This makes it so you can quickly and easily adjust the edge of a mask a couple pixels at a time. What this tool does is allows you to brush over the edge of a mask and remove or add to that mask by a defined number of pixels. The first tool I’ll use to fine tune this is the chisel tool.
As you can see above, in this example we are most of the way, but we have some fine tuning to do. This setting makes it so the brush can distinguish between different colors and edges so that I can quickly mask out a subject.Īlthough the perfect brush can give you perfect results, it’s generally meant to get you most of the way. The important step here is that I’m going to turn on the perfect brush setting. The first tool I’m going to use is the masking brush. This is where I have access to all the masking tools. I simply select both files and click into the layers panel. The great thing about ON1 Photo RAW is that I don't need another program to do this. Now that I have the two images I want to work with, I now need to combine them using layer masks. I also warmed up the color temp quite a bit in an effort to mimic the light you would get from a more direct sunset light. For the second version, I bumped up my exposure so that the light was what I wanted on the model. For one version I dropped my exposure so that I could get the darkness of the sky to where I wanted. From here, I created two different versions of the same image. Because of this, the image straight out of the camera is far from impressive.Īfter bringing the image into ON1 Photo RAW, I applied my base preset. So what I did was expose for the scene in an effort to maximize my dynamic range. The sun was setting so the model still had some light on her, but not enough light to give me the drama I was looking for. To start, this image was shot at Red Rocks in Las Vegas during WPPI.
In an effort to explain all the various tools that ON1 Photo RAW has to offer in terms of masking, I thought it would be good to just walk through a specific image where I used all the tools. With ON1 Photo RAW, this process has become so much simpler. Since the beginning of my adventure into photography, Photoshop has been the go-to tool for cutting out a subject and creating complex masks.
