- In this tutorial, I am going to show you how to produce a Black and White Day-To-Night image from this RAW photograph taken of the Playhouse, near Charing Cross Station, London, England. We will be using the latest versions of Adobe Lightroom Classic and Photoshop to fully utilise the new AI tools available.
If you would like to follow along, you can find the original photograph here:- drive.google.c...

Jamie, I am 73 and picking up Photography again. Your videos are so inspirational and the art work is stunning. You epitomize the words of Ansel Adams; You don't take photographs. You create art! Thank you again!
I am honoured to be mentioned in the same paragraph as Ansel Adams, as he is my true hero. Your words mean a lot to me and are very much appreciated 😀 thank you
Unbelievably instructive tutorial. Many thanks for this, Jamie. Just when I'm getting back into Lightroom and Photoshop this was the tutorial that I needed.
I am very happy to hear this, welcome back 😀
Just fabulous. The great thing about this lesson is that it can be applied to so many things...not just black and white. I've found a few old daytime shots I took that I will apply what I learned in this video. You put a smile on this old man's face. Thank you so much, Jamie!
Thank you for your kind words, and your comment, it is very much appreciated 😀
Awesome tutorial!! The B&W looks great. I've got a picture of the outside of Grand Central Station in New York and I think it will look good as a B&W. This tutorial will be very helpful.
thank you 😀 and best of luck with the grand central station image !
There was a whole lot to learn in that hour. Just WOW
Thank you and I am glad you enjoyed it 😀
Thumbs up and subscribed. Nice info, very well explained. Thank you.
Thank you Juan, great to have you on board 😀
Brilliant job, really love the comment about ironically taking out the cctv camera! 😂
Nothing like a bit of George Orwell 🙂
Hello Jamie. Great video. Again, I've learned new things from your video. Keep them coming.
thank you, Bernie, I will do my best. Just arrived in San Francisco, so looking forward to shooting here 😀
Love it. Lots of patience and dedication to editing your photos. That's one thing that AI will never, ever be able to do. Render and image to artist/photographer's liking.
Kudos. 🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
thank you for your kind words, and I very much appreciate the comment 😀
Thank you, thanks for sharing.
You are very welcome 😀
A master at work 👍
thank you 😀
This is fantastic work! making a simple photograph stand out in all it's glory. Keep up the good work a pleasure to watch and thank you for taking us along with you.
Thank you very much, you kind words are very much appreciated 😀
Hi Jamie, First one of yours I've seen...very impressed. I will have to give it a go.... Colin..
Hi Colin, you started with one of my more complex day-to-night videos, I do have some more straightforward ones, a good starting point is "How to Light Lanterns" 😀
I've been watch photographic videos for a number of years as always willing to learn, just never come across your before, plus I use radial gradients as well but think you make a great use of them. Well done. Colin.
An amazing display of Lightroom skill to produce a stunning final image.
Thank you Tim, I very much appreciate your comment 😀
An excellent tutorial clearly explained
many thanks 😀
I have only recently discovered your channel and subscribed. This is a fantastic edit - thank you.
thanks for your kind words and comment 😀
Hello Jamie, I recently came across your channel and have watached several videos. I have been learning quite a bit from your instruction. Thanks very much, I was getting into a slump as far as photography goes and this is giving me renewed interest and paths to follow. Keep em coming.
I am very happy to hear that I have helped you regain your interest in Photography, and I also appreciate your kind words very much 😀
So great!
thanks you 😀
what a amazing tutorial .. really great man ... thanks
thank you for your comment and kind words 😀
Thank you very very very much my friend l am really thankful of you
You are very welcome, and I very much appreciate the comment 😀
nice
You are amazing thank you very much
You are most welcome 😀
Another great tutorial to have a go at .
best of luck Carl 😀and thanks for the comment !
Hi Jamie . Enjoying watching your videos . I have tried a day to night on one of my photos .
It is all about practice, but also taking the time to look at how lights falls and is projected at night, particularly from light fittings and lanterns. Happy for you to send me a message on my FaceBook page with a copy of one of your day-to-night shots for critic 😀:- facebook.com/JRMathlin
@@jamiermathlin thanks will send it over
love it! i did notice that the shadows from the trash bins were left in as they weren't lasso'ed, so there are random shadows with no sources in the final image haha, but awesome workflow
You have a keen eye :-)
Jamie, this process is a fantastic find. Thanks for sharing. This opens up a whole new world for my daytime photography!
