Water Photography Post-Processing

There are three phases to outdoor photography. The first is your planning, the second is your in-field work, and the last is the post-processing work that goes into a successful photograph.

The amount of post-processing that goes into each photograph varies, but the goal is always to create a realistic photograph that represents what you saw in the field. In this class, you’ll learn how to:

• Plan to shoot water features
• Add detail to your water features
• Merge images in Photoshop
• Create your own water photography post-processing workflow
• Manage lighting in the digital darkroom
• Use Lightroom effectively
• Use a secret pro tip to make colors pop
• Use layers and masks for water photography

In this class, with the help of your instructor David Johnston, you’ll learn how to edit your water photography with Lightroom and Photoshop – to allow you to make finishing touches that will improve your creative vision.
