Select sky
Select sky is an AI mask in Lightroom that automatically selects the sky in your photo. In one click you get an accurate mask around the sky, even along tricky edges like trees and rooftops. That way you edit the sky separately from the rest of the image.
Perfect for giving a flat sky depth and colour back without affecting the foreground. Minus exposure and a touch of dehaze quickly make a white sky bluer and more dramatic. With a bright sunset you can boost the warm tones instead. Tip: soften the mask slightly at the horizon with an inverted gradient, so the transition to the foreground stays natural.
