Although this is a year old video upload, I'm glad I came across the tutorial. I agree, PS is daunting and with editing in LR for years now, that's my "Safe Spot". Going in and dabbling with some clean up stuff is all I typically do. But, having the focus stacking tips and the way you present it, is just so simple and doesn't seem as complex as other tutorials I've watched. I will definitely be trying some focus stacking on my Drone imagery. Although being elevated doesn't create that huge difference in foreground to background focus, but I still see the foreground as soft even when I'm at F11. I'm excited now to shoot something tonight and see what I can pull off! Great tutorials…definitely subbed! Now I'll be going through all of your videos in the foreseeable future to grasp as much knowledge as I can.
Sooo clear, thank you. Been looking for this clarity, you have two new followers, brilliant.
Hi .. for a beginner can you explain why you took three shots of the landscape, does that mean it is always better to take three shots of any landscape ? Thanks
Great demonstration and explanation. Thank you so much!
Smooth teaching techniques, really cool video Nick.
I heard about your channel from a guy from Alaska who moved to New Zealand. His tip was check out this channel, the guy is amazing. And he was right. Looking forward to a long deep dive through your videos and checking out your offerings on the web.
Hi Nick. I love your videos and learn a lot from them. I was thinking of getting out of my comfort zone, and start importing in Bridge and doing all my edits in PS only. Do you have a work flow you could recommend ?
Like many I find Ps way too intimidating. The photo stacking is great but LRC now has content aware and visualisation tab bottom left, which makes life easier especially finding dust on old photos and slides. I couldn't find visualising in Ps, dies it exist?
Hey Nick – Please consider a tutorial on photographing golf courses for us golfers/wanabee photographers who take photos while playing golf on premier courses. Thanks.
Thanks Nick! This is very helpful. I would like to start using a bit of photoshop for editing and this is a good start.
Your the Best
Thanks for this. I have struggled with photoshop & therefore sidelined it for a long time but watching this today helped me make some progress. Cheers.
Nick you are such a bag full of knowledge.. a legend and a humble pro ! Thank you 🙏🏻
Hey Nick, I use Photoshop I'd like to say thank you so much for creating this video….. I've learnt any easy way to get things done on Photoshop. Thumbs up
Great ¡¡¡ 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
Great teaching can watch you all night. Surprised that in MAY 2022 you said no camera can Focus stack .Check out the OM1 ,But thanks for the tutorial very interesting.
Thanks!
Thanks for these introduction to photoshop trainings. Great stuff.
Excellent video Nick, super helpful!
I personally don't use lightroom unless I have a long sequence of photos to edit. I directly open my images in Photoshop and edit them using the camera raw plugin. This is because my laptop is so slow and can't handle the softwares opened at the same time.
Wow! Just found your videos and they are SO helpful! I have always been intimidated by Photoshop, but you have encouraged me to go back into it again and give it another try – thank you!
Nick, any suggestions if my desktop looks different than yours, does PS offer different models? I am currently working with PS that is marketed with LR, maybe it is just a setup thing? Thanks, Ken from AZ🌵
Thanks Nick, your the Man..your right about everything you say about LR, becomes a crutch & I want to learn PS more, only used for focus stacking for yrs..I will be watching for more PS training..Love your channel, Ken in AZ 🌵
Superb video, very helpful. Thanks.
Awesome tutorial of essential tools. You nailed it, and you really made a just excellent selection of Photoshop tools that are way better than LR. Thank you very much indeed. Greetings from Switzerland
Great tip with CA
Can you focus stack and exposure blend with the same there files
👍
Thanks for this video Nick.
5 seconds before you said thats a bit boring I was like dude thats sick
Your videos are phenomenal!
Very well explained.
Dear Nick, this video and its content hits hard, especially for a person like me. Basically you somehow described me withot knowing me. I'm exactly in this situation, where the first encounters with PS are really intimidating. As many others, i use mostly LR, and after I've learned some more advance things like Range Masks, for a while I was pretty satisfied. The next natural step was to explore a bit in PS. We know that there are things that cannot be done in LR. The first thing I learned in PS was to blend the focus stacked images, and this was quite a big step for me. Then I discovered the healing tools, played a little bit with the lasso and clone stamp tools….but as you said, Nick, all those layers and layer masks are quite (or at least they look so) intimidating and I feel so lost. I really apreciate your videos, especially this one, because it is exactly my status, the way I feel right now. Mostly, I'm pretty lazy when it comes to comment, but this video really made me write a comment. I saw hundreds of videos from well know photographers like Nigel Danson, Mads Pter Iversen, Michael Schainblum, Adam Gibbs and the mighty (and funny) Gavin Hardcastle, but this one is so encouraging. And this is (especially regarding my current level and skills) exactly what I needed. Therefore, thumbs up and many thanks to you, Nick. Greetings from Romania!
fantastic Nick, so easy to follow. Thank you .
Wicked video! ❤️💯
Where did you pick up the pen and pad you use for editing?
Your videos are always so helpful! Love the way you break everything down into accessible steps for beginners.
Nick I will add my thanks for a wonderful video. I have been trying to learn PS and have a tutorial video from a well know PS teacher. But I haven't made it through yet. Recently I took a photo that I really liked while in Alaska but it had a lot of water spots on it. Your video allowed me to save an image that I didn't think was useable.
Does your PS for Landscape Photographers introduce PS in a similar way to what you did in this video…ie tools that you can use right away?
Outstanding tutorial! Your explantions are excellent!
