Photoshop Tutorial: Create an Extreme Depth of Field using Focus Stacking in Photoshop
Photoshop Tutorial: Create an Extreme Depth of Field using Focus Stacking in Photoshop.
Professional Photographer & Adobe Certified Lightroom & Photoshop Expert Geoff Cable of the GC2 Photo Club demonstrates how to create an image, particularly a landscape image, which appears to be fully in focus from the foreground through to the distant background.
Landscape photography specifically benefits from this technique. You can manipulate only so much depth of field using the settings on your camera, however by combining multiple photographs taken from the same place but focusing on different points from foreground to distance in photoshop you can create the effect of all areas being in pin sharp focus.
Follow the tutorial and take a range of two or more images, depending on the image, and see what effects you can create. Be adventurous and use extreme and mild adjustments.
It is essential to minimize post-shoot editing time, especially if you're a professional trying to make a profit. The less time you spend in your digital darkroom the more time you can spend on other money-making tasks.
It's amazing how many photographers we've met that only know the basic tools, processes and add-ons available for Adobe Lightroom. If you only know a small part of the software package you're using then you are not utilizing your investment to its maximum potential.
Here at GC2 Photo Club we like to introduce you to the little tips, tricks and workarounds that help you make the most from your Lightroom and Photoshop software, giving you the tools to make informed decisions regarding your post-shoot workflow.
Any tip or trick that introduces time-saving techniques without compromising quality is a great thing for the professional photographer and the hobby photographer alike.
