I am only at 7 min 45sec and mad to stop and say this is exactly what I needed. Thank you for your help. Now back to your lesson.
Haha, thanks a lot mate 🙏🏻💪🏼
Luv luv luv 🙏
Great tips, but I'm just blown away by those oil paintings!
haha, me too! Thanks mate!
informative video.
Cheers mate
Thanks everyone! Here's the SALE link to my post-processing masterclass www.williampatinophotography.com/landscape-photography-retouching?affiliate=organictrafficmkbs
Another great video
Your videos on editing just keep getting better and better! It is so helpful to understand concepts up front before diving into the sliders. Thanks.
Thanks a lot !
Best well explained editing video I have come across. Nicely done.
Thanks a lot Brett 🙏🏻👊🏻
outstanding video, nicely done. this helped so much
Will, your videos are the best I've seen with post processing. What I have problems with is the decision making... deciding exactly where I need to increase or decrease contrast, dehaze, bring the color up or down, etc. At this point in my progress, I definitely tend overdo it. Your videos are really really helpful. Thank you!
That means a lot, thank you. Just recorded a new one which will come out soon :)
You give me hope. Thank you! ❤
There’s always hope. Thanks! 🙏🏻❤️
Very nice
Great choice of photo to edit. Using those fantastic paintings to illustrate makes a huge difference when you see someone can actually produce such amazing works of art. All the hard work you put into this channel and your courses is very much appreciated Will. Pointing out that some of the sky is also closer is a good reminder I think. The speedy bit at the end made me laugh :-)
Thank you as always Caroline 🙏🏻 Yeah realistically I can’t do a full process on an image in one sitting, which is annoying when it comes to doing these quick UA-cam lessons, haha. So at least the speedy part at the end shows some of the extra little adjustments which still happen after the initial pass over.
It is so simple how You explain 🙂 from the time I was started watch you video my edits is going into right way. Looking in my past photo edits and new one I see results by use brush tool 🙂 Thank You so much!!! 😉
My pleasure, thank you ☺️🙏🏻💚
Thanks for this video Will. Really useful teaching of atmospheric perspective and editing techniques. ✌️
My pleasure, thank you mate.
This has finally made me understood how and why professional landscape photographers' material looks the way it does! I think I'm reasonably skilled in portrait editing and macro photography, but thank you a bunch for adding to my competence in editing landscapes too!
My pleasure mate, thank you 🙏🏻💪🏼
Thanks, again very helpful
Thanks Dave 🙏🏻
Thanks for the great advice
Thanks!
Many thanks William for these explanations, this is very useful for me
You are very welcome
I’ve been doing all that editing in photoshop because I didn’t realize you could work so selectively with a brush in Light Room! I thought you were basically confined to global adjustments unless you were willing to do huge amounts of complex masking, which just feels like an alien process to me. Even the way I use Pshop is very clunky, so I’m really excited to think that maybe shooting raw and using Light Room holds some promise for me after all. Thank you!
One of the things I might have done with the details on the side of the mountain, rather than lightening the details, is to increase the saturation of the things like the shrubbery. In Pshop, that actually lightens things a bit as well. Is that something you ever do? I find that saturating the shadows can lend a subtle richness to the surface too - but that may be because I print my photos on dead matte papers.
This was a terrific video. You made a very complicated process seem simple enough to try!
Love it¡¡
William, you're a breath of fresh air. Just subscribed a couple of weeks ago and glad i did. Trend (prob from social media) seems to be whack up the dehaze and clarity front to back. I've gone with negative contrast and negative texture as my base for landscapes and then only bring back the texture/contrast by the same amount in the foreground areas so as not to over sharpen and keep the landscape looking soft.
Mate, fantastic video. What’s funny is that I posted a photo from this exact location to my ol insta feed today haha
Tag me on it so I can see :)
Your editing technique is a breath of fresh air. I love it. And your results speak for themselves...beautiful portfolio.
Wow, thank you!
Thanks. Excellent vid 😊
Thanks so much !
Thank you!!! It makes more sense now. The way you talk makes your video's very relax to watch. Not to much information at once, makes it watchable for me.
So glad to hear that, thank you!
What? No AI masking? 😉 I had forgotten how satisfying it is to build up those adjustments using brushes. Thank you for reminding me to get back to what is really effective for editing. Might have to take some of your courses.
Growing appreciation for these subtle, yet powerful distinctions in editing that you have presented. As others have said, the illustration using that beautiful oil painting really helps to convey the point you are making. Truly an excellent video on the concept you wanted to highlight - job well done.
Thank you for the thoughtful comment 😊🙏🏻
Been photoshopping a long time. Always looking for knowledgeable folks to learn from. Get tired of most of them. Think I found one!!! Your presentation is game changing for me! Well done… thank you!
Awesome, thanks mate!
The master at work 🤩
I have been watching your videos for a while and have to say that they are the most practical from technique of photographing as well as editing I have ever seen. Another chapter is your on field exploring - great work William ! :)
That means a lot mate, thank you! 🙏🏻👊🏻
Thank you William for the thorough explanations. You provide a very simple and logical approach to global and local adjustments that anyone can understand. Will make a tremendous improvement to my images. Thank you again!
Thanks for the support and thoughtful comment mate :)
Your the man mate , love your work 👍
haha thanks mate!
Another great video, the thought process and what to look at is so helpful. Much appreciated your time for making these 💫💯🥂
My pleasure, thank you for the support and comment :)
Always so helpful! Could watch your edits for hours! Your tutorials have helped more than any I’ve watched!
Happy to help! Thanks Mel :)
Thank you so much for sharing some of your techniques. This is very helpful.
