“Really amazing course! Fulfilled my expectations.”
“This [course] is truly excellent. I have been using multiple generations of On1 tools and never appreciated their power.”
It is beyond a great feeling to help my fellow photographers grow their craft and make better photos. Thanks to everyone that's picked up Mastering Light & Shadow In ON1 Photo and for all the feedback. Of course, I love the rave reviews. I also love your question. Tons of insightful questions - and that tells me you are really digging into the course and getting the most out of ON1 Photo RAW.
“I loved your course, especially the 10 zones and how to target each of them.”
A question asked several times was about the photo of Il Duomo in the 'Shaping Your Photo' chapter. So... I decided to create a start-to-finish processing video for it. The processing session came in at a whopping 40+ minutes! I've added the processing video and a practice image to the course.
If you already own Mastering Light & Shadow, the bonus content is available in the same place as the course. The link is listed in the "Download & Install Guide" PDF that came with the course.
“Brilliant course!!!”
If you haven't checked out the course, I have 3 of the chapters available to watch for free on the product page.
A little glow can bring atmosphere to a landscape photo, but spreading it everywhere can weaken the scene. How do you give that light a direction while keeping the shadows quiet and the brightest details intact?
Using the Sunshine filter in ON1 Effects, I shape a soft glow through a forest scene toward the water. The approach builds on an editing vision and shows how a few complementary masking tools can help you follow through on it.
