⚠ The sale I ran when this video launched has been finished for a while (sorry)⚠ But, a LOT of you have messaged me, disappointed to have missed out. So... it's back, but 𝑳𝑰𝑴𝑰𝑻𝑬𝑫 to the 𝑭𝑰𝑹𝑺𝑻 25 people only. Use code "save80" at checkout bit.ly/AT-Textures . These textures are the result of 6 years of collecting and curating the very best textures from my travels around the world ✈︎🌎. No fillers, all 240 high-resolution files are super useable as photo overlays. There's grunge, cracks and marble, painterly, canvas, distressed, textured vignettes etc. etc. it's got a lot! Enjoy.
Please keep those details in your videos - for me they are what makes them so much more valuable than most. I just picked up the textures bundle after watching the last video and am very impressed and excited to get creative with them. 😎👍
You are great. I am old and failing, but you are my Luminar Neo guru. I appreciate that comments you made at the beginning of treasuring images of passing people and pets. My Mother is 95 and my Yorkie is 19 (that is about 120 human years). In my opinion, do not modify your content to what the average RU-vid watcher wants. If your average viewer is like me, we really want the down and dirty process of editing. I really appreciate the the in depth of your edits, describing to me, an idiot, how you work your magic.
Thanks Anthony! Awesome video. Please keep up with in depth videos. It's the level of detail I am seeking that makes it easier to learn overall and you're an excellent instructor!
I thoroughly enjoyed watching a full video and seeing everything that I’m not doing in Luminar Neo and knowing it’s at my fingertips. You did an amazing job! Thank you so much for posting this. I just got a new puppy and I can’t wait to try it.
I wonder why you did not use GenExpand to fill in the bottom of the image. Frankly, I found it to be very unreliable and dropped the subscription. Skylum still needs to revise the masking and improve the layers function as you recommend. Very good video
Very inspirational. Thanks for the detailed demonstration of how you think through and implement your vision. My imagination is seriously lacking and need the step by step process. Going to watch your How to Add Textures video now and then buy your textile package and give it a try.
I'm really proud of the texture pack I've put together. Over 6 years of documenting high-quality textures from around the world and the addition of painterly textures, brush strokes, canvases etc. To run in conjunction with this and the previous texture video (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VQwslOxdBbo.html) I'm running an 80% discount plus the textured vignettes for free.

Yeah that would have been nice. I think I've always been wary of spot coloring ever since it was done to death in the early 2000's. But maybe it's time for a comeback! 😀
@@AnthonyTurnham True, it was overdone back then, but I still like it once in a while, and the focal point of the picture was the dog's eyes, which are very nice. But maybe I would have done a selected color pic and decided total b&w was the way to go. Ya never know! :)
Since creating this video Luminar Neo has been updated and improved. You can get the newest version on sale here: bit.ly/NeoSale and maybe save more with coupon: ATNEO10 (sometimes Skylum de-activate the code if there's already a promotion running but worth giving a go!)
Goodday Anthony, Thankyou for your help. At 27 min 11 sec into the video, you displayed the picture framed in a setting. If you would not mind, could you direct me where to find this. It really accentuated the image. Have a blessed day. Regards, Jaco.
I like the more in depth step by step video , if you have not got the attention span to watch and learn a 20/30 minute tutorial then you should not take up photography , for myself at the age of 60 I need step by step tutorials 😂
Is the Luminar Neo lifetime perpetual subscription worth it? I have enjoyed using my current version from last year but subscription is about to end. Currently they have a sale on it
Hi Rob, good question. You may have the two models on offer merged together. So it's either a perpetual license, or a rolling subscription. Personally I like to own my software so I'd go for the lifetime license. The benefit of a subscription is you get the generative AI tools (genErase, genSwap and GenExpand) during your subscription - none of which I really use but each person is different... you may feel they're a necessity for your workflow... Also going forward it seems that while as a lifetime user you get updates for free, Skylum seem to save a few bespoke features for the subscribers. But if you get a license upgrade now you'll be up to date at the time of purchase including all the new tools. Hope that helps.
I would have removed the spot highlights in the dog's eyes to give more impact ... as it is the eyes are the most important aspect of the photo and those eyes are just confusing because of the highlights
Fair enough. Personally I like the highlights as I feel it gives the eyes a sparkle. But sure, if they're not your cup of tea then they could be removed.
