Add another dimension to the possibilities of Luminar 4

Luminar 4 has a wide range of pre-designed Looks you can apply to your photo with a single mouse click. Each of these is made by combining individual filters you can modify, add to or remove at will. It’s a wonderfully flexible way of creating and customising an almost limitless array of effects. It doesn’t stop there. Luminar also supports layers - and not just Adjustment Layers for combining effects, but actual image layers, for creating multiple exposures and composite images.

Layers and Looks are powerful on their own, but they can work together to offer even more possibilities. For example, you might think you can only apply a Luminar filter to an image once… but if you create an Adjustment Layer on top of the original image, you can use the filter again to double its effect.

Adjustment Layers also let you combine different Looks. Normally, you might choose a single Look for your image and modify it to suit your tastes - but you can add another Look with a new Adjustment Layer and blend it with the first, either using a different Blending Mode, changing its opacity or using a mask.

Masks are where the real fun begins! Luminar offers Brush, Radial and Gradient Masks, which together provide a set of simple and efficient tools for blending images and adjustments together.
