Many photographers believe they need a full frame or APS-C sensor camera to achieve professional image quality, but this video proves that Micro Four Thirds (MFT) systems can produce fantastic results with the right workflow. By mastering RAW photo post-processing in Adobe Lightroom, you can extract incredible dynamic range and color information from a single shot, even in challenging low light conditions like high ISO Northern Lights photography. I share my personal minimalist techniques using the Panasonic Lumix GF9 and Leica 9mm f1.7 lens to show that you do not need complicated masking or hours of editing to get a "pro" look from a small sensor. My editing setup relies on a portable powerhouse, the Asus ROG Xbox Ally X, which aligns with an essentialist philosophy of small and lightweight gear that packs a lot of punch. This tutorial covers everything from basic exposure adjustment, luminance noise reduction, automatic masking, to my signature clarity and dehaze settings, designed to help you speed up your processing time with just a few clicks to get amazing quality out of your RAW photos. 00:00 INTRODUCTION 02:21 GEAR 03:45 PHOTO 1 - NORTHERN LIGHT LANDSCAPE 07:56 PHOTO 2 - FLOWER 09:40 PHOTO 3 - PORTRAIT 12:24 CREATE PRESET 15:28 OUTRO ✈️ MY TRAVEL PHOTOGRAPHY VIDEO COURSE: https://garyw.website/travelvideo ✈️ MY TRAVEL PHOTOGRAPHY E-BOOK: https://garyw.website/travelbook 📽️ BECOME A MEMBER ON MY PATREON https://www.patreon.com/gary_w 🖼️ JOIN THE COLLECTIVE GALLERY https://garyw.website/submitphoto 😊 CHECK OUT MY DAILY VLOG CHANNEL https://www.youtube.com/@GaryDailyYT 🌐CHECK OUT MY WEBSITE - Photo Gallery, Courses, Blog https://garyw.website 🍵 BUY ME A COFFEE https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/Q9ZX28LPC6TBQ 🙏 AFFILIATE LINKS - Help my channel by using these links below 🎒 Alpaka Gear Bags https://alpakagear.com/GARYW 🌐 Pixpa Web Builder https://www.pixpa.com/?via=garyw55 🙏 TTArtisan 50mm f1.2 lens https://ttartisan.store/products/ttartisan-50mm-f1-2?ref=nljuqxvo 🙏 TTArtisan 35mm f1.4 lens https://ttartisan.store/products/aps-c-35mm-f1-4?ref=nljuqxvo&variant=41835989139618 🙏 TTArtisan 23mm f1.4 lens https://ttartisan.myshopify.com/products/aps-c-23mm-f1-4-black 📷 Japan Travel Photography Vlog Playlist https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6tLJ50jjXDXdX64A3Tej2xgsJ8E_jz38 📷 Everyday Photography Vlog Playlist https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6tLJ50jjXDVACC2pXCR5lK5I4VIbCs3T 📷 Labuan Bajo Photography Vlog Playlist https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6tLJ50jjXDXUjOUwiCM6cPXQLG11RNko 📷 US Photography Vlog https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6tLJ50jjXDVRVT3uCveZ14Oa6hIGYz7k 📷 New Zealand Travel Vlogs https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6tLJ50jjXDWbn779nv-KOzWwVzJ13Lxz 🌋 Iceland Vlogs Playlist https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6tLJ50jjXDVcl81f-XzQhzUF8u2ivbUI 📷 Bali Travel Vlog https://youtu.be/RbiYqgh5UAM 🎬 Recorded using any of these cameras: Panasonic Lumix G85, Panasonic GX85, Panasonic LX100, DJI Pocket 2, DJI Osmo Pocket 3, Samsung Galaxy ZFold 5, Z Fold 5, Insta360 Go 2, DJI Osmo Action 4, Panasonic Lumix G100, Sony ZV-E10 🎤 Audio: Rode VideoMic NTG, Rode VideoMic Go II 🎬 Graded and edited using Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 16 🎵 Outro Music: Edge of the Mind Remix - Gary Wiryawan https://garywiryawan.bandcamp.com/ #microfourthirds #panasonic #lumix #lens #leica #camera #olympus #omd #omsystem #fujifilm #fuji #mft #m43 #photography #video #micro43 #gx85 #g85 #gx9 #x100vi #gh6 #om1 #om5 #gh7 #landscape #travel #tutorial #telephoto #travelphotography #streetphotography #portrait #street #tips #beginners #image #photo #mirrorless #sony #zve10 #g100 #gas #gearacquisitionsyndrome 🤫 Help Youtube recommend this video: panasonic lumix gf9 gf10 gx850 gx880 gx800 gm1 gm5 s9 g85 g90 g95 g97 g100 g100d price budget affordable cheap fujifilm fuji sony rx1r iii x100vi xm5 xe5 s5 pro a7cr x-t200 lightroom x20 x100 x t20 w800 rx100 a7iv a74 zv 1 ii zv1ii zv1 zv-1f a6400 canon eos rp canon eos r50 best camera under 1000 nikon olympus om system om1 om5 ii om10 gh7 gh6 pen-f ii gx9 ii g9 g9ii aps-c full frame mft m43 g7 petapixel tony chelsea northrup snappiness jared polin a7v a75
Chalkbeat is a nonprofit news organization committed to covering one of America's most important stories: the effort to improve schools for all children.
A Domestic Cook Book (1866) by Malinda Russell is the oldest known published cookbook written by an African American woman. Born in Tennessee, and descended from Virginia freemen, Russell decided to move to Liberia at the age of 19. When her money for the trip was stolen, she was stranded in Lynchburg, Virginia, and began working as a cook and companion, traveling with women as a nurse. After living in Lynchburg for only four years, Russell's husband died and she moved with her son to Tennessee where she kept a boarding house and then went on to run a pastry shop. After a second dramatic robbery in 1864, Russell moved to Paw Paw, Michigan, because she had heard it was the "garden of the west" and published a cookbook "with the intention of benefiting the public" as well as supporting herself. A Domestic Cook Book contains 260 recipes and household tips that draw from Malinda Russell's twenty years of experience cooking in Southern kitchens, her boarding house, and her pastry shop, and showcase her skills as a pastry chef. This new edition includes a foreword by scholar Rafia Zafar as well as an introduction by the late food historian Janice Bluestein Longone that contextualize Russell's cookbook. Using the only known copy of the original book housed in the Janice Bluestein Longone Culinary Archive at the University of Michigan Library's Special Collections Research Center, this new edition preserves an important part of Michigan and American history and makes it widely available to readers for the first time.
