THIS SPACE COMES ALIVE! for the BIG FALL UPGRADE!

And not insignificantly for a "Black Friday" Sale that lasts for more than a month!

But, first things first. 

Remember this image?  Of course you do, it's right down there in the previous post👇It's a scan of an image of my mother taken nearly 90 years ago, give or take. It's just one of hundreds and hundreds of old images I own, most of them fading and scratched and creased just like this one.

In the  past, I could have spent countless hours painstakingly editing this image to bring it back to life, and even with all the tools in Luminar Neo, or any of the other editing platforms out there it would still look not all that satisfactory.

You know where this is going, right?

I've been fortunate enough to be able to play around with the beta version of the "Big Fall Upgrade", and all of the new features and tools that are included, and there are some great ones, like the Luminar Neo Ecosystem, that combines the mobile apps with the desktop, seamlessly, to bring your phone-edited images to the desktop for further "massaging".  There's also the  new "Spaces" where you can creat your own personal "gallery of favorites", hosted by Skylum, and completely free of charge. It's included with your copy of Luminar Neo. There's the "Light Depth" tool, which I haven't quite figured out yet, but according to Skylum, gives you "perfect control over light and depth in every image

But nothing, and I mean nothing, got my attention like the "Restoration" tool, which brings new life to those old photos with, literally, one click of a button:

Ooh, uncomfortable "Marty McFly" vibes. I'll go in to more detail in future posts, but in the meantime, here are a few more samples, including my biggest day in high school (below), and showing you all images do NOT have to be restored with color-added.

Okay, the Black Friday Sale this year runs from 11am EDT today, until December 1(!) and features the deepest discounts of the year! Up to 75% off on the new Luminar Neo Ecosystem. Whether you're a current owner (Legacy Owner) of Luminar Neo, or an existing subscriber (and I should point out here, the invisible elephant in the room is that Skylum are doing away with the subscription model- big cheer from the peanut gallery- with no big fanfare). If you're a new purchaser, you'll get all of the new elements of the Fall Upgrade included with your purchase, as well as access to Luminar Mobile (for ios or Android). Legacy owners will get most of the upgrade elements, and will get all with purchase of an Upgrade Pass. And as I said, all purchase will come with deep, deep discounts, (including additional 10% with my personal discount code: PHOTODAN). "Affiliate Link" disclaimer: as always, if you purchase anything from Skylum using the links in this post, I'll get a small commission, which in no way affects your prices.

So, go. Go now and explore your options at this link (or any of the links scattered throughout this post), and save BIG TIME! I gotta get this online, and only ten minutes late.😎
