A start to finish post-processing tutorial of the northern lights
Getting a good image of the northern lights can be a difficult task in itself. Take advantage of my many years of experience with capturing these amazing lights and how I develop them in the digital dark room.
In this tutorial we will dip into:
- Linear profiles
- Luminosity masking
- Precision masking
- Color enhancements
- Working with Smart Objects
- Blending
- Noise reduction
- Camera calibration
- And more...
In this tutorial, I have used basic functions available in Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop to take my image to the result I envisioned for my raw file.
