Every time I watch your tutorials, I learn something new. I feel like Capture One should hire you!

[frankmirado]

What a great tip with for the vignetting. Thank you! I learned a lot from this video.

Brilliant videos, your content is what I have been looking for, for three years! I have only just found you but you appeared to have stopped making videos, such a shame. However thank you so much!

Having just discovered you on YouTube I must say I am learning loads from your work and best of all its with Capture one which I have recently changed over to, Anyway thank you for your hard work and you will always get a thumbs up from me

I think it's great that you keep presenting your artistic thought process when going through each editing step, and that you discuss in quite a detailed way how you will be seeking to achieve the desired effects with particular C1 functionalities :). Thank you!

Outstanding. Explained with clarity as always and new techniques to learn.

I thoroughly enjoy your videos. I'm learning not only a lot about the power of Capture One, but also, and even more importantly for me, how you envision an image and use post processing to realize the vision. You seem to know exactly what you're looking for and how to achieve it. It's exciting to see how you take seemingly mundane landscape shots and turn them into artistic successes. So many landscape photographers seem stuck on highly saturated golden hour images of iconic scenes that have been, frankly, in one form or another, done many times before. I am keenly interested in comparisons you make between your images and Japanese prints. I'd like to learn more about how to incorporate these values into my photography.

Never thought to use the contrast tool in a vignette. I'll have to try that. Thanks.

Great tips! I do forest photography and am always at a loss as to 'busy' photos that I still love. Love the vignetting tip! Keep them coming, and thanks!

For me too working with 50mm or higher focal length in woodland can simplify the chaos. Color grading is also helpful. The Matte effect i have to experiment with.

Hi, Kasia. Congratulations for your videos. They are very interesting. At ancient Rome, there was a Senator (The old Caton), that finished all his discurses, without interesting what was he talking about, telling: "Cartago must be distroyed". I'll do the same. When a course about color palette?

[richonguzman]

I the matte trick/curve

maybe I would use this in my B/W edits also ;)

All tips were great, but I especially like your subtle vignette. Two questions:

Is the saturation slider in the color tool the same as the one in exposure?

Any reason why you treated the blown highlights with the highlights slider instead of the whites slider?

Today is Thanksgiving in my country and I am especially grateful for you.

When using a radial mask to produce a vignette do you also use the lens corrections when images were shot with wider apertures f2.5 (but not wide open). I am never sure if I prefer to apply lens corrections then vignette or embrace the character of the lens and work from there.

A new video idea: do you ever use the keystone tool with the guides NOT parallel to each other to straighten a picture when just using Rotate would cut off something necessary close to a side? I’ve tried this and it’s great but would like to understand it better