It is a lot of fun, and the great thing is you can generally make something out of nothing 😀
Love your editing technique thanks for sharing. Just subbed.
thanks for your kind words and great to have you onboard my adventure 😀
Pure brilliance (no pun intended). Thanks for sharing your amazing skills.
You are very welcome. thank you for taking the time to leave a comment 😀
Amazing work! I love watching you realizing your artistic vision, very impressive. Thanks.
Thank you for your kind words and comment they are much appreciated 😀
Thanks.. true artist!
thank you 😀
Loved this post! I look forward to seeing more of your work
Many thanks for the comment, feel free to see my earlier videos, I cover many different topics that follow several different workflows. I always welcome feedback 😀
Just amazing. I learned something new and already implemented it on some of older Italy photos from Vendig. The results are awesome. Thanks a lot for sharing these approaches. I'll keep watching out for more from you going forward. When I post them I will mention you and give you credit for this great idea.
Hi Marc, thank you for your kind words and comment, feel free to subscribe to my channel, then you will have access to all my 50+ videos, and you will see when I release a new one each week 😀
you are amazing - what a talent
thank you so much, your comment is very much appreciated 😀
Just found your channel. A refreshing change from the short 'how to use this tool' videos. A real masterclass in approach and application techniques. Liked and subscribed, and will now look at your other videos. One query: main street light not lit from left and yet three shadows to the right of it up to the tree?
Thanks for the comment and kind words, as well as your observation regarding shadows. to explain, I do not practice my videos, what you see is me finding my way within a new image and trying to keep the videos below one hour, therefore, they is a tendency to miss a few things. When I process an image to keep, I do revisit them a few times over a couple of days to be sure I have captured everything 😀
Gosh, an honest CZcamsr - definitely worth clicking subscribe (only joking)😊. I fully understand that approach and that is true masterclass style. Thank you. Already trying your approach on my own images. Looking forward to seeing much more of your work and passing channel recommendation to others.
I want to pick your brain again, when importing images into Lightroom I’m always confused on how the correct, right way to do this, and as you probably know I’m using my MacBook Pro.
Much appreciated
Simon
I did a video a while ago on how I import into LR, have you seen it ? czcams.com/video/-c0jWBbApGE/video.html&ab_channel=JamieRMathlin
merci , très bonne video, très instructive
Merci pour le commentaire et vos aimables mots, c'est très apprécié.
Thank you Sir! I now know what I´ll be doing the whole winter!
glad I could be of service 😀
Excellent, really appreciate such a move by move with explanation video.
thank you for your comment, it is very much appreciated 😀
Incredible video. You are a true artist. Do you have an art background ? painting ? Your being able to deduce what a night time black-and-white photo should look like is incredible. Enjoyed seeing how well (and how much) you utilitze the Lightroom-ACR masking capability. Congratulations on a really fascinating tutorial.
Thank you for your comment Stan and your kind words, to answer your question regarding being an artist in my background: no not really, however, I do something that I always suggest to fellow photographers to help me understand light and colour, this being 'spend time looking at the world around you, even when you do not have a camera in your hand'. Have a look at some of my other videos, I have many different techniques 😀
What a nice and good tutorial ! Thank you very much. It makes me wanting to do the same on one of my pictures. Thank you again.
thank you for your comment and kind words, it is very much appreciated 😀
well done
thanks you 😀
Fantastic tutorial. I quite enjoyed the video.
Thank you Carl 😀
thanks and great job.... loved the final
thank you
Brilliant, I had a go at this on one of my street photography shots
hope it turned out ok, thanks for the comment 😀
@@jamiermathlin yes it was good thanks and an enjoyable project the new AI features of a LR and PS helped me transform a shot I took in 2018. And of course your knowledge.
Thank you 💗💗
thank you 😀
thank you ~ so much bro~
you are very welcome 😀
With your videos in mind, I am looking in another way to the scenerys. Top video, left an abo. I would have removed the three shadows at the left side on the bottom.
