GOODBYE PHOTOSHOP? This HIDDEN BUTTON in Lightroom CHANGES EVERYTHING!

#lightroom #photoshop #selection #mask
The new Masking Section added into Lightroom was a BIG DEAL! But...did you know there's a Hidden Button that makes it EVEN BETTER by giving way more control? In this video I show ow we can use this hidden function to realistically add drama to skies, add Special Effects, light a Macro Shot AND add Highlights to a Portrait!

[@bernieaugot9747]

[@Don_DeMarco]

I ended up learning about the intersect function by just trying things out and your video educated me more about it. Lightroom is so useful that I only go into Photoshop when I need to do some really deep or detailed editing that isn’t available in Lightroom, such as liquify and other filters.

[@glyndewis]

Yeah totally with you there Domonic; Lightroom continues to get better and better

[@jgerard]

Thanks for sharing this tip - I was using the intersect tool for basic edits like adding a colored spotlight behind the subject in a portrait, but you shared some great new ways to use the tool! Love learning new techniques that can be applied immediately to my workflow.

[@glyndewis]

Cheers John...glad it's useful

[@STUDIOLEX]

One of the best LRC video's I have seen in a long time! Thanx for sharing this content!

[@jimsmith556]

Yes, this changes everything. No more haloing, spillover, etc. Thanks Glyn

[@glyndewis]

So useful and such a great time saver 👍🏻

[@TheSynthnut]

As a user of the mobile version I’ve been achieving the process using masks and adding/subtracting and inverting. A dedicated button would be great, but you can still get there in LRm thankfully! It’s certainly a very powerful tool, just wish there was some control added to the select subject process as it sometimes misses bits...

[@glyndewis]

With it all being very new to Lightroom what we have at the moment is certainly very impressive, and is only going to get better and better 👍🏻

[@richritter]

It's almost like creating a controlled selection layer mask in Photoshop, without having to do all the detailed selection work! Brilliant Glyn! This is going to save me a whole lot of work! THANKS!!

[@glyndewis]

Glad you like it Rich and yeah such a great time saver and works a treat 👍🏻

[@stretchini]

Great class Glyn! I'm finding the Intersect funtion easier to understand the more use it. Impressive!

[@stanspb763]

Lightroom was transformed with the refinements to select subject and masking, and each update adds functionality. I have not opened Photoshop in months with my portrait work. Thanks for more information in intersect. I tried using it for dodging and burning on faces and with a little experimenting, it worked great and 3 times faster than with PS.

[@glyndewis]

That's great to hear...cheers Stan

[@speel1959]

I've not used Lightroom for over a year now but after seeing this I'm keen to see what other great options I've missed. Thanks as always Glyn for keeping us up to date with new developments, this is indeed a game changer. 👍🙏👍

[@Jana-BrandenburgerPflanze]

@Edward Li : I couldn't agree more

[@Jana-BrandenburgerPflanze]

Best tutorial I have seen for quite some time. Thank you soooo much Glyn for sharing.

[@glyndewis]

That'a very good of you to say ... thanks; glad you like it 👍🏻

[@Charift]

Thanks Glyn , I always wanted to quickly edit the skin colors and maybe grass colors , pants , add exposure and contrast effect to the floor only ( always comes inspired by your quick mask explanation but using color range , or by selecting subjects and exclude the masks off of them ) its been years since I found an easy and fast way to edit my photos outside photoshop

[@glyndewis]

Lightroom is certainly getting some great updates lately ... exciting times ahead and yeah maybe even less time in Phoshop

[@notdisclosed7053]

Interestingly the application of intersect shows as “subtract” in the history panel, which it is not. If you have an larger area masked then choose “subtract” (perhaps a brush), the masked (affected) area is, as you would expect, the larger area except the part you have just brushed out. If, however, you choose “intersect” and use the brush, the only area masked (affected) is the area covered by both the original mask and the brushed area (which now brushes in the effect instead of brushing it out). In both cases, however, the history panel records the application of the brush as “subtract”, even though the effect of one is precisely the opposite of the other. The Adobe engineers need to update how this is recorded in the history panel to show a more accurate representation of what has been done.

[@Lightly_Salted]

Don’t worry, Adobe will fix this in a few years 😋

[@glyndewis]

I guess you 'could' think of it that...you apply the first mask then use intersect to reveal it where you want; by revealing it in some areas you are 'subtracting' in others 🤪 Maybe that's how they were thinking...who knows, but yeah the word subtract can take some figuring out as to why 😃

[@eartho]

I think the reason why is that Intersect is just an inverted subtract mask. There's nothing special going on with intersect other than the invert.

[@glyndewis]

@@eartho Disagree. Invert does just that…invert. Intersect allows you to reveal the properties of a primary mask using the properties of a secondary mask.

[@eartho]

@@glyndewis Intersect is the same as adding a subtract mask to your main mask and inverting it. The intersect button is simply a shortcut for those 2 steps. This is evident in the masking panel by Invert being selected after an intersect mask is added and why Subtract is added to the History step...

