Brilliant

[@ricksmith8444]

I would think the owner of that restaurant would pay a good amount for that. A wonderful edit as always.

Another tutorial with thumbs up

😮😮😮 I’m always amazed!

Great video, thanks.

Just about to get the new photoshop. I know you shoot in raw all the time, would these effects work with jpegs ?

[@jamiermathlin]

Thanks for the question, the straight answer is all of these techniques will work with JPGs, however, if you are going to take the time to process your own images, it makes complete sense to start with the most dynamic range and colour, a JPG is 8Bit, this means that you have 256 shades of each of the three colours (RGB), giving a total of 16.7 million, and generally the JPG has around 4-5 stops of dynamic range, as the JPG has been created by the camera taking what is a standard algorithm to take the RAW data and make an image. If you shoot RAW (16bit) you will have 65,536 shades per colour, giving a total of Billions of colours, in addition, the RAW images (depending on the camera) have 14-15 stops of dynamic range (this is how I pull all the detail from the shadows!). Therefore, my advice is to get the Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop CC for Photographer package, which is about $10 per month. Import your RAWs into Lightroom and then process them (you can easily swap between Lightroom and Photoshop with the CC pack. I have a video on how to import, just look into my video collection here on KZbin. Also, if you want more information on the difference between JPGs and RAW have a look at this webpage :- www.photoshopessentials.com/essentials/16-bit/

Brilliant :-))))

Amazing, less than 3 months later and all that clone stamp work done in the first 20 minutes can now be done in seconds with generative fill !!!!!

[@jamiermathlin]

It is totally incredible 😀. I will have to remake these older videos now using the new tools !

[@erik1836]

​@@jamiermathlinActually, this video and the others done "the old fashioned way" are incredibly valuable because they teach us the fundamental underpinnings of the techniques and thinking processes you used to affect the effect you affected. I am sure that generative fill could approximate what you did but if we have real understanding of how to produce such results in reality then our repertoire will be far more powerful creatively because we won't have to rely on a lifeless, dead machine generated computers interpretation of what we wish to see.

Another amazing tutorial

[@goranritterfeldt2608]

Very good and pedagogical. Just one question. For me the sun seems a bit to white and strong in comparison with the sky. And placed in front of the clouds…? Take care Göran from Latvia

[@jamiermathlin]

many thanks for the comment 🙂

[@gingetaylor4489]

Brilliant video, top work, Serge Ramilli is one of my 'online' instructors. Well done.

[@gingetaylor4489]

We have quite a bit in common, we're both Engineers, we're both sporting whiskers and of a certain age, we probably found Serge around the same time as well. Thanks for the videos, very educational.

[@peterrothwell4964]

I've just discovered you wow love your content more please!

[@jamiermathlin]

thank you Peter 🙂

[@telkirton]

Seen this Jamie a few weeks ago or is this a update of the first one?

[@jamiermathlin]

I posted the first image only on my facebook page no video, so I thought I would show the tutorial on how it was done, complete with the RAW image being available to download and follow along 🙂. Well spotted !!

[@simonryan6850]

What if you don’t have luminar pro?

[@jamiermathlin]

it can be done with radial filters in Lightroom, see this video for creating a sun 😀. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iXiupJeciamojK8

[@simonryan6850]

Just watched your night to day adding the water, no idea where are you come up with your days from God they’re pretty good

[@tiaoat2013]

Jamie…couple of questions on the editing of this image. 1) When removing the bollards and a few of the small posts you used the clone stamp. In previous editing tutorials you almost always tried the spot healing tool. Why the difference this time? 2) In previous editing tutorials you many times used the radial gradient around lamps and then used the subtract brush and your shift click process to remove unwanted portions of the gradient. In this tutorial you just used the radial gradient and did not subtract things outside the lamp or outline the framework of the lamp. Why?

[@jamiermathlin]

good questions :-) in answer:- 1. When you have smooth surfaces or very random surfaces, such as the orange wall and the cobbles, the stamp tool works better than the healing tool. The healing tool works better when the background is more abstract. 2. When the lamps are already illuminated they have a glare to them, and you will notice the rays of light coming from them, in this situation you use a full radial and do not subtract, you only use the subtraction technique when the lamps are not illuminated 🙂. Hope this helps

[@tiaoat2013]

Thank you Jamie. Makes sense.
