Although already using luminosity masks, this tutorial gave me many more information. Working with PS same results can be achieved in different way through different instruments, so there is always space for more learning. In the case of this course, money were well spent. The teacher is clear and lessons are well balanced to give the starting information at the beginning and examples at the end

Excellent and comprehensive course on the application of luminosity masks. Thanks for providing the actions. My only suggestion to improve the course is to provide your photos as a resource so that we can work in photoshop along with you.

I personally felt this course is little lengthy than it is actually required, did not talk about any luminosity adjustment panel used by the professionals to speed up the process, expected more prominent examples. Overall, the course was up to the mark. Language and voice quality was good and explained precisely everything about luminosity masks.

The instructor is very knowledgeable. I learn a lot and definitely have to watch this course a second time. There are so many details. I somehow love the way the course is presented. It's like a patient big brother is showing me how it works. It may sound strange, but I even like the fact the mistakes are not edited out. It learns me making mistakes happens even when you are good at what you do and how to correct them.

I enjoyed this course very much. The pace was good for me as concepts were explained and demonstrated. Daniel's critique of the demonstration images helped me analyze my own images and understand where to use luminosity masks. Through this course I can now create and modify my own luminosity masks easily and enhance my images at the targeted points. I've been using the luminosity masking technique mostly on still life and flower images which better results tha before the training. A valued course.

Bin sehr zufrieden, obwohl ich mich schon länger damit beschäftige. Es gibt doch in jedem Kurs immer wieder Details, die erhellend sind, die mein Verständnis vertiefen...

OK so far. As I have never used Lumosity masks or Photoshop, I have repeated the first video to make sure I follow what is being said. Now halfway. I admit to being left in his dust...alot. But I know I will frequently revisit these videos until I gain better insight into his thought process. I am taking this class to stretch my understanding not just improve what I am already working on. After finishing the course, I found that I learned alot more than I envisioned at the onset. An excellent course and the instructor is well paced and has interesting insights as to why he is doing things in a certain order.
