Okay guys, so in this lesson, I will present you my basic Lightroom landscape workflow. And I will show you incomplete editing of this and edit just raw file. And this will be the final image. So a big change and let's go over Okay, um, I already imported the three RAW files, because I shot right into the sun and when you should write into the sun, there's always the problem with the dynamic range. Because you have really the sky in this image is nearly blown burn out. So you can do this and we don't have much details in the sky here.

And Roxy in the front already really dark. So that's always the problem the dock, the dock to dock and the brights are too bright. And when you have such a problem, you just can make an example make an HDR image so I am in the camera as elected bracketing. And I made three images. So a normal exposure that was this one, this one Yeah, sorry, an underexposed image two steps underexposed, and an overexposed image. So, in this image, for example, I have all the details here and the rocks so you can see here is nothing completely black.

He has everything but this guy is we can reduce the sky in this image because it's just burned out. In this image, we have perfectly all details in the sky, so that's fine, but we don't see anything of the rocks. And this is just the middle between the buff so now we want to make an HDR out of the these three RAW files. And you can do this by just selecting all the three RAW files in Lightroom and then make a right click and go to photo match an HDR And now Lightroom creates an HDR preview for us so we can also see it in preview. This takes some time. Okay, here we are, here's the preview of the HDR image down here is vignetting.

But we don't care about this because Lightroom will use an automatic profile to remove these meetings. Oh, it's just here in the preview. But no problem. We just keep all that settings as they are. And we then finally click merge. And then again, it takes some time.

Okay, then Lightroom created the HDR file. And now I lost this function in Lightroom to create a an HDR, because now all the information of these three single RAW files are now packed into this one. Big file and it's still and we have still all the information we can set the white balance, we can do everything like just it would be a normal RAW file, but with all the information. So at the first glance it looks exactly the same like on the first image. But it's, as I said, contains all the information of these three sites.
