Five Landscape Photo Editing Steps with DxO PhotoLab 10

Photographer Ian Worth outlines five crucial editing steps for landscape photography using DxO PhotoLab 10. He begins with noise reduction and creative cropping, treating the latter as a compositional tool. Worth emphasizes local adjustments over global ones, utilizing depth masks to isolate specific planes within the scene, a technique becoming more prevalent in editing software. He also incorporates cinematic color grading for subtle contrast and uses retouch tools for cleanup. The workflow is enhanced by seamless integration with Affinity for advanced tasks like focus stacking, with PhotoLab 10 noted as a one-time purchase.
