Pro Tip: Add DEPTH and LIGHT to Wildlife Photos in Lightroom

Pro Tip: Add DEPTH and LIGHT to Wildlife Photos in Lightroom
In this Lightroom tutorial video I’m going to show you how I shape light for wildlife photography, increasing the appearance of warm side light. I’ll also show the entire Lightroom edit on this photo. Stay tuned until later in the video where I show a powerful tip for quickly converting this image to black & white.

PS>>>>> love playing with Black and White...... you have taught me a new way....

[@MarkDumbleton]

Great to hear 😊 I really love processing in black & white.

[@nitinbhide5964]

All the tutorials are very good to learn & upgrade our knowledge in Lrs

[@MarkDumbleton]

I’m happy to hear back from my viewers and know what they like. Thanks so much for the comment.

[@robertmiller435]

Thanks Mark...another valuable tutorial. I learn something new about editing with each video. Now I just need to learn to see the potential of the image and get a roadmap in my head that can guide my edits. From watching a bunch of your tutorials, it seems you have the ability to quickly figure out what you want the image to look like and then let that vision guide your edits. I'd love to see a tutorial that might help me see the roadmap before starting the edit.

[@MarkDumbleton]

Hi Robert, thanks for the comment. I’ll definitely make a video like that as requested. I’ll need to figure out how to put my thoughts into a practical strategy I can explain, but I think it will be very valuable because it’s easy to move sliders and know what they do, but knowing what you want the image editing to be like is the trick. A lot of the time I have an end result in mind, but getting to that end results is unknown, and I find myself tweaking a million things until I reach that point.

[@carolbell4550]

Mark you make it look so easy...... I have decided that I need a lot more practice..... even on my butterflies. (as I can do them sitting at home) One thing you have taught me to do is look at light.

[@MarkDumbleton]

Hehe thanks Carol. Practice makes perfect. Thanks for the continued support.

[@carolbell4550]

I finally found a shot of a cheetah with light and have used your technique and changed it to B&W. Think its ok.

[@MarkDumbleton]

Awesome, glad you managed to find a suitable image 😊

[@Mr09260]

This can be done on Photoshop too Mark??

[@MarkDumbleton]

Yes it can, use the Camera Raw Filter, works exactly the same as Lightroom.
