Photoshop video tutorials by Jesus Ramirez

[@suruha2306]

We all make mistakes. But, for you to go through these extremes to clear one up, gosh! That is what makes you a great teacher! Plus, your enthusiasm is both inspiring and infectious!

[@Starriddin]

Thank you Jesus!!! I have been a subscriber for several years. I don’t know how I missed this one, as I hate power lines ruining an otherwise perfect shot. Love your channel!!!!!

[@StLOrca]

Effing brilliant mate! Clear, easy to understand instructions and OMG it works! Thanks so much--you just saved me days of blind experimenting!

[@terrymorganphotography]

Hi PTC. Thanks for another informative tutorial. I have so many of your videos in mind when I am working in Photoshop and frequently have to rerun them to make sure I'm making best use of your advise. I was drawn to this video, not particularly due to the subject matter, but the fact that I was visiting Monteriggioni only three weeks ago and I recognised that restaurant ( we have eaten there on more than one occasion. Keep up the great work

[@Chrissy4605]

I took a spectacular Oregon Sunset photo with my iPhone X. There were plenty of power lines and a power pole in the way. I am not done with it yet, but you deserve a great thank you!!!

[@JWentu]

Wow, thank you, I needed a quick solution to adjust my photo and I found this video. Great!

[@RemoFiore]

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

[@CraigRodmellMusic]

I'm frequently removing power lines from pictures. This tutorial has added another technique to my arsenal. Thanks!

[@stenzelimoveis]

Very good technique, I'm very grateful that you taught me, I used the stamp tool and it's very hard work, I take pictures of real estate and always eliminate the electric cables. Thank you!

Its just awesome... Nice tutorial

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you!

[@loriendavy3248]

Thank you for that most helpful and informative tutorial, Jesús. Regarding the image that you used to demonstrate your technique: Why does it have halos around all the edges? Appreciatively, Lórien

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

+Lórien Davy It was an image whose sky was pretty much white, and in camera RAW I brought it back but the side effect was that halo. It didn't matter since I wanted it only for the tutorial.

[@VikashSingh-lz6mm]

Great video!!!!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

+Kyung Ho Bruletti Thank You!

[@hmfauzy]

Very good tip. Well explained for noobs like me. Just a quick question: is it possible to do the same thing for a bigger fatter wires?

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Yeah. But it becomes more difficult if the wires are really fat. The content aware may not look as seamless in areas with detail in the background.

[@LIZANO262]

Gracias . Saludos .

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

+Javier Lukarelly De nada! Saludos!

[@designRpt]

ahah i knew it im not the only one, i usually do this and my friends say im crazy that there is no need to "delete" the powelines and stuff :P but i like a more clean look of what im trying to show in a picture!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

+designRpt It all depends on what you're going for

[@stenzelimoveis]

I go through the same problem, my colleagues say that I'm wasting time and that it's bullshit to exclude electric cables, but the image is much more beautiful and clean.

[@richardmardex3014]

No, it's your friends who are crazy.

[@aneesharis4661]

great tips sir

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

+anees naseem Thank you!

[@mahziarjafarizadeh]

Good job 👍

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

+Mahziar Shakiba Thank you!

[@pthomas36]

Awesome. The pen tool bit was one of those aah-haa moments. Thanks for the video.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

+Tom Martinson You're welcome!

[@johnrasmussen3752]

same here mate

[@mrxy94]

I can´t reduce and increase my brush size as you tell every time. Is there something you have to tick to make this possible? Great video by the way

[@ScotchMacaskill]

+Mr XY Not sure if this answers your question, but sometimes to get the square brackets to change brush size, I first have to hit the Escape key, then I can change brush size with square bracket keys.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

+Mr XY Try pressing Escape key as +Scotch Macaskill mentioned but usually you don't have to. As soon as you select the tool you should be able to use the bracket keys [ or ] to increase or decrease the size of the brush

[@mrxy94]

+Photoshop Training Channel My problem is that i need the "alt gr" key to get those brackets. if i do so nothing happens. Is this a problem because i work on a laptop?

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

+Mr XY It might be your specific laptop. I personally haven't seen that in the laptops I've used.

[@rajendrashakya5916]

Can you recommned me the most user friendly photoshop version.

[@jasselraicamotas9758]

What application did you used?

[@gregs3173]

Rad!

[@josephlim6247]

Nice

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

+Joseph Fernando Thank you!

[@ttt35040]

cool!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

+ttt35040 Thank you!

[@ttt35040]

+Photoshop Training Channel Keep up the good work...I learn something new every time!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

+ttt35040 I'm glad you do!

[@poncedelamar1445]

Everything worked for me up until CMD + H on MAC.. First it hide the window.. Then I figured out it's Shift + CMD + H .. but then it looked like the path diminished slightly but wouldn't erase the power line, tried increasing size of the spot healing brush and even diminished it.. but nothing. Any idea why? I did everything in beginning, from sample layers and rubber band and new layer and all. Thanks for vid to begin with.

[@bnajoy8435]

Hey, how do you take a straight line off of a face without it messing up the face? Thank you.

[@myuniversitylife6658]

What photoshop is this ?? I don’t have it downloaded on my laptop

[@ncraspa]

Jesus, you are the best. TY

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

+Nick Raspa Thank you!

[@italiansnake]

Monteriggioni!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

+italiansnake Yes!

[@paulfrancis8836]

You've cut the power to the building. Why ?

[@AtheistEve]

I'd like a spot healing brush for my eyes. There's loads of stuff irl that I'd rather not see.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

+JE Hoyes LOL. Yeah, same here!

[@Raistlin306]

I'm not sure what went wrong, all the lines are gone, but now when I do a vibrance adjustment there are white trails where lines were?

[@JillClardy]

Just came to watch this very useful tutorial again and it's preceded by a very repulsive NRA ad... Ugh! Is there anyway you can specify which ads you DON'T want to see on your channel?

[@joannekosmo5606]

The stroke option for my path was disabled (grayed out). What am I missing?

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Are you on a pixel layer?

[@leonlefebvre6705]

My power lines are still shown very lightly. Ive tried increasing the hardness but it doesnt help? Any ideas?

[@user-dt9gv2lb6u]

这是一个神奇的方法

[@kalef1234]

very aggressive ending wow haha

[@shashirebel3470]

can u give me that image link

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

It's on my website

[@SanFranciscoDiscovery]

What about when you have power lines against a deep sunrise?

[@PicyPoe]

great tutorial though if removing power-lines we shall remove and sewer pipes lol

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

+PicyPoe lol

[@gls9902]

Well, that did not work. No matter which method I used there was still a "vapor trail" left where the cable was in the best case. The worst case was a total botch job with the other four parallel cables. For those four when I attempted to remove one it was replaced by another in a really ugly way. I tried hand painting using my Wacom tablet and the clone stamp tool, your pen technique, healing brush tool all to no avail. I even tried to cut and paste adjacent areas near the cables, but the solid greys of the sky were subtly unmatchable and made matters worse. So I'm just going to have to go back to the site, climb the power pole where the cables are attached, cut all five cables and re-shoot the image.

[@richardmardex3014]

Thank you for this video. The information you present is good and valuable. But at least for me, I feel your presentation style is to fast and jumpy. It would help me if you were slower and more careful in talking about the tools you are using and the steps you are taking. After all, if we were familiar with all of this we probably wouldn't be watching.

[@shyamvijay8985]

A bit more slowly and carefully please

[@Albanez39]

You basically cover the lines with a blurry mess. Ok, I guess there's no way to do this well :(

[@Nasimulislam.official]

Thanks.
