4 Seasons in the Dark Forest – Landscape Photography Editing

Course 4 Seasons in the Dark Forest – Landscape Photography Editing. In this comprehensive tutorial, I’ll show you how to process six different forest photos taken in different conditions, seasons, and lighting. In this complete 4-part video tutorial, you’ll learn how to edit forest photos from all seasons. We’ll cover summer, spring, and several phases of fall and winter photography so you can confidently head into any forest if the conditions are right. But you still have to go in the right conditions. What you will learn in this tutorial is not how to save a bad image, but how to make a good image great. The videos cover a total of nearly 7 hours of processing, including full raw processing to the final 6 images and two hours of instructional videos on setting the correct colors, masking brightness, and selecting channels.
