Editing an Underwater Photo in Camera Raw

I pretty much have my editing process in Adobe Camera Raw down pat by this point. I’ve processed enough photos to know that my standard settings don’t vary much. Perhaps an extra nudge here or there, but in general, I can edit photos with my eyes closed. I will tell you that each type of […]

Using Adobe Camera Raw to Remove Color Fringe

If you’re using a less expensive lens or are shooting in some weird lighting, you may have noticed some glowing edges in your photos. These glowing edges are called color fringe, or chromatic aberration. I’m pretty sure that every single serious photographer under the sun has experienced this type of thing in their photography, so […]

Can I Open a Photo as a Smart Object into Photoshop From Camera Raw?

Question: I’ve been reading about how it’s beneficial to open photos from Camera Raw into Photoshop as Smart Objects and then edit them, rather than opening them in Camera Raw, editing them and then transferring them to Photoshop for further processing. From what I’ve read, if you open the images as Smart Objects in Photoshop […]

What’s the Easiest Way to Fix Over-Exposure & Under-Exposure Clipping?

Question: I constantly work on photos with my clipping indicators turned on in Adobe Camera Raw. Oftentimes, I see the red and blue blotches all over my photos and I have to make massive changes just to get rid of them. This is especially true with light and dark photographs. I don’t like changing things […]

I recently purchased a very nice Canon PIXMA Pro-100 color photo printer to start printing out some of my better photographs and I have to tell you, the printer is nothing short of outrageously high quality. I have seen the photos that I printed out dozens of times on my computer screen, but that doesn’t […]

Using the Camera Raw Smart Filter & Masks in Adobe Photoshop

There are many methods for adjusting the color and tone of images inside of Adobe Photoshop, but I have to be honest here when I say that I much prefer using Camera Raw for my editing. While Photoshop does a good job of fixing up images and making them look much better than they did […]

How Can I Make a Photo Look Antique?

To make a modern photo appear as though it’s an antique, there are only a few different things you’ll need to do to it. You can perform these functions in many photo editors, such as Adobe Photoshop or Lightroom, but I chose to “antique” a recent photo using Adobe Camera Raw, which, if you aren’t […]

Making a Photograph Look Antique in Adobe Camera Raw

I love these types of projects because they’re so easy to pull off and they truly alter the look of a photo. Original images straight out of the camera are fun, but what’s even more fun is changing things up so the image appears as though it’s from a different era. While there are many […]

Combining Camera Raw Edited Photos in Adobe Photoshop For Awesome Color

Cameras have ranges. They have trouble capturing extremes in both directions. For example, if you were trying to take a photo of something and there was pure black and pure white in the scene, your camera would have difficulty with accurately representing that in the final photo. The same is true when it comes to […]
