Hi,
Could someone please do a step by step on selecting sky and not branches and leaves of trees and grasses on an embankment etc.
Sky sounds good until it doesnt get the parts between branches leave and doesnt exclude tall grasses and weedy plants etc on an embankment etc.
I am sure I am not the only one who when having to brush over these bits with a less than wonderful choice of brush sizes at the small end of the choice, is thinking this isnt right. both on brush choice and having to do so at all.
Here is mask 1 filter sky and as you can see its not great at the bushes, then create mask 2 luminance and click sky near a bush, better, but how do I then combine the two, I see no means of doing so, dead easy in pshop but raw seems useless at selections and masks compared to what one can do in channels.
Am I missing something, I wish to combine the best of these and get a decent sky selection.
How is that then done ?
