Part 2 of our Editing Night Photos series and it is time to get technical.One of the biggest mistakes I see people making when they open Photoshop actually happens before they even get to the program. It’s how we actually think about Photoshop and what it can do for our images. Photoshop is not actually used to “fix” our images. And especially as night photographers where there is not a lot of room for recovery of images when there is so little light available to record in the first place.No, instead Photoshop is a tool like any other that we use to help create our images. And when we are talking specifically night photography Photoshop is the tool that lets us break free from editing only single images in Lightroom or Adobe Camera Raw.And like anything, we will do our best work in Photoshop when we understand the whole system. If you want to be able to create beautiful images using Photoshop then you need to have the right source material - ie. create the right photos.Today’s episode is a bigger picture look at when do we start using Photoshop (vs just LR or ACR) and then more granular at the specific shooting techniques and how those work inside the Photoshop editing process.If you want to learn more about all of this it will be covered in my 2-part free training series coming up November 1st and 3rd.
