!

[@pedroheilel130]

Hey, Marcin, thanks for your video. It was really nice from you to give credit to Aaron from Phlearn - I learned how to do this with him as well... Let's share knowledge!!

[@Atheer_alnasrawi]

Thank you

[@Alexandahls]

Help! When I do the Gaussian Blurring in the 'low' layer it doesn't soften the skin. It only either darkens or lightens the skin.

[@bombatpam]

You might be doing something wrong or just pushing up radius too much.

[@jaygadgetrepairshop4378]

wow!! you are cool man,, thankyou

[@noeliapiper1995]

The only thing i am having trouble with the grouping the layers I think i heard him say Control+Alt+Command+G? can anyone tell me whats the buttons to press for a MacBook Pro? Thank you :)

[@cianocancino8315]

hi i notice when im doing a gaussian blur and increasing the radius my selected image is getting dark.how can i fix it>thnx

[@bombatpam]

+ciano cancino You're adding to much gaussian blur :)

[@XavierLAC]

That model is very pretty.

[@anityyu]

extremely basic face that you see everywhere if you ask me

[@MJAUBE]

Trying this out but when i go to the lasso tool and try to selecting the whole layer just moves cant select :/

[@MJAUBE]

I got it thank you this is amazing I work on baby skin

[@thstone4109]

For some reason when I lasso an area and then do gausian blur, it just turns darker. I don't know why. Can you pls help?

[@renacahill]

mine does the same. have tried 3 tutorials on this technique and get the same dark result on all. doesn't retouch at all but goes dark. photoshop CC

[@SupraptoMegantara]

Great tutorial.. thanks

[@shameenashameem]

thank you... its very helpful tutorial....

[@nenolima5595]

great... thanks a lot

[@RevoltAman]

actually a nice work... :)

[@antonioivagnes]

Hi, please could you help me solve a problem? I'm trying to follow your tutorial to edit a photo with Photoshop CS6 unfortunately happens that when I do IMAGE_APPLY IMAGE... the layer HIGH becomes black, and in the window I not have the option FREQUENCY.jpg bat the name of the image. What happens??? Thank you and congratulations for the tutorial.

[@bombatpam]

Antonio Ivagnes Hi my firend. In the source You should not have name frequency.jpg but the name of Your image. If You do everything like me it all should be alright. Please check if You have 8 bit or 16 bit image. If it's 16 bit the scale will be 2 and offset 0. Then istead of subtract will be add and check invert box ;)

[@user-qz5je8xk7c]

hey dude you probebly i had a problem where it says warning pixels are more than 50% selected the selection edges will not be visible. can you pls relpy!

[@bombatpam]

You must lower the feather on Your selection. You image is just to slow to add high values into that :)

[@user-qz5je8xk7c]

Ok thank you very much!

[@muslimahbd]

wow osam video i like that

[@bombatpam]

kunjan detroja Thank You :)

[@rrobyfirman8064]

Thank you so much for this easy tutorial. Im subcribe ur channel now. :D

[@sharmaji-zm5wf]

nice work sir thanks

[@FrandyCodes]

Good video for learning! Thanks for sharing with us your Technique! But maybe for actual photo retouching it's too overdone, shadows were lost from the image and maybe smaller edits would have a better effect in keeping character of her face without losing dimension

[@YOJIMMIE]

Hi, your course that I recently took now has a problem with video playback, I did email support, they do not play on Chrome, firefox, and IE , you can hear sound but no video, maybe you can look into that to see how many people are affected, thanks

[@bombatpam]

+Hugh Mobley Thank You Hugh! I will check it out straight away. Thanks a lot. Also, I got Your email and I will message You about that (I meant the image).

[@MusAbdesslemTh3Mus]

Thank you Brother

[@dangpham8442]

where download image, pls?

[@almaz0tto]

nice!

[@tangzwire]

I think this method is very good and time saving, but when you work with the LF - it is good to maybe reduce the opacity of the LF layer, since smoothering it out with Gaussian blur, it looks too smooth.

[@humbertomoraes5056]

TOP!

[@kimsleno7005]

Great video, very concise and easy to follow.

[@serojg]

Am i the only one doing this as you explain? when you do the apply image, by choosing "low" layer first and selecting "subtract" then choosing "high" layer and selecting subtract (without clicking on OK), in fact you didn't apply anything to the "low" layer. after that when you apply effect "linear light" to the "high" image what I see is the blur image of "low" layer but what you see is the clean original image!!!! so when I do selecting and making blur the structure disappears and all I see is a blur image. can you explain what I did wrong? I watched and redo this 3 times, same result.

[@赵亮-q2g]

Cross wall for me,haha is so good

[@aoltrelu1045]

man, in 8 minutes you've created two layers !!!!!!!!!!

[@cjw9979]

You just need to now use the 'normal' pain brush on the low freq layer and paint back in the colours as its looks too flat here. Its a great effect though, but really needs the colours and contours painting back in... I think

[@catalynp]

the secrets fot a good fs are: both gaussian blur settings must be the same ! Settings for gaussian blur 5-25 . Settings for feather 5-10 . 5 for large portrait....10 for close up potrait !

[@TanvirAhmed-iw8hs]

can i get this picture?? thanks for the tutorial (Y)
