Really awesome - hadn't the graduated density filter in mind as it is named quite differently in German - now I know hot to … Coming from Capture One, which I still use for the whole organizing jobs and on DT since a few months and absolutely overwhelmed on what to be able to do with DT. THX
Was done with this video as soon as you said Instagram, these videos don't really help anyone that actually does photography not cell phone point and click pictures but real photography.
You might need to make sure the normals of your mesh are correct. Sometimes, if the normals are not facing outward, then the extrusion does not work properly
Thanks for walking through the L*a*b* stuff ... as I'm colourblind (especially red-green, but other issues also), I have to be extra careful not to break my photos' colours as I dig into my editing mojo ... this seems to be a wonderful tool in the toolbox.
Glad this was helpful! I have been planning this tutorial for a while. Also, if color blindness is a difficulty for you, check your histogram and RGB parade to help with verifying whether an issue has a red green shift.
@@filifilms the short answer is no. RT has the local adjustments tool which gives a circle or rectangle mask but you can't adjust those masks into the shape of a leaf. I just came out with a tutorial on the local adjustments tool here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-O2W8UYds4bQ.htmlfeature=shared Usually I make my adjustments, export a PNG and then open the PNG in GIMP or Photoshop. If you want to mask something within a RAW editing software package, check out Darktable. That program has the ability to make custom masks and it's free just like Rawtherapee
@@jacobswing oh wow that seems like a lot of work just to mask something out. I only asked because I’m used to using it in Lightroom. Have you tried it Lightroom let you select or Deke select an object more or less depending on exactly what do you want to select
@@filifilms Lightroom tries to bridge the gap between being a RAW editing software and a photo manipulation software. RT on the other hand is only concerned with processing RAW photographs so it doesn't have any extra photo manipulation features. I would recommend that you check out Darktable. It's the best Lightroom "clone" out there. You can add masks by drawing them. The downside is Darktable isn't great for batch processing. RT is much better for that
@@nisdonatzsky very true. This video was specific to the split toning tool but Darktable has so any great tools and myriad ways of achieving a specific look
I just want to be able to sort by date - the newest at the top - so I don't have to go fishing for where my new images are in the browser. Is there a way to do that? - edit: found it.
Yes this is a great question and I am glad you found the answer. I am going to write it out here just in case anyone else has that same question. To sort images by name, date, exif data, rank, or color label, right click in the file browser image window and go down to the sort files menu. Here you can choose any of the above mentioned properties as sorting criteria. You can also sort by these properties in ascending or descending order.
@@jacobswing Hello Sir. Vivid, saturated color using Darktable has been an issue. Split Toning has been a huge help, however, I am not getting a full range of intense color. Would appreciate a video on how to saturate individual colors. Also, how to get best results reducing noise using Darktable. Thank you so much for your expertise and tutorials. Greatly appreciated.
