In light of the newest HDR Concert, I figured it would be a good idea to bring back an old Compositing tutorial that is relevant to the Concert. Compositing photos is a lot easier than you think, it just takes a bit of knowledge of Photoshop and some selection tools...

I just finished recording a snippet of the training I am putting together for the Beginning Photography Course for LearnPhotoNow. It occurred to me that I have never done anything quite like this for EverydayHDR, but I probably should have! This tutorial is all...

I often speak of the importance of the RAW file format on EverydayHDR and just how important it is for your HDR images. However, it occurred to me that I did not have a RAW image video discussing not only how to process a RAW image in ACR, but more importantly, how...

On August 2nd I will be showing my work for the first time in over 4 years! I am a bit timid and excited all at the same time. However, I am more prepared this time than I ever was the last time! I had a horrible experience at the gallery where I showed my work in...

I know what you are thinking… “the Clone Stamp Tool, really Blake? Are you insulting my intelligence?” Absolutely not! I would never do such a thing! However, knowing the Clone Stamp Tool and using it effectively are 2 different things altogether....

I have used this window technique quite a few times in the past few months. I used it on the last HDR Concert and on HDR Concert#7. It can be pretty tricky to add glass to an image where there once was none. However, all you need is a push in the right direction...

I have created several black and white tutorials in the past. Two of my favorite are the written tutorial and the video tutorial. While I could leave it with just those two, I am a fan of continuous improvement and finding a better more efficient way to do...

Image Size is not a fun thing to talk about. It is really kind of boring in my opinion. When I think Photoshop, I think awesome fun photo blasting excitement, not math and image constraints… However, it is an unfortunate beast that must be tamed especially for...
