Glad to see these types of videos make it back onto your channel, as a beginner photographer these videos help me progress so much more! I also have been really enjoying the podcasts, keep up the excellent content!

[@Erwin.v.Boxtel]

Thanks again Pay Kay for your amazing in depth video! When you make adjustments within the HSL slider hold down your option key on Mac or the Alt key for Windows to exactly see where in the image these colors are and how they react while moving the slider from left to right.

[@Liam-zg8ni]

Love these tutorials/guides and over all your review/ranking videos as well. Would love to see an updated version of your focal lenght rank video as well :)

[@patkay]

Perhaps one day I'll do it!

[@wingsleveladventures]

Lets go Pat Kay posted!!! Any chance you could do a video on filters ex. mist/nd filters for street photography? I cant really find any good videos that explain it to a noob like me

[@patkay]

What would you like to know specifically?

[@LouisLuzuka]

ive tried 1/8 1/4 and 1/2 and full 1 strength, and out of all of them, intention is the key. I love the 1/2 but the auto focus tends to hunt, 1/8 is a bit low so 1/4 for me seems like a happy medium, but if you are using it with intention, maybe at night when you want to bloom the lights, or during the day, blooming the highlights and softening the sky, its totally upto you I'd say buy a cheap one, experiment and work on your techniques, but I feel like its good, but not everything needs a dreamy look unless that's your style, its easy to overdo it what do you shoot anyways? and for video, I believe that you'd want 1/8 or 1/4 to be subtle and get the digital edge off or if you want dreamy then go 1/2 or even a full stop and its pretty dreamy hope it helps!

[@sayakdas7982]

Really appreciate the insights ✌🏼

[@peterhamilton8913]

Hi Pat, Excellent tutorial video. I really connect with your approach and style. I had better have a look at you Masterclass ! :) Cheers, Pete

[@richardjames7360]

What a great video! I learnt a lot, lol

[@samtoii]

Thanks Pat! Aways learn something new

[@AndrewKoay]

Yay, your tutorial video is back again!

[@patkay]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@sithijatishan]

Loved This video pat. I would love to see you're editing a portrait Picture. I Find little bit difficult sometimes to edit Portrait compared to a landscape picture. Love to know your thoughts and hopefully a breakdown as well!

[@patkay]

Perhaps one day! I do have a lot of those examples in my course though.

[@Hakeo]

So glad I can drive to work to this video! Thank you.

[@patkay]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@shapke]

Great video - thank you very much. I really appreciate your structured approach and how you explain the reasons for everything you do. I learnt a lot!

[@patkay]

Glad you did! Thanks for watching.

[@arkei96]

Hi Pat. Thanks for the tutorial. Looking forward for more.

[@patkay]

Thanks for watching!

[@AkosAkos-io3vw]

Omg just what i needed

[@patkay]

Hopefully it helps!

[@LouisLuzuka]

this is helpful for me, for someone who avoids editing like the plague, but then I remember watching your video essay saying I should take 28 pictures a day to hit 10,000 pictures in a year. and a picture isn't complete until the edit is applied, I might just suck it up and learn this thing, I know its good for me, why do you think I put it off for so long, maybe because I convince myself I like the pictures and the colours in camera better? or a preset is cheating in my mind, or is there a way to overcome this deliberate trend of mine to just avoid editing at all costs, maybe I should just learn to shoot film haha but editing is like my krptonite, so I dont know, maybe if I do this it would encourage me to be happy, thank you for inspiring me to be happy :)

[@patkay]

I think it helps to perhaps push through and see how much editing can transform your images. Once you start to get a good feel for how to do it, you'll find that process addicting and you'll continue to do it!

[@LouisLuzuka]

@@patkay okay I will give it a chance and update you with how its going, thank you again so grateful!

[@Mrus-jo1rh]

Really nice video

[@KellySedinger]

The section on brushes kind of blew my mind, because I'm pretty sure I've been using brushes backwards! I'd brush an area and THEN alter it, whereas you decide what the brush is going to do and then apply that using the brush, which...makes WAY more sense and explains some of my recent LR frustrations. (I've only been using LR for a few months now.) Thanks for the tutorial, and best wishes! :)

[@wespullen]

This is so good! Thank you!

[@patkay]

My pleasure! Thanks so much for watching

[@dawei566]

Hi Pat, Love your step-by-step instructions on LR. I think I got to learn this more than 10 times in your tutorial because never use it before...😅. Glad to hear from you 🙏 ❤

[@patkay]

Glad you got value out of it!

[@lal_fotografo]

Finally!

[@patkay]

!!!

[@npage1028]

Dope video. But also picture looked dope out of camera lol

[@patkay]

I agree. Like I always say, a photo is 80% how you take it, and the rest is the visual aesthetic on top.

[@menlo7256]

YOO FINALLY SOMETHING WE (ACTUALLY) NEED 🔥

[@patkay]

Haha

[@bulugrambis]

2:00 intensions

[@Fthan]

yay

[@patkay]

Woo!

[@michaelg758]

What time did you take this photo at?

[@patkay]

Sunrise.

[@watching-youtube-now]

1. buy $4500 worth of gear that would pick up so much detail you could spot an ant on mt fuji 2. go -50 on clarity 3. ???? 4. PROFIT

[@Pitagyros24]

hahahahaha fair point

[@patkay]

Clearly you didn't watch the video then.

[@watching-youtube-now]

@@patkay I'm just poking fun. Just the contrast between the photographers always chasing the sharpest solutions and then decide to drop it in post has always amused me
