Theophany posted:Capture One looks pretty good. They do perpetual licenses too. Capture One is my preferred photo doohickey but they do make you buy it again every major release if you want to keep updating. About the only thing its missing for my workflow is a decent spotting tool and better masking for adjustment brushes. LR does a lot better there. Pretty sure its spotting tool is really just Photoshop's content aware fill which is voodoo magic. Edit: If you own an Alpha series Sony camera you can get it for next to nothing.

Try using Luminosity Masks. You'll probably still end up getting some of the foreground as well but you'll have less to unselect.

GrandpaPants posted:This advice and video were awesome, thanks! There's this whole sub-genre of landscape photography that uses luminosity masks combined with gradient masks to take things to far and make purposely fake looking shots; they call it Iterative Gradient Selective Masking, but their toolset is still pretty useful for difficult masking situations. Here's another example.

The v600 is a v550 with whatever ArcSoft PhotoStudio is included. I like my v550 for scanning medium format negatives. Does 35mm well enough for internet use but I wouldn't print anything from its scans.

I find it doesn't have the resolution to scan an image from 35mm film with enough information for the print size I usually prefer, 8" or more on the short side, prints tends to end up rather soft looking unless I use an excessive amount of sharpening. Perfectly fine for 4x6" though. I use a digital camera (Sony a6000) with a macro lens slug under a tripod over a good quality light table to scan 35mm though the v550 is just fine for quick proofs when scanning at a lower resolution for speed.
