I DID IT 🌳 I used my DRONE to photograph this INCREDIBLE Lone Tree (Settings + Editing)

Using a Drone for Photography is FANTASTIC! So many new and unique compositions!

In this video I finally photograph an incredible tree that would have been impossible to do on foot BUT thanks to my Drone it became possible! I go through the Drone Camera settings and then dive into Lightroom to create a HDR and finally into Photoshop and jump in and out of Topaz Studio 2 to create a painterly effect.

Hope you enjoy it

💥 DO THIS in Lightroom to make your PORTRAITS POP and come to life

Ever since I shared a video showing my 20/10 technique in Photoshop for making Portraits POP, I’ve received a constant flow of questions asking if there was a way to get the same result just using Photoshop.

Well … I had a play and this is what I came up with, and to be honest … I think I prefer it now :)

During the intro I also explain about those 4 layers you will have seen in the original video as I’ve had quite a few questions about them asking if they’re part of the technique
