Creating Presets in Adobe Camera Raw & Applying Them via Bridge

I have no idea how popular Adobe Bridge is. Actually, I don’t think it’s very popular at all. I know a lot of people enjoy using their operating system’s file explorer tools and are fine with that. I was for years. That is, until I discovered how cool Bridge really is and until I explored […]

How to Sharpen Photos Using Adobe Camera Raw

In my last post, I talked about how to best remove noise from photos using Adobe Camera Raw. In today’s post, I’m going to follow up with a discussion that covers how to best sharpen photos in the same application. Both of these tasks are quite similar to one another, so if you haven’t read […]

Removing Noise in Photos Using Adobe Camera Raw

I just finished writing a post for my other blog. For this post, I had to edit a few photos using Adobe Camera Raw. This isn’t a big deal, but it did get me thinking. Since I do so much editing in Camera Raw and part of that editing usually involves reducing noise and sharpening […]

How to Add a Photo Filter to an Image in Adobe Photoshop

Adobe Photoshop is full of automated tools that we, as photographers and designers, can take advantage of. One group of such tools are called Photo Filters.

How to Move Apps From One Virtual Desktop to Another in Windows 10

How To Create Comments Along the Video Timeline in Adobe Photoshop

Notes are critical as well, but we’ll discuss that another time. Today, it’s all about comments. I comment when writing code. Pretty much […]

Using Layer Masks For Video in Adobe Photoshop

As you go about editing video in Adobe Photoshop, you’ll find that using layer masks is very helpful as a method for telling your story. While working on video, these layer masks act almost identically as they do when editing regular photographs. In essence, they nondestructively hide and reveal parts of a layer, depending on […]

New Features for Microsoft Edge in Windows 10

I have to be honest with you here. I’m not a big browser guy. Well, anymore that is. I suppose I was in a previous life. Like almost everyone else who used the internet since 1995, I browsed the web using Microsoft Internet Explorer. It was fine. I didn’t notice that anything was wrong with […]

Using Tone Curve to Fix Shadows & Highlights in Adobe Lightroom

I can tell you this with confidence. When editing a photo in either Adobe Lightroom or Camera Raw, I’ve never not used at least one of the primary brightness or darkness sliders in the Basic panel. The sliders I’m referring to are Highlights, Shadows, Whites and Blacks. I’m not sure how many times I’ve used […]
