Compositing and Layers Masterclass in Luminar NEO - Create the Extraordinary

Get Luminar NEO with discount code ATNEO here: https://bit.ly/Luminar-NEO In this tutorial let's look at how to use layers to composite photos together. We'll be covering a lot, including how to bring in new elements to combine them into your original photo, techniques for masking in Luminar Neo such as gradients, the brush tool and MaskAI. We'll colorize elements of the photo and I'll also show you how to get Luminar back up to speed if things start to get a bit laggy.

I started the photo (which was shot at ISO 6400) by running it through Luminar Neo's Noiseless extension.
