Lightroom’s Auto Mask Brush Saves Your Edge

In Lightroom 4, there is a featured called auto mask.  It can be found when utilizing the brush tool.

The auto mask brush enables you to make local adjustments to your photographs without disrupting the background.

My friend Jeff Revell showed the feature off a while back in his article on local adjustments in Lightroom 4.  But I thought I would create a video so you can see it in action.

Have you be utilizing the auto mask tool?

Will you now?

Comment below and share a link to a photograph that you have published where auto mask has been used.

Thanks for reading,

Scott
