A building in SOMA, San Francisco. This was all done in Lightroom Classic 12.2.1 with its excellent masking tools. Before v. 12 you had to use Photoshop to do this.

This image was taken at the Taiwan’s Cheng long Elementary School pond in 2013. I’ve recently taken an online course from Piet Van den Enyde entitled Ultimate Lightroom Masking. The knowledge from this course has allowed me to use a combination of masks to rework this image.
