Black and White with Silver Efex

Very nice - good explanations and great music - thanks!
As a digression, after watching your previous video on sharpening, I went back and compared my sharpening results using both Topaz AI and Nik 7 sharpen output. To my eyes, the Nik7 results were better. There is certainly more fine control with the sharpening using Nik 7.

Hi Chris. I’m following all of these videos with interest. It’s great to see the versatility and potential of PL7/Nik … thanks for the informative and well demonstrated tutorials!

Chris, have only just bought Nik 7 after thinking about it for years but just never got around to it till now. Sadly for me getting 7 means l miss out on 'Perspective' (View Point) which was with 6 but removed from 7. I do realise l can get it as a stand-alone 'extra' but l'm not interested in buying it separately especially when you consider it was included in a complete bundle only a few weeks ago. Any thoughts about being able to get it separately (in a Nik 6 maybe) as opposed to having to fork out the $79 while it's on the 20th anniversary sale (back to $99 in a day or so). Oh, and that's US dollars, for me in Australia that around $125 or when the price goes back to normal, the $99 means around $150+.

Thank you again, Chris, for always giving us your beautiful photography knowledge. You are a very kind ❤🎉❤🎉

I don't see how processing is in any way different from doing it in any RAW editor that has layers as a function...

Hello world. May I ask the following? If I use DxO raw and then export (I feel its import) into DxO photolab7 to do detailed work, do I need to assign the
General > Correction settings > 6? No correction for RAW images, as well as checking the Automatically use superRAW noise reduction for DxO ONE Super RAW images and uncheck Automatically use Camera rendering if supported. I may have overegged the above question and made the simple comlicated. What I am asking is If the corrections are already done in Raw, do you need to turn them off in Photolab 7 to prevent them from doubling up? I hope that that is clear. Thank you to anyone who may respond.

That was fun! The last one is my favorite too!

Amazing! I followed step by step on every part of your video ❤ I like your light touch to editing very much and it’s taught me to dial things back
