One photo - three creative edits in Luminar Neo and Photoshop

 Creating Three Moody Images out of One Shot I initially didn't plan to create three or more different images out of this photograph. I wanted to see how I can edit this foggy somehow chaotic forest image in Luminar Neo. I liked the atmosphere and I can still recall the morning I took this photo. I knew I had to make a lot of chnages , because of all the distracting twigs on the left and right hand side as well as at the top of the frame. First Step - Editing in Luminar Neo I usually develop my images in Lightroom Classic  but decided to use Luminar Neo this time because I wanted to see how their various creative in part AI powered tools inspire me. Basic edits were quickly done. I usually start with Luminar's Enhance AI, I found this tool often leads to considerable improvements to build upon.

fRee texTure WednesDay

Hello,

I made so many new textures, that I thought, I can give some away for free, at least the ones that I didn't include in the Pick-your-own-texture gallery on my homepage.

So, here is the first one:
You can create cool painterly effects with this one!

Download
Green pastel brush
Aus Free texture


Feel free to use it in your personal and commercial artwork, but do not claim it as your own and please no re-selling!
I have a texture group on flickr, it would be nice if you post your work over there, if you have an flickr account!

Thanks.

I used this texture on this picture

Summer Wave
Tip: to bring out the brush strokes more clearly I used two layers of the green pastel brush texture.
The first one was set at Colour Burn 47% opacity/ 55% fill and the second one at Vivid Light 17% opacity and 57% fill.
Doubling texure layers and using different blending modes works quite well.

Have a nice day!
