Great tips! One of my tricks is to place the image on an empty fullscreen canvas and zoom it in and out to see it in various sizes against a white background. Staring at a blank white screen for a minute is also a good way to "reset" the eyes.
00:12 I get this way when editing video. It's so good to step away for a little bit, which is hard when you have tight deadlines. I've found that collaborating with others has helped tremendously.
kudos! i completely forgot about trick 7. a teacher at uni once showed it but forgot about it. great last minute sanity-reality check. I haven't done upside down but have instead mirrored the image sometimes to check for composition balance etc.
I shoot mainly portraiture so while something like turning it upside down won't help all that much, the last tip with the curves is something I never knew existed and will be a huge help for my work! Much appreciated! Also echo the whole 'looking at it on other devices' tip - that's a must before you put anything online. Checking something on a Mac to iPhone doesn't alter much, but I keep my old android around just to use it to see what it would roughly look like on a completely different company's device.
Excellent collection of suggestions. Two I had never thought of, and have great potential: viewing on different devices and previewing using presets. I have tended to ignore presets, but what a great way to see the potential of different treatments.
A trick I use which works great for me is having a small library of pictures i love (in terms of exposure and color) and that i know very well, I have looked at them in several lighting situations, i know i liked them when i first saw them and i still like them. That way if i have an image of say a sunset, i have a reference of how much saturation i found to be aesthetically pleasing and natural. Specially for editing video in davinci i use those images to base my scopes off of.
Hoorah for the liberation of the 1;1 ( or should I say 6x6 ) aspect ratio. Also discovered your B&W tip recently using the same logic. Nice to have it validated. I'm getting there slowly...
Great techniques shared, please do keep these kinds of videos coming, thanks.

I love all of the the tips you've mentioned here. Especially tip #7. Thanks for making such a well rounded video. Really enjoying your content.
Thanks for yet another great video. Your presentation and subjects are great. And the video itself is of great quality as well. 👍
Several good hacks/tips
love your photo editing tips. thank you!
excellent, especially the last one with auto + option + curves. I knew that one but totally forget about it. Thanks for reminder.

This is amazing thanks Todd
Really great suggestions from the different perspectives.

I had no idea about tip#7! Great idea Todd, look forward to experimenting.
Thanks for the good information!
The method that saves my creativity is to not look at the photos for a period of time and then go back and edit them.
I’d love to see you edit one of your landscape shots live 🤙

The best tip in this video: view your images differently!
what about making a print ?
