Photo Editing  •  Photography Tips

If you feel like your landscape photo needs a little something to be a true masterpiece, try giving it a beautiful new sky or enhancing the existing sky. How? With these tools in Luminar 4:

AI Sky Replacement

Luminar’s AI Sky Replacement takes photo art to the next level by automatically detecting the horizon, the orientation of the sky, and objects in a photo. Use AI Sky Replacement to create a beautifully enhanced photo in minutes.

Luminar’s innovative machine learning-based technology removes image imperfections such as halos, artifacts, and edges of transition, making sky replacements seamless and natural.

Sunrays tool

Enhance the sun or add a whole new light source to your photo using the powerful Sunrays tool. It lets you control the position, warmth, radius, and amount of glow for a subtle addition or dramatic change in lighting.

AI Sky Enhancer

Give your sky depth and definition in seconds. AI Sky Enhancer takes away unnecessary manual editing steps and allows you to get beautiful images almost instantly — with only a swipe of a single slider! It does this by intelligently detecting the sky and applying an invisible mask to the sky that enhances it.

AI Augmented Sky

Don’t hold yourself back. Let your imagination flow with the brand-new AI Augmented Sky tool. It easily detects the sky and seamlessly adds new elements to it, resulting in realistically enhanced photos. Thanks to content-aware technologies, complex foreground objects such as buildings and trees are taken into account automatically, making objects blend naturally with the sky and avoiding the need for masking or layers. You can add objects to your photos from the Luminar database or use your own.

Sky replacement tip

Make replacement even smoother with Scene Relight technology (you can find it inside AI Sky Replacement tool). Scene Relight guarantees that the light and color of an image and sky match. This is how Luminar is able to make sky changes look as natural and realistic as possible.

All these tools make creating stunning skies in your photos so much simpler. Give them a try and let us know how it goes!
