Very cool! Thanks for the details. It's fun to hear about others' workflows. Good call to underexpose it. A lot of the videos I've watched, they will bracket exposures and treat them separately.. but honestly I've found if I shoot raw I don't need to most of the time. Is LR pretty good at masking? I left the Adobe suite a few years ago and have been on Affinity Photo (basically the same as PS). I use a lot of luminosity masks, which I don't remember if LR has some "smart" way to do that (e.g. "select all the bright stuff"). Anyway.. nice work!
lightroom's masking tools have recently gotten a hell of a lot better. it's a proper good implementation of modern ai. it's scary how well it will mask people now. you can even select by section, so like "teeth" "face" "clothes" etc. it will also separate them by person. for this one i just used the ai quick select on the sky and it worked perfectly. the barn on the other hand i just did a soft edge brush. the new ai Denoise also feels like magic. it straight up made me reconsider what i think of as a usable iso on my camera.
