☝️Range Masks in Lightroom Video Series
In this week’s episode, we discuss the single best tool to improve your landscape photos. The usual editing workflow for my landscape photos always starts out in Lightroom and generally has to be finished within Photoshop for the sheer fact that you cannot create a highly targeted local adjustment within Lightroom. Before range masks, the only way to create a refined local adjustment was to manually apply the edit with an adjustment brush, which wasn't an all too "refined" approach. With the addition of range masks, my need to always finish an edit in Photoshop has drastically been reduced as I can now create highly refined local adjustments for my landscape photos without ever having to leave Lightroom.
In this video, I review the differences between global and local adjustments, why one is better than the other and how I use Range Masks to enhance details and bring out stunning colors in my landscape photos. Lightroom offers multiple range mask options to choose from, but I generally use the luminance and color range masks for my landscape images. There will always be something that Photoshop can do that Lightroom cannot, but as these programs evolve the power of both makes the need to jump from one to the other less and less. In my opinion, the addition of range masks has been the single best thing that has ever happened to Lightroom and is a tool that I use on just about every single one of my landscape photos.
