lightroom’s masking tools have recently gotten a hell of a lot better. it’s a proper good implementation of modern ai. it’s scary how well it will mask people now. you can even select by section, so like “teeth” “face” “clothes” etc. it will also separate them by person. for this one i just used the ai quick select on the sky and it worked perfectly. the barn on the other hand i just did a soft edge brush. the new ai Denoise also feels like magic. it straight up made me reconsider what i think of as a usable iso on my camera.
