    Great attention to detail in this tutorial. That for some people could have been a very complex edit but you simplified that down. Nice work.

    Excellent! I have been working on an image that needed this type of blur effect as I was not getting the results I expected with the other filters. Didn't know about the path blur filter and it is just what I needed. Thanks, Greg - great timing!

    I'd not tried path yet because I wasn't sure how to use it. Thanks for the info. Very clear and just the right pace.

    Love the tutorial.. My issue right now is my path points dont show up, even after I added and checked everything. Cannot select the points. Any ideas ?

    very informative Greg, just one thing am I missing something in that you cloned the yellow triangle shape out at the front left in a separate object but in the final one it's back in - is there a reason for that I didn't get?

    • @gregbenzphotography

      Which time points in the video?

    • @darcybrown7369
      @darcybrown7369 6 років тому

      Hi Greg, you start to remove it about 16 minutes in but at 17:24 you are showing the finished image and it's back again - an oversight or a decision to leave it or did I get it wrong and you never intended to remove it - sorry I didn't get that bit

      The first view is inside the Smart Object where I’ve cleaned up. The last view is outside the Smart Object where the layer mask is only revealing that content in certain areas. So it isn’t “back”, it’s just not content that I used. I went beyond the edges of what I needed inside the Smart Object to ensure good edges for what I used. Otherwise would have made a funny streak at the edge of that triangle feature.

      ah ok - thanks for taking the time to clear that up Greg

    Thanks for the great tutorial!
    I apologize in advance for being picky, but I feel like it will be even greater if the parts of glass panels that support the handrail can be more realistic. Since the stairs are moving but not the ground, so path-blur the whole glass panel doesn't look right. If I want to separate the blurring on the glass panels, what's your suggested process? Maybe make the mask grey on the glass panel part, or clone the actual stairs, path-blur it then overlay them on the glass panel and adjust the blending/opacity?

    • @gregbenzphotography
      @gregbenzphotography  4 роки тому +1

      I can’t think of a good way to separate a reflection from the content that shows through the same clear surface. The same pixel is a blend of two sources of light.

    • @AllenYauAnimation

      @@gregbenzphotography The only way I can think of is quite complex (and maybe overkilling)--basically is to reconstruct the whole glass panel part. First clone the ground/wall areas near but outside of the panels, to the paneled area. Then clone the stairs and put on top of the paneled area/ground-wall layer, adjust its opacity to make it looks like reflections. Finally, apply the same Path Blur from your tutorial to only the stair reflection. I think this method effectively separates the ground/wall and the stairs. Any thoughts?
