Hello Robin. Thanks for the good video. The filter you used for the shot was probably a soft ND graduated filter? Then I would have created the intersection in Lightroom with your first mask and a linear gradient mask. This would allow you to "compensate" for the gradient of your filter and gradually lighten the stones. A second mask would then probably not have been necessary.
Yes, I used a filter but it was a Reverse Graduated ND, not a soft grad, so I'm not sure why the top of the rock appeared darker. Yes I could have done the intersectas you suggest but I chose not to for two reasons. First, I didn't want to over complicate the demonstration. Second, I wanted to demonstrate the tool using both the area mode and the brush mode.
One small point for Windows users. The brush size can be adjusted using the scroll wheel, which is a nice feature.
Good tip. Thank you.
Very good tutorial
Glad you think so. Thank you
