Skylum Luminar AI 1.5.5 10909 + Portable

Spectacular portraits with Luminar AI Update 4
Helping you explore your creativity and making your editing experience comfortable are our top priorities. In this update, we bring you the power to create spectacular portraits with a unique AI-based bokeh effect that takes into account image depth. You will also find many improvements that make editing even more comfortable. Let’s dive right in.

Spectacular people thanks to Portrait BokehAI
Want to achieve dreamy and spectacular portraits with just one slider? Now you can. With the help of artificial intelligence, Portrait BokehAI creates a beautiful background blur in seconds, adding a realistic and dreamy 3D bokeh effect to your portraits.

Use Portrait BokehAI to automatically emulate the stunning background haziness of a high-quality lens at maximum aperture. Easily add volume, airiness, and depth to your photos. Hide imperfections in an unfocused background. Let the people in your images stand out without needing a powerful light-sensitive camera or when shooting in harsh lighting conditions. Thanks to AI, this tool recognizes people from the waist up, groups of people, and people in unusual positions and applies all changes automatically and effortlessly.

With Portrait BokehAI, you don’t have to waste time on masking. Simply use the Amountslider to regulate the amount of background blur and the tool's algorithms will separate people in the foreground from scenery in the background, putting the spotlight on the people. For those who want to correct imperfections, the Brush Control tools are at your service. (You can adjust the brush Radius, Softness, and Opacity.) If you need something in the background to stay in focus, or if you want to add additional detail in a subject’s hair, you can use the Focus and Defocus tools and mask the area of your photo that you wish to be affected. Restore allows you to return to the original automatically generated mask. In the Background controls, you will find sliders that help you gain even more control over the results, including by enhancing brightness, pulling up background highlights, and refining edges.

Better workflow with visual Texture previews
Create fantastic compositions and stunning effects with the improved Textures tool, which gives you a more comfortable workflow. In the Local Masking tab, click +Add and select Texture. Now you can visually browse Textures in the dropdown list to instantly have an idea of what your final result will look like (just like in SkyAI and Augmented SkyAI). Custom Textures are also shown right after various default selections in the visual dropdown grid: you’ll see Flares, Sparkles, Custom, and will be able to add more.

Perfect sky positioning in SkyAI
To deliver perfect and realistic results, we’re constantly improving the algorithms behind our AI tools. In Update 4, you can enjoy significant improvements to the SkyAI tool. One of these improvements is a new slider that correctly adjusts the position of the sky. Now you can replace the sky and set the desired position of your horizon line thanks to the Shifting Horizon Control in the Sky Orientation section. Instead of Vertical Position, Horizontal Position, and Horizon Blending sliders, there is now just one smart control that saves time and is more efficient at getting the replaced Sky Texture just where you want it.