You are so welcome!
Another informative and interesting lesson........thank you.
My pleasure! Thanks 👊🏻
Love it Will. Like i said before that it unlocked something I am glad you've expanded on it. Solidifies what's in my head.
Also your mates paintings are absolutely amazing and looks like a photo. Incredible skills with the brush.
Cheers brother!
The way the highlights brush made the image pop was awesome, especially bringing out the gold glow on that little patch of water and the grass on the distant cliff. I was amazed at what the camera had actually captured in the sky. I am far more careful now about deleting raw images since watching your channel (disappointment made me reckless). Thanks, William.
Thanks Joan, I'm glad I could shed some light on what's captured vs what is seen in the RAW/camera. The more you shoot and process these large dynamic range scenes, the easier it gets and more confident you will be out in the field :)
I like this approach and observation of the tonal range to create more depth. Another excellent video!
Thanks again Tim!
Great video, mate. Really like your editing approach and again, your tutorials are terrific 🙌🏻
Thanks a ton!
Many thanks William, your teaching style has always been really beneficial as with the use of the brush, very much appreciated. Now to go back and check out the ones I did not edit.
As always, thank you mate 🙏🏻
Great video and awesome information! Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for perhaps the best 16+ minutes on RAW editing I've seen. You explained the goals so clearly and simply, and the demonstrations easy to follow. I will surely check out your other tutorials on this topic. I knew/know of the masking tools in LR, but using them in the way you described was quite enlightening. It helped too, that I have a similar image and as you spoke I cold immediately relate your words to my image.
So glad to hear that mate, thank you for the kind words 🙏🏻
Really great video 👍🙂
Thanks!

I bought some of your courses and i really like them. You are a good teacher. I wonder if you have any courses or video about timelapsing? I really want too learn it. Thanks from Norway
Thanks so much! No, nothing on Timelapse sorry. My next course to be released soon is on composition 🙏🏻
Hi Will. I'd love to take your course. But i was wondering. Who is it for? Just wild life/nature or street photography as well. I like to bit of both.
👍👍👍✌🏻
Cheers Fi ☺️🐶
Bro, thanks for the effort. Great vid as always. I really struggle with getting the right exposure in my images to display them right on social media, website and print. Any tips on how to set brightnes on your monitor and background color in lightroom when editing? Setting the bg color in lightroom on white seems to help, but it hurts the eyes.
Thanks a lot mate. I like the monitor about 80%. For print, I have a video on that so check it out but essentially you need to really lift the shadows and blacks to compensate for the paper. For socials and screens in general just reference the histogram and make sure your images have some bright tones toward the right of the histogram. If you don’t, it means you’re lacking and ‘brights’ or brightness in general. Technically that’s fine but it means the images will look flat on screens.
Thanks bro, that's really helpful and I will try it. Your channel is a real treasure! Keep up the good work, your content is unique and a real blessing for so many photographers.@@WilliamPatinoPhotography
Are you using Lightroom or photoshop here? Which do you find to be better overall?
This is Photoshop. I don't use Lightroom at all, no need. If you want LR to help you sort your files, then you can use it for that, but I prefer to sort and save everything myself manually. For processing, PS can do everything LR can, and more. Personal preference though, there's no right or wrong. The workflow in this video can work in both anyways.
How did you get the file from Lightroom classic to camera raw?
No Lightroom used. Just open straight to PS.
I’m going to try something new , I did some AI stuff but didn’t like it , but I’m ready to play with Lightroom more .
❤️🙏🏻
How does this editing style suit a landscape that has the light coming from behind the photographer, compared to the shooting into the light.
Very similar approach. Just check the rest of my channel for other examples.
Very nice guide, once again :)
Lately it's not the "how" to edit a file that's really bothering me, it's the amount of files and the time it takes. We came back from our summer road trip across Italy with some 450gb of photos and videos and god damn does it take a while to process... I wish it could be faster ^^
Haha I know the feeling. I just dive in and start making the selections on what is worth keeping, then begin deleting the rest.
@@WilliamPatinoPhotography Yeah, i try to do the same... It's a bit hard to filter because on top of "hobby" or "artsy" pictures, these are also "family" pictures too and even tho some are "bad" on a photography level, they are still worth keeping for other reasons.
I've started applying similar edits to batches of photos a bit more now, since editing every individual shot is a bit too much. I go in with individual edits, brushes and stuff on the best ones, but it still takes a while.
Kinda makes one want to go back to shooting JPG, doesn't it? ;)
Yes, it’s definitely time consuming, but for me that’s part of the fun. I take photos in the woods, only loosely framed, and am often amazed at what I “find” as I zoom in and around the photos on my computer later. I never throw a photo out till I’ve done that. I found a fine frog sitting at the bottom of a pool of water once that way! Never saw him in my camera. We’ve got so many pixels to work with now, it can be an entirely different kind of adventure.
@@jmhatyoutube6283 You are right about the cropping part! My camera is "only" 24mp, so nothing like the insane 100mp monsters people use now, but it's still pretty "forgiving" in terms of cropping. Indeed, often i end up with a composition that's very different from my original shot. Must be because i am generally an amateur and my comps suck on location, but being able to "salvage" a shot by cropping a bit is pretty nice :)
I understand having true black at the foreground fading to grey the further one goes into the background but I feel that the foreground in the sample photo was/remained underexposed. It feels unnatural to have such a dark foreground, like a very heavy vignette at the bottom part. I appreciate different people, different aesthetics but how do you 'explain' the foreground being so dark, darker than the side of the cliff that is in the shade.
Could be your monitor. I can see all the details here. Thanks :)
Way too much to take in.
