Tutorial - Exposure Blending in Photoshop

A few weeks ago I wrote an article about some basic photo editing techniques including luminosity masks and exposure blending.

Today I share a video tutorial with you, which is a little more advanced. It's a tutorial about exposure blending, in which I work on a photo taken on beautiful Anse Cocos on the Seychelles.

For this photo I had to deal with the sun in the frame, so I needed multiple exposures for dynamic range. But I also applied focus stacking to get everything sharp in the frame from foreground to background.

As you can see in the video it wasn't too hard to put the pieces together. Knowing the basic techniques is key. Then it just takes some practise to know, which technique to apply when.

And if you are interested in how I edit photos like this here, you can check my post processing tutorials. There I show my complete workflow in all its detail.
