Vložit
- čas přidán 6. 08. 2024
- Sometimes your images might look a bit flat and one super fast thing to do is to apply some color grading with gradient maps in Photoshop. Gradient Maps are an adjustment layer in Photoshop and used creatively, with a few handy tips, you'll have your photos looking atmospheric and "finished" in seconds, with all the "pop" and "impact" you could ask for 🤓
Gradient maps are powerful things, and paired with Photoshops blend modes and masks, you have everything you need to take an image from blah to banging, literally.

This is great! This reminds me of the color grading panel in Lightroom but with a bit more control and masking ability. I would surely like to know which is better to use, liquefy or warp and or when it's best to use each. I did put this in the suggestion box. I know you did some manipulation for your dog/wolf series and am curious as to what you did. My dog has a bit of hair on his back that likes to grow in weird ways and with the photo I took of him at the park I ended up using the liquefy tool. It turned out okay but I think it could have been better. Just recently I gave my dog a hair cut and cut the fur in that area a little shorter in hopes it will grow a bit straighter. I have a Brittany not a Ridgeback, lol. Happy Birthday to this channel. It's awesome!!!
I find gradient maps are so much better than the colour grading module in Lightroom, so much more control 😊
Very nice done.
A couple of little sliders and it makes an big difference.
Like your video's more and more.
Now time to try it on my own photo's.
Thank you for your kind words and I am glad you are liking our videos 🙂
Hopefully this proves useful for you on your own work 🤓
Happy Birthday!!!
Thank you 😊
Great video!! Never used gradient maps before. Will try them out! Can I ask if gradient maps is the same or similar to split toning/colour grading in Lightroom? Where you can colour the shadows and highlights different colours. Thank you!
yes it is, the difference is you can’t apply them in blend modes in Lightroom 😊
Happy birthday to the best youtube channel :)
Thank you so much 🙏
Great job. Greetings from Poland
Thank you so much 😊
Besides the ones in photoshop, can other ones be purchased?
Tutorial starts after 3 minutes , just fast forward . great episode
Thank you very much 🙏
Hi Jess, just found your channel. Excellent content. Question: did you do a video describing the editing process on your award winning print? I saw in one of your videos where you mentioned the RAW file.
Hi Chris, thank you for the great feedback. There are several videos on producing prints but if it’s the actual work flow for our award winning work we have a course available on our website on how to create the award winning style of work from 2020.
Thanks Jess, this was an interesting video, would you say that when you shoot, you focus most on composition and focus and then in post production you are usually able to create something amazing with every photo in post production?
If it’s composed correctly and the focus is in the right place then it’s easy to create something great 😊
Thank You! Yes please show us how to match the tones from another image
You're so welcome, we do have more information on this within our MTog community (premium membership). So pleased you're enjoying the videos 😊
Happy Birthday! Was the first pic taken with the sigma 105 f1.4?
We used a Sony 135mm 1.8 GM lens 😊
Love your videos...but love your sense of humour even more 🤣
Thank you so much for your kind words 🙏
Just a query, I have been trying out your gradient map tutorial, I have hit a few problems. In the editor section where your pen bar is darkest left to right mine is the other way round. Its darker to the right and light on the left...has anyone else had this issue at all?
If it's the wrong way round, you should be able to either drag the pins to the opposite sides or use the reverse button. Hope that helps 😊
Thank you. I was seeing the same issue with whites showing “black” on the properties panel!
I have a question… how do you get your dogs to behave so well when your in say, the forest/woods? Mine will literally want to do anything but pay attention to me.
It's certainly not something that happens overnight and takes a lot of training 😊
I didnt know you lived near Beverley
Yeah, not too far away 😊
So………. You’re a ‘pretty decent’ photographer like Lewis Hamilton is a pretty decent driver and Ronaldo is a pretty decent footballer………. You’re the queen! Xx
Thank you 🙏 😊
3:24 starts talking about gradient maps
🤣 there are time stamps in the description and the entire video is segmented
Jess, I love your videos!!! Yet i would like to leave a bit of critisism if you dont mind. First you say something like "do whatever you want", 2 minutes later you remind people not too fiddle too much with the colour of the coat. Let's be honest, this "do whatever you want" slogan that many pros use is a little bit overrated. Motivating for lazy beginners, yes, but kinda impractical - some stuff just looks bad.
The lamp on your desk is really annoying/distracting when you speak.
Sorry you find this so annoying
Like your videos a lot... But you talk soooooooo fast... That is really hard to follow
You can slow down the playback speed using the little cog icon in the bottom corner of the video, and you can also use subtitles too translated to any language (usually!) using the CC icon in the same area 🤓
@@ThatPhotographySpot WOW i did not know that. thanks a lot
Please just simply do the tutorial rather than all the extra talking
Thank you
You are very welcome 😊