I am glad to have been of some help, and thanks for the comment it is appreciated 😀
Another excellent D2N. Thank you for sharing. Although the 3 shadows in front of the tree were bugging me. I have followed a couple of your D2N videos. I have been trying to illuminate lamps and windows a slightly different way. I have been using the select object(s) tool and then intersecting the selection(s) with the radial selection tool (and then refining it). I think that it works quite well.
Hi Alan, I have tried that myself a few times, but I never seemed to be able to get the look I generally go for, perhaps it needs more practice, it is the blending of the shadows on the window frames that I struggle with. Thanks for the comment, it is very much appreciated 😀
@@jamiermathlin I see. When, for example, you have 4 panes of glass in a window, selecting the 4 panes as objects tends to soften the edges of the window frame. Rather than having the harsh line of a brush.
I will say that your image lighting is excellent.
When you put a shadow below a lamp post, could this be done with a small 'subtract radial mask'?
I have just come across your work and very impressed. I wonder if you could recommend a tutorial that would be a starting point to help me through the journey to achieve something like your level of excellence. Thank you … i am now a subscriber and look forward to exploring your catalog and new tutorials.
Serge Ramelli is a great tutorial, he offers paid tuition and has a massive back catalog of video. I will continue to make more videos 😀
Thank you I was more interested in your videos really as I liked your style, presentation and content . I have seen some of his videos before but will take another look.
Jamie how about doing a tutorial with selective colour, I follow your tutorials and enjoy your work
thanks for the suggestion, I will see if I can do something around selective colour 😀
Love your tutorials. Would it be possible to supply a sample image that we could follow along with? Please.
Hi Cindy, yes, the link is in the comment 😀
Absolute sorcery! One question I have is about the roundtrip to Ps and back - when it returns do you have a tif at that point or is it smart enough to keep everything in DNG?
Great tutorial, learned heaps here 👍
Thanks for your kind words, and your question, you can set Photoshop to export back to Lightroom in a number of formats, the most common two are TIFF and PNG, personally I would prefer it export back to DNG, but this is not an option. All the formats are 16 Bit so there is no loss in dynamic range or colour depth 😀
Great work but didn’t you forget about the shadows of the rubbish bins?
I did forget them. In trying to stay under an hour for my tutorials, it does not give me time to stop, pause and review, as you would normally do, Instead, I have to produce a perfect video in one take without making too many mistakes and providing a detailed commentary as I go, it is tough 😀but I am starting to get the hang of it !
@@jamiermathlin A very interesting video nevertheless, great work.
Is adding colour to the lights in 'colour' mode really necessary when you tune it to black and white anyway ?
Great Question, the reason I do it is that I want to get the image looking as realistic as possible before I go to the black and white module, I have noticed that blue-white light renders differently from warm-white light once we change to Black and White 😀
I also really liked the edited colour version
I saw someone saying you should delete the unused gen fill options as they make the file size larger, do you think that is true ?
having multiple layers open does increase the file size when you move back to Lightroom, the TIFF file can get very large, I have experimented with leaving the layers and merging the layers and I do notice a difference. As a result, I work on the logic that if I have created the image as I want it, then I do not need to go back and change it, so less disk space is the preferred route 😀
Incredible Adobe Ps. How to enable Gen Fill, any plugin?
You need to load the Photoshop beta version 25.0 from the adobe creative cloud app, however there is currently an issue with the beta version so you cannot transfer between LrM and PS and back again, you have to do the transfer manually.
@@jamiermathlin thank for your prompt reply, im exited to try this AI feature.
@@jamiermathlin thank you master, in my case gen fill did not work due existing Ps 2021 installed in my PC. When I unstalled it, boom! generative fill is awesome but sometimes funny image is generated. Still exploring this AI feature. Very interesting.
Really impressive work but this is 1% photography skill 99% editing ( i gotta say his aprroch is outstanding and very artistic) . Bur again, this is killing photography, whats the diference between this and put some prompt on a AI editor to generate a full image
The difference is that I have a great deal of fun doing it 😀 ! and maybe 50% photography as I have to make sure I compose correctly and ensure that I have the correct exposure for the maximum dynamic range 🙂
