Color correction
Color is an important factor in creating an artwork. Aiming to have life-like colors on a photo is not always the correct answer. Color itself has a great influence on the perception of the image. The color of the same scene might be different, even scenery shot in the same place but in different seasons, that difference will change the mood of an image. Let's learn how to freely express colors and moods using LuminarAI.

Editing for landscape photography

On your photo should be present all what you felt with your five senses during the time of shooting.
