Photoshop Side Light Editing Tutorial

With Max Rive's Photoshop Side Light Editing Tutorial, you can create an incredible light effect called side light into your landscapes. This side light is visible when the sun is outside the frame, but still hits the lens, creating a faded haze. The intensity of this faded haze is often pretty low on your camera lens, and it can also create unwanted sun flares. As a result, we use Lens hoods or block the sun with our hands, to have the cleanest and sharpest photo without this side light. When this light is added in post, with Max's editing technique, it looks both clean and it adds the mood and drama of the side light. This side light makes the image also more dynamic, and it connects with the main subject in the photo - in this case, the tree.
