How To ISOLATE & ADJUST a Sky in PHOTOSHOP

[@AnthonyMorganti]

In this tutorial, I demonstrate how to isolate and edit the sky section of a scene leaving the rest of the image unedited.

I wish I had watched this yesterday it would have saved me a lot of frustration.

[@desertgecko4549]

As I prefer and am better skilled in Lightroom, for years I've made a duplicate then processed one image for the sky and one for everything else. I use a combination of global and local filters, processing each image with complete disregard for how the processing affects the rest of the image. After finishing the two, I open them as Photoshop layers and blend them. I admit I don't do this often anymore, not since Lightroom's addition of masks, but it is a good technique, a simple technique, that offers good results. But now I have another way to adjust the sky, and as my Photoshop skills are improving, I'll give this a try. Thanks, Anthony, for another useful video. And nice job on recovering the statue sky.

[@cool4fam99]

excellent again anthony. thanks

[@janosjulianes3006]

Thanks 🤗

[@mikephillips96]

hey Anthony....how about using the camera raw filter for adjustments?

[@HoustonBrownPhotography]

Did not know that. Awesome!!!

[@conanhutchison]

Thank you!!!

[@rMr.big13]

Awesomeness!! Ty

[@rogermullins7877]

Another good video Anthony. I have a dilemma, hoping you can offer suggestions or even do a video on it. I recently shot an Air Show (UK). When Shooting old propeller driven aircraft, as you probably know, they need a slow shutter speed so the prop is blurred. The sky was mostly grey, which I would like to change. The problem is how do I select aircraft AND blurred prop, so when new sky is imported it shows through the prop blur??? Thanks in anticipation.

[@kevinhawkins82]

I have a hard one! I need to replace a sky in a photo of Old Faithful! I just need to replace the sky in Photoshop, but NOT replace the white steam cloud of the geyser. How do I do that?

[@ralphwatson7036]

Another good video. I've also been using Select Sky to delete the sky and reveal the exposed-for-the-sky sky underneath. Is this ok or is it better to blend my two exposures?

[@edmonton1338]

If I wanted to leave the sky but adjust everything else, could you invert the sky selection and do the same layer process thereafter……

[@bazwillrun]

why dont you try it and see ?
