Great catch...for both of ya!

Beautiful....I love Bryce! Your shots are amazing Mike.

Thanks everyone! You all made me smile with your compliments on this set.

To answer some questions...no I didn't take shots this time from the railroad bridge, maybe next time! And you do see Bighorn Sheep trails on the mountain side but we didn't see any this time.

This area is extremely busy in the summer tourist season months but very light traffic in the winter. That bridge is fun to cross and I have seen people freeze out in the middle, the more people you get on it at one time the bouncier it becomes...I love it!

Nice one's...you could upload the video to youtube and post a link to it...I know we would all love to see it!

Good Job Ken...I have never seen one...they are good looking birds.

Took a road trip today to Kootenai Falls, it's a beautiful drive about 2 hrs away. Kootenai Falls is the largest undammed falls in the state and it offers an unforgettable and breathtaking view as the Kootenai River loses 300 feet in elevation traveling a few hundred yards down river. An attraction at the falls is a swinging bridge that provides access to the opposite side of the Kootenai River. To the Kootenai tribe, the falls is a sacred site. They view it as the center of the world, a place where tribal members can commune with the spiritual forces that give direction to the tribe and to individual members. Archaeological evidence shows the Kootenai had Native American sweat lodges and encampments up and down the river valley from Pipe Creek, (where light clay was found for pipes) to the falls area.

This area was also featured in the movie The River Wild, it is the gorge that Meryl Steep and Kevin Bacon floated thru.

These do look sharper in the downloads.

This area is completely covered during high water

I stayed on the Queen Mary many many years ago...it was beautiful at that time. Glad it's now being taken care of and restored.

Beautiful addition to your collection!

Now to learn how to use it!

Here are a couple of links to explain it:

But I think I finally found where they put it in the new version...see attached photo.

I was watching a how to video on Lightroom masking and they were showing how to apply a filter then use the Range Masking feature to adjust it. I don't have Range Masking option and can't seem to find it.

I am using W11, Lighroom Cc version 12.2
I am editing a raw file
I apply a Linear Filter and make an adjustment - say exposure
I then look for the Range Mask to be able to adjust the filter but it does not show

What am I missing?

This is what is missing

I apply a linear filter > make an adjustment to the exposure and the Range Mask should now be available at the bottom of the of the adjustment panel

Thanks! I am still not sure which one I like the best
