That was extremely clear. Excellent use of multimedia technology. THank you. You're a great teacher. One question I have that your tutorial didn't quite answer is how you brush *precisely* to the edge of the region you want to mask. Or how you can use marquee, lasso and maging wand tools to select regions to mask.
May I also ask for a tutorial on how you apply a gradient to all or part of an image please? I presume you use a gradient fill layer or a gradient map adjustment layer, but I don't know which or how.
Um, I'd mostly like to use brightness gradients, to simulate the use of graduated ND filters, to make the background sky darker while leaving the foreground unchanged.
You have a nice teaching voice. The audio sounds very compressed though. I'd be interested in tips about using the histogram to be sure prints will come out looking right in terms of exposure and contrast, especially if you're unsure if your monitor is calibrated properly.

Happy Australia Day, btw.
thanks, rodney.
ReplyDeleteselection methods are another subject, and i'll get to them.
question: what do you want to use the gradient for?
