Luminar for Mac is today getting a significant update that makes editing photos within the app much improved and easier than before. The headlining feature of this update is called AI Sky Enhancer.
AI Sky Enhancer allows users to “add depth, definition and detail to the sky without creating artifacts or affecting other aspects of the image.” This means images with trees and bridges, which are usually tough to isolate, will stay intact while the artificial intelligence engine is able to brighten or darken the sky.
The company behind Luminar, Skylum (previously Macphun), says that this feature is aimed towards newer photographers or those who don’t have the time to spend countless hours editing photos. Rather, it wants its users to be out in the world creating photos.
Luminar is available for both Mac and Windows (bundle) for a low $59 through the company’s website. The update with AI Sky Enhancer will be available on November 1st, check out the new tool in action here.
Last year Luminar received a major update and positioned itself as a serious Lightroom CC competitor. Read our full review here.