[@harrisfogel6992]

Glyn, thanks for this. I'd personally ignore the comments by some of the more snarky commentators. They should obviously have their own channels, and I'm certain they know their stuff. To degrade what you are presenting is essentially a sign of insecurity. There is a place for content like this that introduces the concept in an easily digestible way. There is always time to get granular later on. Sure, you can do everything and more in Photoshop, but the entire point behind Lightroom was a simplified, faster, less precise workflow than Photoshop. There's a reason why the initial alpha and beta builds had the option for an External Editor, just for those really persnickety tasks that required intensive knowledge and workflow. That said, keep up the good work! And for the record, I like a snappy headline!

[@glyndewis]

Cheers Harris. Yeah no problem with the 'snarky' comments ... some need replying to as they seem to not understand the meaning of'Goodbye' 😃 For some folks as you will know, the enhancements in Lightroom has seem them use PS less and less so for them it is 'Goodbye' and over time it will be for more people as even more enhancements are introduced. To say that will 'never' happen is like many people in thr 80's saying Digital Photography will never take off 🤣

[@BlurrVFX]

Woah buddy you must’ve been hurt

[@timbooth8606]

Thank you, Glyn for such a clear and concise explanation. I might even be able to use the Intersect function now!

[@glyndewis]

[@KennethStringer1985]

Wow! Thank you so much for teaching me something new. I just discovered your channel and looking forward to viewing (learning) more of your content.

[@roadtripmitch]

This was great! What night photographers desperately want in LR is simple layers to stack & overlay stars. Safe Travels!

[@glyndewis]

Fingers crossed future updates bring that 👍🏻

[@pbziegler]

You can also use the sky mask and then subtract with linear mask coming up from the middle. The real power, as you show, is on the mushroom. Isolates the adjustment within a larger mask.

[@glyndewis]

👍🏻

[@millerman2133]

why wouldn't you just use a brush with auto mask selected. genuine question

Well done ! Nicely explained , I’ve found Lightroom is moving ahead with more intuitive features for the photographer, especially with the masking features , I possibly do see Photoshop moving more to the Graphic artists side , & Lightroom to the Photographer. Would be nice to see Adobe reduce the monthly fee to half for just Lightroom, would work for me . Thanks again , not a misleading video .

[@Ajkiwi001]

I do theatre photography - single performance, dark but often high contrast lighting - and the subject selection and painting with a brush intersect is GENIUS. Nice one.

[@glyndewis]

That’s so good to hear Andrew; great that this function is useful

[@davidkelly7537]

Camera Raw has the exact same features for masking as Lightroom. You could do everything still in Photoshop. Your last example for highlights, you might get better results in Photoshop using BlendIf to target only the bright areas. Select your subject then use a curves/level/exposure layer clipped to the subject and then BlendIf.

[@glyndewis]

But if I want to stay in Lightroom OR I only use Lightroom then it can be done this way. I know how to use blend if etc … this is showing how I can get an effect I’m happy with and still stay in Lightroom

[@Killswitch1411]

@@glyndewis Why limit yourself to a program thats more limited than Photoshop? Use the best tools for the job when its needed.. But many photographers swear by Lightroom but than also use Photoshop keeping some of their viewers in the dark when they should be using both when needed.

[@manicdan481]

@@Killswitch1411 Adobe sells a Lightroom only option, so some people on a budget might not have both. My brother picked up LR and 1TB of storage for $10 a month, I have LR+PS but only a few GBs of storage. Different tool sets for different needs.

[@n0f4ke74]

@@manicdan481 C1, LR, PS, PtGui, Helicon, Affinity, TopazLabs, DxO. You're welcome. Nobody needs a subsript today. But PS is superior on masking.

[@kilobitti]

@@n0f4ke74 I usually daily carry my iPad Pro and a DSLR. For this use case scenario, I can’t see anything coming close to LR. Not only the editing tools, but the fact that my photos are backed up instantly, and my desktop downloads them automatically from the cloud. But yeah, I don’t _need_ to use LR any more than I need to take photos.

[@photonomist6345]

100% agree with what you have eloquently shown. Having become almost an expert in Photoshop and slightly looked down on "mere" Lightroom editors, I find the various combinations of masks, including subtract and add, plus the even newer feature of being able to invert a complex combination of masks, on top of the ability to select ONLY on the basis of luminance or colour into the rich mix.... it is all really tranformative. Of course a whole raft of techniques still require Photoshop such as the ever-more-common blending of images (though Lightroom can also do some of these procedures!), content-aware fill and any canvas extensions (such as in macro when you want to crop and change the angle, leaving an emtpy triangle at the edge which you then fill. Or occasionally when the subject or sky algorithms don't pass muster (usually very impressive though).... Anyway, I am using Lightroom so so much more that I am in danger of getting out of practice with advanced Photoshop techniques! Thanks for the great and timely video...

[@glyndewis]

That's so good of you to say ... thank you. Yeah agree with everything you say ... LR is coming along at such a pace and I too am finding I don't need to go into PS for takes I always had to in the past. However, the more complex stuff...yeah PS all day long...well...for now at least 😃
