We’ll teach the finer points of tracking, focusing, exposure, and composition.- I thought we made pretty good headway on this image when we added our gradient mask to the sky. You’ll learn how to photograph swift eagles in flight or feeding humpbacks. We’ll have image reviews, and you will learn new techniques for post-processing in Lightroom. We will work with you to make compelling compositions of the wildlife and the landscape it inhabits. You will learn and hone wildlife photography skills, easily capturing fast and slow-moving animals.

I paid for my version of this software, but I may receive compensation for products purchased from links on my website. The downside is that I don’t think I would use the same background on more than one image, so you’ll either need to buy more from Skylum or shoot them for your self. Lastly, there are lots of sky images to use with the app, which is excellent. I don’t even show these manipulated images on the same part of my website as photographs. I write disclaimers about what I did to make that particular piece of photo art.

It becomes art and, for me, is no longer a photograph.

The other thing is that I have real heartburn about this kind of digital manipulation. When it works, it is a fantastic tool and a worthwhile time saver. It’s a great tool to have in your editing arsenal.
