  • There is a tool in Lightroom that I use more than any other. It is really easy to use and means you do more in Lightroom and less in Photoshop. I love it!

    I have to say, this is one of the few times a video about a “hidden tool/feature!” in Lightroom actually taught something I didn’t know that is also incredibly useful. Thanks!

    Nigel - I have been away from photography for a few years because I had feet and leg problems too! They really limited my physical abilities for the last several years. I had surgery yesterday to repair what was essentially an aneurism of my spinal cord! Today I can feel my feet for the first time in close to 4 years. I now have hope that I can return to photography. I have followed you for years. Today I came to your channel to get familiar with some of the new Lightroom features. I had no idea you had gone through back problems!

    LOL Nigel, I have been requesting this feature and hadn't realized it was here. THANK YOU! On a side note, your back... My Uncle owned a landscaping company and made it big, he was the main landscaper for Disneyland back in the late 80's or 90's. He was hands on and as such destroyed his back. He's had 3 surgeries, was supposed to have just 1, the subsequent surgeries were to fix the first one. After the third, he was still in pain but decided not to do it again. They gave him pills (almost got completely hooked), the pills eased the pain but weakened his overall health making it more difficult to heal. This went on for years, but a few months after his 3rd surgery, he felt the dependence of the pills, it scared him and he stopped them but was still in enough pain he couldn't function normally. Being that we are in California he decided to give Marijuana a try. After 4 months, his back started to feel tolerable, even when he wasn't using it. I don't know the exact science behind it but there's been some research to show that Cannabis may actually help in the healing of bones. Where as pills actually hurt the healing process, weaken your mind and body.
    Just some food for thought. You are an incredible photographer, I strive to reach your skill level and level of success, it would be a tragedy if something like your back prevented you from moving forward in your career.
    Speedy recovery!
    Justin

    I wanted to wish you a full and speedy recovery from your surgery!
    I also wanted to thank you for this video. Th is a remarkably transformative "hidden" use of an existing Lightroom tool. Or at least, I didn't know about it. Maybe I accidentally missed it as a new feature? In any case, the ability to "intersect" masks is an incredibly powerful refinement tool.
    The "select sky" mask has always been impressive for its ability to accurately select the sky (in most cases). But the practical benefits have always been limited by the (apparent) inability to soften the transition areas between sky and ground/subjects, etc.
    Thanks to this video, I now know how to soften or otherwise customize those transitions. Thank you again!
