While I don’t generally replace skies, I do take low-ISO night or “blue hour” twilight photos of the foreground, then take successive “stacked” photos of the night sky, and then blend them together. One of the most anticipated features in Photoshop is their AI-powered Sky Replacement. Adding your creativity to an image can now be done with just one click.Īs is the case with all the editing features in this Luminar 4, it is all non-destructive to the original image.Recently, in conjunction with the October 2020 Adobe MAX Creativity Conference, Adobe released the eagerly awaited version of Photoshop version 22.0, which comes with quite a few new features, many of which are powered by AI. We have been testing the AI Augmented Sky tool over the last couple of weeks and it really is impressive. Not only can you use the application for regular editing and processing, but it also has many other great creative tools such as AI Sky Replacement and for portrait photographers, AI Skin Enhancer and Portrait Enhancer. If you are not sure how to start doing composites then Skylum’s Luminar 4 may be the software you need.

It basically works the same way as the AI Sky Replacement tool, however, instead of just replacing skies, AI Augmented Sky gives you the opportunity to add backgrounds such as lightning, stars, rainbows etc.

Skylum’s AI Augmented Sky does all the heavy lifting for you if you want to create a composite. They can involve using multiple layers and masking which can be time-consuming. The beauty is that there are no rules.Ĭomposites can be quite complex to create and are usually best created in software such as Adobe Photoshop. You can let your imagination run wild or just keep it simple.

This new feature is designed for those that want to be a bit more creative with their images by creating composites. The new addition of AI Augmented Sky may not be everyone’s cup of tea.
