Brian, I Totally agree with your sentiment of occasionally having fun with your photo developing. Tapping into the creative side of one’s personality is a good counterbalance to the technical side of thinking of things. Yang and Yang . Thanks for demonstrating this .
Of course, I loved watching this video! As I sat down for lunch and searched for a CZcams video to watch and bam a brand-new one from Brian. I'm truly fascinated by the creative possibilities LR and PS offers. While watching, an idea crossed my mind: What if you duplicated the background after the subject was removed, placed it at the top of the layer stack, and selectively revealed certain areas using masks, opacity adjustments, or blend modes? I'm eager to try and see how it turns out. Keep up the great work, Ron! 😎🤙
Thanks for a cool video. I think most people only use a small fraction of the features in Photoshop. When I look through the menus, I see a ton of features I never use and many I have no idea how or why I would ever use them, simply because I don't know what the possibilities are.
This was very interesting and I like your fun and easy way explaining and editing these images. I will definitely try this on my images. Thanks for sharing!
Very similar to the effect I’ve been learning - the Adamski Effect (Josh Adamski). Enjoyable watch Brian. (You’ve quickly moved to my #3 go to guru, you can probably guess my #1 and #2.) 👍🏻👍🏻
*Which photo editing techniques do you actually have fun with?*

My pleasure, Dave! That's also why I like the new Blur Tool in LR. It lets me get even more creative with my editing without having to use other apps.

i JUST NOW APPLIED THIS TECHNIQUE TO ONE OF MY PHOTOS AND IT TURNED OUT GREAT! I LOVE THIS! THANKS FOR SHARING.
What you did was created the Adamski Effect created by Josh Adamski. I've been using this effect for years. It's really a cool effect.
Oh wow - I had no idea he coined the effect. I’ve been using derivatives of this path blur effect for a while. Thanks for the info!
It’s always a pleasure to watch your videos
Thank you, Sol!
Excellent! Thank you 🙏🏼😃🌊
Great video. TFS
Thank you very much!
Thank you 👏

I know I'll reach pole position soon enough! 😆
Thanx
What a fun edit. Thank you.
You’re welcome, Eric!
Motion Blur with ICM (In Camera Movement).
Yes!!! I love moving the camera up and down a bit during a long exposure to get that ethereal look. Good call!
