Jeepness by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: While in the parking area of the Little Calumet River Trailhead in Indiana Dunes National Park with a view looking to the south over and then above a rental Jeep Wrangler I driving on a recent trip visiting New River Gorge and Indiana Dunes National Parks. I got the idea for this from an image on Flickr (www.flickr.com/photos/oybay/48931723678/in/pool-dslr_auto...). The idea was to look from either behind or to the front of a vehicle and have blue skies and clouds above. Well, the day was overcast, so that wasn?t an option. It was as I began working on the image in post production that I then decided to once again try out the sky replacement setting in Photoshop with this image. The sunset colors with the clouds definitely seemed appropriate for this national park setting in what I had wanted to experience in person. So the skies are part of the Adobe stock images in Photoshop but all else is captured with my Nikon D850 SLR camera. I later worked with control points in DxO PhotoLab 4 and then made some adjustments to bring out the contrast, saturation and brightness I wanted for the final image.

I have a simple trick to improve the quality of sky replacements for silhouetted trees.

The Problem

Complex details like small tree branches are challenging for sky swaps. Sky Swap AI does an admirable job to detect these types of objects. Yet the masks tend to taper off toward more clustered branches, leaving the tone and color of the original sky more prominent. Depending on the replacement sky you are using, the difference can be obvious and unpleasing. In this example, the softer pale cyan sky is obviously not the same tone as the rich blue of the replacement sky.

The Solution

After using Sky Swap AI in ON1 Photo RAW, open the masking area and work with the Levels controls. Adjust the middle control point of Levels toward the left. The middle point changes the transition point from shadow to highlight. I like to work visually with the grayscale mask view turned on.

With a quick adjustment of the middle control of this slider, you’ll get a crisper mask and a more pleasing sky replacement result.

the concept of hate-art or whatever it's called is so funny. like, drawing someone's OCs experiencing atrocities to try and intentionally upset them. you're still drawing their OC though? like if someone drew one of my OCs being impaled by a big pole falling from the sky i'd probably just jerk off to it idk

On a scale of 1-10, how tragic is it to be greeted by the sight of your family having the time of their life with your perceived Replacement after you just crawled your way out of hell trying to get back to them?

Danny meets Jason and wants to help him of his pit rage but in order to do that, Danny needed to go through the infinite realms to find someone to be able to safely replace the pit rage into something more calming than the Lazarus Pits and that's where Danny and Jason comes in to go to the Ghost Zone and had Frostbite to be the guide to get to the realm of stars.

Where every "kids" has multiple "souls" inside them and can give it to another as they wish to.

It helps when these "kids" can just die whenever they want and get reincarnated to get stronger. It's like an every week ritual.

Jason and Danny are just baffled that beings like them existed.

Puffy Clouds Float by on a Monday Afternoon in West Texas by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: A view looking up and to the southeast at a fuel station in Sonora, Texas, while driving out to Big Bend National Park. The skies that afternoon with clouds and wisps were captivating. I also wanted to capture some of these sky settings to use the Photoshop Sky Replacement tool with other images.

Which Sky Swap AI Model In Best? ON1 Photo RAW

ON1 Photo RAW 2023 now has two AI models for Sky Swap AI - the generically named Model A and Model B. Is one better than the other? Like most things in photography … it depends.

My advice is simple.

The default for Sky Swap AI is Model A. By definition, you’ll use it when you first open the Sky Swap AI tab. In the majority of cases, Model A works fine. If the sky replacement is too aggressive, encroaching into non-sky elements, try Model B. Yeah … like I said … simple.

There are certain situations where Model B is a clear winner. In general terms, Model B works better when the sky being replaced has a similar color and tone to non-sky elements. Consider this example of a washed-out gray sky against bright, semi-washed-out blue-gray buildings. Model A is incredibly aggressive, gobbling up quite a lot of the buildings. Model B is more tempered, bleeding into the buildings much less. Model B is a clear winner, and leaves less cleanup work to do.
