In the video below, Julieanne demonstrates how to use Adobe Camera Raw’s new Select Landscape masking tools to automatically select different regions in photographs including sky, mountains, water, architecture, vegetation, natural ground, and artificial ground.
Use this link to download the LandscapeMasking.zip adaptive preset. The preset will add the seven regional masks based on the contents of you image so that you can quickly make adjustments.
Note: if you have your browser preferences set to unzip downloaded files automatically, you can import the unzipped LandscapeSelect.xmp file from within Camera Raw the same way as I imported the .zip file in the video.
