If You’re Not Using Intersect in Lightroom, You’re Missing Out
Lightroom masking became dramatically more powerful when Adobe introduced Intersect. Yet many photographers still overlook it. In this tutorial, I break down exactly how Intersect works and why it can make your masking workflow dramatically easier. First, I explain the concept using a simple color grid so you can clearly see how multiple intersects refine a selection. By combining a luminance range, a color range, and a brush intersect, you can create an incredibly precise adjustment that targets exactly what you want. Then we take the technique into the real world. I’ll apply the method to a winter landscape scene to selectively add warmth to leafless trees along a snow-covered ridge. Once you understand how Intersect works, you’ll start using it everywhere in your Lightroom workflow. If you’re not using Intersect yet, you may be making masking much harder than it needs to be. 📷 Lightroom or Lightroom Classic compatible If you wish to support the channel monetarily, visit https://scottdavenportphoto.com/support Subscribe and share!
