Thank you @Nikon4life

 

Thanks a lot

 

Thank you.

 

thanks to you

 

any better Res? @Nikon4life , ty

 

Sorry - but no - that's an old one; not sure if even subscribers have access to better quality (but probably . . . ) . . .

 

yes ...if you look at free lesson (first one) it's in HD

 

Maybe someone has it in better Res - I got this when still using CS4 . . . nevertheless - the info is still worthy of the ticket-price . . .

 

Please like the OP

I have watched the first video in these two series, Color Strategies and Color Tools. He seems to be promoting the use of the HSL color space. I don't want to jump to conclusions and dismiss this, but I also want to use my time wisely.

For those of you who have already gone through these videos (such as @Nikon4life ), how useful have you found them?

I was initially intrigued, but the Wikipedia page on HSL/HSV lists some significant disadvantages:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSL_and_HSV#Disadvantages

What have your real-world experiences with HSL been? (Or have I missed the point about this video series?)

I think it's worth watching - you might be overthinking the whole color-space topic. One should always take into consideration what the end-product medium / media will be (meaning: are you gonna make a print; view on the web; etc - - - and also remember few individuals have uber-performing monitors). Although there are those that prefer to pixel-peep rather than actually create images . . .

Almost ("almost") everything I've ever watched has provided some tidbit that I've used for my particular shooting style (or something I can use for a future project perhaps). I keep a moleskine journal (several) where I maintain notes specific to chosen topic(s) . . . it's become central to my fading memory (especial if time-saving is of concern) . . .

 

OK. Those are fair points. I'll watch these and experiment. I'll probably learn something from it, even if I ultimately prefer something else.

 

I never heard of the HSL color space, and he doesn't really go into much detail about what it is, or why and how you use it. Apart from the first video, he doesn't mention it again. He does however go through all the COLOR related tools in Photoshop, one per video, so it is a good education in playing with color.

He's using Ps CS4 btw. It's quite a dry and detailed series, but he does give you a good understanding of all the color-related tools, and he is a master of delicate colors

Hey @Peeved, I love the HSL sliders, use them all the time. You can make beautiful subtle adjustments here.

Phew! Way above my head

Have to agree with @Nikon4life

The HSL sliders are great for fine-tuning colors and effects, well worth learning about

The LAB Mode sounds similar to the HSL color space, and I love this YT video by Charlie Cramer, it's part of a Luminous Landscape series on Master Printers, Charlie Cramer

Edit:I posted a thread on the Cramer series https://p-v.club/threads/luminous-landscape-charlie-cramer-master-printer.44419/

 

I haven't gotten around to watching this yet. It does sound like I can extract some wisdom from it.

I've read the technical stuff about Lab mode. Doesn't scare me. You don't need to know the technical stuff. You just have to understand what you are manipulating. You already know that.

Thanks for that!
