I am so very excited to let you know that Mastering Light & Shadow in ON1 Photo is coming in September. I've hinted about a video course I've been working on. Well... this is it. Mastering Light & Shadow is the most comprehensive video course I've ever put together. I have been working on it for the better part of a year, making sure that each lesson is just right.

In Mastering Light & Shadow, I teach you everything you need to know to control and shape light & shadow in ON1 Photo. All of the video lessons are done 100% in ON1 Photo RAW. Here are just a few of the topics I cover in the more than 3 1/2 hours of video instruction:

• The reasons we shape light and shadow
• Interpreting the histogram and how ON1's sliders affect the histogram
• The differences between the various contrast controls, including Dynamic Contrast & the Tone Enhancer
• How to use blending modes, options, and luminosity masks to target specific tonal regions in your photos
• How the zone system fits in with ON1 Photo's tools
• Masking with Effects and Local Adjustments
• Finely controlled dodging & burning
• And much, much more

The course is segmented into four parts: concepts, tools, technique, and start-to-finish examples. Each video lesson builds upon the last one to reinforce key concepts. The several start-to-finish processing videos illustrate how the concepts, tools, and techniques are used together to transform your photos into rich, visual stories. Practice images are included so you can follow along.

I am putting the finishing touches on the course now. It will be available in September - and I'm aiming for sooner than later!.
