In this video I show you how I use Adobe Lightroom’s Graduated filter and Radial filter to not just darken the sky or lighten the foreground, but also to bring out certain colors in a creative way. I hope it is helpful to you!
Topics covered:
• Making just the sky darker
• Making just the foreground brighter
• Quick way to straighten a photo
• Adding color to certain parts of a photo
Download Adobe Lightroom here.
If you don’t have Lightroom you can still achieve the first effect by downloading an app on the app store called Vignettr.

After traveling, he compiled over 140 gigs of video footage and created this beautiful aerial montage of Dolomites, Rome; Civita di Bagnoregio, Italy; Kalyazin, Russia; Fort Williams, Scotland and Isle of Skye, Moscow.

He comes from a film background where he worked with a CG company for 8 years doing computer graphics for motion pictures, TV shows and commercials. When he is not droning, he likes to travel and design websites and mobile apps. Be sure to check out the short interview with him after the jump. Read More
