[@ThePhlogPhotography]

Thank you so much for all your support Nancy!

[@ChrrZ]

another fantastic tutorial, cant wait to try out this technique too for the first time!

[@District-65]

Well done !

[@JohnDoranski]

Thank you for sharing. I am fairly new to PS, but I believe I followed along enough to replicate your process. Now I just need to find a subject to practice with. Thanks for sharing and while long, you provided a lot and did not leave anything out - so well worth the few extra minutes. Please continue this series a few more times.

Toma y revelado, ambos son muy divertidos. Gracias por enseñarme cómo hacerlo.

Great video tutorial Christian thanks. I personally use Affinity Photo for editing my Raw shots but I can transition those steps in there. Tim Cornwall UK

Another excellent tutorial with some great techniques.

[@darrenbryan001]

Your knowledge of Photoshop is on a level I can only dream of. I now know what I don’t know!

[@ThePhlogPhotography]

Thank you so much! :-)

[@yahmoht6470]

Very cool tutorial. You need to clean your sensor though, it has many dust spots!

[@ThePhlogPhotography]

Thank you! I do have to clean it indeed, luckily there is an upcoming Iceland trip so I really HAVE to do it soon haha

this is so inspiring thanks.

Nice work 💪

[@i.m.5621]

Thanks for the great and detailed video! However, I find the cool tone of the lighting on the meadow in front of the chapel a bit distracting. It primarily stems from the layers of light painting done with a cool LED headlight and the subsequent WB adjustments starting around 12:15 in the video. If I had the skills to manage all of that :-) I might opt for a slightly warmer and perhaps more saturated look. But it's a matter of opinion; as it is, it can evoke the feel of moonlight. :-)

[@ThePhlogPhotography]

Hey, thanks for your feedback! I agree the light is rather cold, I think its fitting for the seen. But if you want to make it warmer you could use the light painting raw files and increase white balance temperature on them which gives you warmer light in the end :-)

[@chrispenney5795]

Great video!

[@madmomentum23]

Super informative. I have to ask, why were you underprepared for the cold? It looks like you have gloves, boots, beanie and an insulated jacket with a hood.

[@stigfloberghagenphotography]

Superb video 👌

[@joelwexler]

Thanks, this was great. I'm in Colorado. I guess our humidity's always low - I've never iced up like that. Come to Colorado. My Sony A7Rii used to change things. Maddening! My Nikon's don't ever do this.

[@ThePhlogPhotography]

I've been to Colorado many years ago, visited Maroon Bells (?) near Aspen, it was such a beautiful landscape, but we have been super scared running into bears haha. I hope to visit Colorado again in the future sometime

[@joelwexler]

@@ThePhlogPhotography Our bears are nice. It's the grizzlies up north who would freeze my blood on sight if I was unprotected. I've got one great shot from 5m - a youngster who came to us. It's the moose you have to worry about around here.

Tolles Video Christian 💪 ich wünschte ich hätte nur 1% von deinen skills

Vielen lieben Dank für den netten Kommentar!

Grandios!

Hey, can you do tutorial on Enrico Fossati's editing style? Cheers.

[@ThePhlogPhotography]

Hey, thanks for the suggestion! Enricos editing style is awesome, I will see if I cant get close to it and make a video :-)

[@hanomanob]

Hi, thank you for the video. I see a problem with the light, where does it come from, it couldn't be far away because the shadow over the door in the second example is so harsh.

[@kaneda8625]

what is the best software to merge raws and do the hdr in your opinion? (to do the stacking i mean)

[@ThePhlogPhotography]

To create images like this one Photoshop is the best by far. If you want to create basic HDR photos, there are many great tool out there! I prefer Lightroom, however :-)

[@kaneda8625]

@@ThePhlogPhotography do you think the result is the same? or there are important differences?

[@carlbaer304]

Your photoshop skills far exceed my own, but I am wondering why you don't use File-Scripts-Load Files into Stack to place all open files into the layers instead of the copy paste process.

[@ThePhlogPhotography]

Thank you so much! I guess I'm just too used to the copy paste method, I need to force myself to try the script-way next time :D

I have had exactly the same 'switched to jpg' on my Canon R5, on the night of a huge aurora in the UK. I started the night shooting raw, and when I got home I found a lot of the later shots were jpg. The only thing I could think was I switched to video during the evening, to take some aurora video, then back to stills mode. The camera appears to have then gone to jpg. However, trying to recreate this scenario again at home, it stayed in RAW after shooting video. I asked the question on a Canon R5 Facebook group, and the concensus there was I was an idiot, and it was user error - so I left the group 😂 I'm still no further forwards in knowing why it switched to jpg.

[@ADR1ANBUTT0N]

That’s the problem with Facebook groups it’s always the users error, even if it was a genuine I hit the wrong button by mistake, everyone learns, but there was no need to be called an idiot etc. did you google it by any chance?

[@combatwombat71]

@@ADR1ANBUTT0N I have had a Google search, and I have found the odd post here and there about cameras defaulting back to jpg, but no conclusive reason why. I now make it part of my shooting workflow to check I am in RAW, or at least CRAW on my Canon R5.

[@ThePhlogPhotography]

Oh god I've read the same response regarding the problem in different sony groups haha. It is certainly not a user error! :-( I have the samee feeling it has to do something with the video settings because it always happens in combination with it in my case. I also tried recreating it, but s ofar no success :/

[@noahthieben]

Hey Christian, ich hätte 2 mögliche Szenarien die für die Umstellung von RAW auf JPG verantwortlich sein könnten: ist ggf. einer der Knöpfe der Kamera oder des Objektivs mit der Funktion JPG/RAW in den Benutzereinstellungen belegt, manchmal kommt man ja versehentlich an einer der Knöpfe..? 2. Mögliche Ursache: ich hatte an meiner a7III das Problem, wenn ich den MC11 Adapter verwendet habe hat sich der AF auf Tiererkennung gestellt, wenn ich das Objektiv berührt habe.. das hatte ich bei dem Sony eigenen Adapter LaEa3 nicht.. und ist auch sonst nie passiert, nur mit dem MC11..

[@ThePhlogPhotography]

Hey, danke dir viel mals für die Hilfe! Möglichkeit 1 kann ich schon mal ausschließen, die Funktion ist nicht belegt. Ich verwende tatsächlich den MC11 Adapter, der AF hat sich allerdings noch nie umgestellt dadurch. Ich habe die Vermutung das dieser bug irgendetwas mit der Videoaufnahme zu tun hat (ist immer im zusammenhang mit Video passiert)

[@margaretannhalleck1326]

My Sony camera has also randomly switched from raw to jpeg. Don’t recall if it was the a7iv, the a7 r5 or both. Don’t know why. If you figure it out, please share with your followers.

[@ThePhlogPhotography]

Someone pointed out it might have something to do with the MC11 adapter, do you use it by any chance? Did it happen after you recorder video? Because I think in my case it has something to do with video at least :/

[@margaretannhalleck1326]

@@ThePhlogPhotography ….i guess that’s a possibility, but i never use these cameras for video. Maybe I inadvertently pressed the record button. Thanks for the suggestion

[@gin21zkato]

Ps im out, have a nice day and pain night xD

[@youphototube]

I have a solution for the Sony camera switching to jpeg.....use Nikon!

[@ThePhlogPhotography]

Haha, I looove my Sony camera, cant imagen switching to Nikon right now :D
