I love how we can use techniques in Photoshop to do more than one thing. In this video I show how a GREAT technique that I call the Never Ending Lighting Rig for adding in more lights to your picture can also be used to enhance eyes in portraits by brightening them, adding in fake catch lights and making them POP!

Thanks! I'm certainly going to try this. FYI, I'm hooked on your 20/10 method, it really makes the faces pop.
That's great to hear Nick; I use that one all the time ð
I learn so much from your videos. I have been watching your stuff for years now and it continues to inspire me. You explain everything so simply. Thanks! ð
I just finished watching your timeless course that I purchased after the virtual summit and I have been wondering how your printing course it coming along?
Sue that's great to hear...thank you.
As for the printing course...I plan to have that all done and released towards the end of July ðð»
he manages to explain it so well that I don't even need to watch the video, I can follow his instructions from voice alone which is very impressive. Great work and please keep the content coming.
Dear Glyn,
thank you very much for your great videos.
greetings from germany
Marcel
That's very kind of you Marcel...thanks so much. Greetings from the UK ðð»
Hi Glyn, did you use the same LUT and retouching workflow as in the timeless photos?
Hi Milton, for this one yeah ðð»
Can we create catch light brush for future .
I like your thinking...yeah will look at doing that ðð»
Nice...
I do it by duplicate de eye, change the blending to screen or soft light, and adjust accordingly. Nevertheless, good to know different ways to achieve a certain result... Cheers!
Nice one ðð»
I just use a Curves layer, brighten it, invert it & then paint over the eye to reveal the Curves layer. You can then alter opacity to suit or go back & adjust the Curves layer. Much quicker. I do like your never ending light effect though.
Cheers
I like this. But when I group them and try to move the layers it moves only one layer. How do I get it to move both as in your video?
Look in the far left of the options bar at the top of the screen when you are using the Move Tool; I'm guessing you have 'Auto Select Layer' ticked ... just un-tick that and you'll be good ð
Coming from a fine art background as a sketch artist to photography, I've had plenty of people take notice to the way I capture a person's eyes. The thing I always keep in mind: our eyes are not a camera. So if we want to capture the image as we see the person, then the camera itself isn't going to. A camera has a set dynamic range, and so does our eyes...but our eyes don't stay constant, whereas an image can't change. So when you look at a person's face, if you look at their nose, your eyes will adjust the pupil size, much like the camera adjusts the aperture accordingly...but then if you focus on their eyes, it will adjust there as well. And as our brain processes what we are focusing on, it doesn't take into account that change as we look at a person in real life. The image, to replicate a more "realistic" look to reality, must accomplish this in a still image. So I always brighten the eyes relative to the subject. I use a brush made from an iris to bring up the details slightly using a Linear Dodge (Add) blending option on selective colour layer (so that I can adjust colours in the eye to add more contrast if needed, although seldom is it), and then adding the translucent lighting like here. Give it just enough opacity on each layer to make the eyes pop, and there is a massive difference in the quality of the image.

It is very well explained but I don't like how these effects look, they are unreal, for the type of fantastic photography, which is what is most seen lately, it can be very useful.
TBH I wouldnât be using them on portraits if they didnât look ârealâ
