    This lengthy video tutorial features the largest download I’ve ever produced. This one is better for people who are a little bit familiar with Photoshop. By no means do you need to be an expert, but knowing what the Layers Palette is and how you select the Brush tool are highly recommended. Everything else will be explained by demonstration.

    • PSB-file (resized) of all three levels left in the layers palette with every adjustment still present. That’s a BIG file. Please be patient when you open that in Photoshop.
    • All raw files.
    • Intermediate TIFF files, so you don’t have to stack them yourself (although I recommend you follow along anyway).
    • Read-me file with specific nightscape photography tips and links to additional tools such as TK Actions and the last sharpening tool you will ever need.
    • Sound included! Professional English narration by a native speaker.
    • Fully subtitled.
    What Will I Learn?
    1. Raw conversion to preserve detail in the shadows.
    2. Focus stacking the foreground.
    3. Twilight blending to get a highly detailed foreground.
    4. Stacking in the field and pre-processing stacked images in Sequator (free, PC). StarryLandscapeStacker also available with a similar workflow on Mac.
    5. Using a tracking mount on your tripod to lengthen the shutter speed beyond 30 seconds.
    6. Post-processing the most noise-free image of the Milky Way.
    7. Split raw processing to add color, detail and highlights all while keeping the noise down.
    8. Making selections based on light and color (luminosity masking and hue masking).
    9. Creating a moody atmosphere.
    10. Light effects such as star color dodging, Orton and Light Bleed (a different method than in all my other videos).
    11. Getting rid of halos due to poor processing.
    12. Color grading and luminosity matching (Making the foreground and background sit well together).
    13. Dodging, sharpening… Really everything that I know about nightscape post-processing.

    Winrar 6 used for packaging (3% recovery info included in rar package).

    Just re-downloaded the file successfully. So not sure what the issue is on your side.
