Masters Academy

Triple Processed RAW

In this lesson, you’ll learn how processing a raw file multiple times and masking the results into a single composite image can allow you to save otherwise unusable images. In the process, you’ll learn how to transfer multiple raw settings from ACR or Lightroom to Photoshop and how Smart Objects make the process easy.

The raw image is included as a downloadable file so you can practice the technique. Please post your results and discuss your process and success or frustration in the Masters Forum Facebook group.

Note: The downloadable practice file for this lesson has been compressed into a .zip archive. Double-click on the file to extract its contents before attempting to use the file in Photoshop or Lightroom.
