Luminar Neo - My First Impressions

Mystical Woods - move mouse over  for an before / after     In December of last year I was asked whether I'd like to take a look and try out the photo edit software Luminar Neo. So I was provided with the program and the extensions pack. At the moment there are seven extensions available, I installed four of them that I thought could be useful in my workflow. These are Noiseless Ai, Upscale Ai, Supersharp Ai and Magic Light Ai.  Until I was asked to try Luminar Neo, I had not heard of the program, but the opportunity to partner with Skylum and make some additional money convinced me to take a look.

at the check out.



I have applied two of the textures on the following image. Please move your mouse over the image to see a before/after effect. Please check out the screenshot of the PS layers for more information.




   





To lessen the effect of the silver blue texture on the light misty part, I have applied a layer mask and 
painted with a soft brush at 50% opacity until I was satisfied with the result. To achieve the grunge texture effect in the dark parts I used the second texture in blend mode Luminosity, that way I got the structure without altering the tones of the image. 
Finally I had to correct the contrast with a Curves layer.

Hope you enjoy summer, my textures and your day. 
If you have any questions please contact me!
