TK FRIDAY (Flower Photography and TK9) FULL EDIT

[@DavidRamsey1]

As usual Dave, really well done. Your devotion to detail and ability to explain all the options in the TK panel is fantastic. Really appreciate you.

Many thanks Dave and Happy Editing!

[@Ciomi50]

Amazing. Thank you Dave. 👏👏👏

[@susannelson4833]

I always learn something from you. One thing I enjoy about your editing, you have a 'soft' touch, not overdoing your edits. It takes me a while to actually see the changes, which I like, subtle, not 'in your face'. Great editng

[@DwightsPhotoandArt]

Good stuff Dave. Thank you!

[@shupingyin8082]

Great video. ❤

Thanks Dave ~ I really appreciate it when you tell us the thought process behind the edits as your reasoning is insightful. Multiple subtle edits make such a big difference, so glad you drive that point home. I love TK Friday’s, I just hate when they end! But there is an entire library of them that keeps me busy.

I am not that interested in flower photography, but found that the techniques that you used to improve this image can be applied to any image with similar corrections/editing. As always, I learned how to better utilize the TK9 panel in editing my work. I enjoy the channel and look forward to the TK Friday challenge presented each week.

Nice to see your summer flora in the northern hemisphere.

Just what I need at the end of a day running a tabletop photography workshop for friends, a cool glass of beer, and some TK Friday. 😀

Another great Friday. Have a nice weekend!!

Another excellent image adjustment - Bravo! To improve the composition, I would have tried 2 different things: 1) reduce the space between the flowers to make them feel more united as a pair and balance space outside the flowers. 2) more difficult; reverse position of the two flowers so they "face" each other instead of both "looking" away from the center which makes them feel like to people looking away from each other. Probably a personal touch more than a needed change.

Great example of using color masks. Thank you!

[@alankefauver6187]

How about some wildlife shots on TK Friday. Lions and Tigers and Bears, Oh my...

[@keithsimpson8676]

Dave, you said that the first colour grade made the background too saturated. I wonder whether you could have tried: 1. using a luminosity blend mode; 2. a depth map which might have protected the background? I don't know, it's just a thought, not a criticism. Your videos are always very useful.

[@thejoyofeditingwithdavekelly]

You are right Keith. The Luminosity blend mode would have helped, so many options to consider.

[@steve2085]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge, Dave.

[@guitarman70]

Another great edit Dave. Thank you. One thing...have you considered turning off the brush animation (the green and red circles) that appear when you use the brush tool (example at 21'13") as it would allow us to see the adjustment more clearer as you're doing it?
