Over the last three years, Blake has been refining his editing process using the Zone Systems. What started out as an idea evolved into an actionable sequence of layers designed to get you in and out of Photoshop with the best results in the least amount of time. While time savings was the intention, the resulting Digital Zone System created masterpieces with a fraction of the effort.

What started out as an idea evolved into an actionable sequence of layers designed to get you in and out of Photoshop with the best results in the least amount of time. While time savings was the intention, the resulting Digital Zone System created masterpieces with a fraction of the effort. It quickly became apparent that the System was a photo workflow workhorse. The only real problem was that the system was based on actions in Photoshop. While actions are powerful, they can be convoluted, confusing to beginners, and daunting to open and close everytime you want to use them. There was a need for something better, something more efficient, more accurate, and more deliberate.

Masking in Adobe Camera Raw and Lightroom is not easy. You have a whole new interface with several new mask additions and they threw out the concept of the Adjustment Tools like bad bathwater. Several items have been rearranged and the whole Add, Subtract, and Intersect Mask thing… Forget about it!
Or should you forget about it?
Would that be the best idea for your workflow?
Absolutely not! The Masking area in ACR and Lightroom that came packaged with the Photoshop CC 2022 release is incredible! While there are several changes to the way we worked in the past, it is all for the better, I promise.
In this course, I will help break down some of the barriers you may have with the Masking tools. I will supply you with knowledge and some incredible presets that use the principles of my Zone System Express as their base.
After this course, not only will you be making better masks with the presets I have built, but you will know how to make your own and how to use this new feature to its maximum potential!

Over the last 5 months I have been avidly working on perfecting a new post processing technique. It has taken every ounce of me to keep it a secret from my loyal viewers on EverydayHDR and HDRInsider. While I was perfecting the technique, I was also recording the process to share it with the community. The final product is Black White and Beyond: the Digital Zone System.
There is an ongoing debate among photographers whether digital photography processes will ever be able to reach the pinnacle of image quality and tonality achieved by Ansel Adams decades ago. The Digital Zone System (DZS) is an innovative methodology for editing digital images that mimics the Zone System created by Adams.
