I think I ruined a photo in Photoshop
Sep 24, 2017 15:08:17 #
Folks, I was working on an image of a sign with a row of lights. Some were burned out, but I successfully replaced the burned out lights. When I did that work, I zoomed in a bit. I didn’t zoom back out before I saved the image. I could be wrong; it could be me remembering it wrong, but I think the image was saved zoomed in. Is that how Photoshop works, or is my mind playing tricks on me?

Tricks. Select the magnifying glass tool, right click on your image and select Fit to Screen.

The image will have been exported in its entirety, where its framing depends on any cropping within the canvas that was used throughout the edit. Zooming in and out only affects how you see the image in the workspace.

Awesome! That means I actually did well cloning out some power lines! Thanks to both of you.

Tip: After doing any post processing on an image . . . regardless of how much or how little . . . never, never, never, never, save the image!!! "Save as" and add a letter or digit at the end of the file name. That way you will never lose the original.

In addition to the above advice. Never do PP on the original Layer. Always create another layer and work on that, thus retaining the original shot. I'm hoping you already know this but your post doesn't indicate this one way or the other.

Thanks, JR, I did know that, at least!

Someone already mentioned it, but Save as is something you should make yourself use all the time.
