Luminar AI - A First Look
My friends at Skylum shared a pre-release version of Luminar AI with me … so I can share some first looks and thoughts with you! Join me in a brief video and see:

Skylum announced Luminar AI yesterday. What is this new tool? I’ve got some details and thoughts for you.
There is a quirky thing with Single Image Edits in Luminar. Once you’ve opened an image for a single edit, you can’t open it a second time for a separate session.
The Smart Contrast slider in Luminar is too-often overlooked. You should be using this in your workflow.
If you’re not diving into the Advanced Settings area of the Vignette tool you are missing out.

He also can't help getting his feet wet photographing at the beach.
