Skylum's Luminar AI is a great solution for both professional and
amateur photographers who want to quickly create stunning photos.
Luminar's advanced AI-based tools eliminate hours of traditional
editing tasks, whether you're applying automatic tone and color
adjustments, replacing dreary skies with more dynamic ones, or
retouching portraits to smooth skin, remove blemishes, and
accentuate flattering facial features. For those who want to dig
into editing, powerful tools give you full control over your RAW
and JPEG images, including advanced features such as masks, blend
modes, and lens correction. Luminar AI also works as a plug-in for
other applications, such as Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom Classic, and
Apple Photos, allowing round-trip editing and seamless integration
with workflows you may already have in place. Luminar AI is
deceptively deep, and in The Photographer's Guide to Luminar AI,
photographer Jeff Carlson helps you discover Luminar AI's best
features to take full advantage of the program for all your
photography needs. From importing your images to editing, managing,
and exporting your files, Jeff showcases the power, precision, and
control of Luminar while teaching you to work quickly and
efficiently. In this book, he walks you through real-world
landscape and portrait edits, and covers every tool and feature
with the goal of helping you understand how to make Luminar improve
your images. In this book you'll learn all about: - AI editing:
Luminar AI's many AI-based tools eliminate hours of traditional
editing tasks. Improve overall tone and color using just one
slider, and enhance a sky using another without building masks or
layers. Realistically replace the entire sky in one step, even when
objects like buildings or trees intrude. Luminar identifies faces
in photos, allowing you to smooth skin, sharpen eyes, brighten
faces, and perform other portrait retouching tasks in minutes. -
Expert editing: Take advantage of Luminar's many professional tools
to bring out the best versions of your photos. Enhance the look
using tone controls and curves, dodging and burning, and tools
built for specific types of images, such as Landscape Enhancer,
Adjustable Gradient, and B & W Conversion. The Erase and Clone
& Stamp tools make it easy to remove unexpected objects and
glitches such as lens dust spots. Luminar's RAW editing engine
includes real-time noise reduction and advanced color processing
and sharpening tools, all completely non-destructive and with the
ability to step back through the history of edits. - Advanced

edits and effects. - Creativity: Open your imagination with

folders such as Dropbox or Google Drive for remote backup. -

your library or for photo editing, such as Adobe Photoshop or
Lightroom Classic, Luminar AI also works as a plug-in that allows
round-trip editing and seamless integration with the workflows you
may already have in place. - Sharing images: Whether you're
