The attached photo shows a Whistling Kite which I have edited in LRC 14.0.1.
Noise reduction/sharpening has been applied using DXO pro Pure Noise.
The resulting image is a DNG
I have added a subject mask to the bird and an inverted subject mask for the sky.
When the subject mask is applied to...

Whenever I using masking in LIGHTROOM CLASSIC on B&W images the area I am masking ends up with a blue hue. What am I doing wrong or how can I remove the blue hue color from the masked area. This happens when I try to lower the exposure of the sky to make it darker or even with with the brush...

Morning all.
I've done a search on here and cannot find the answer so I'm just reaching out to see if anyone can shed some light on my query please.
For some reason, certain selective...
Am I going crazy or is the lastest version of Lightroom Class missing the 5 sliders presence sliders (Texture, Dehaze, etc.) when using the masking feature?
Lightroom (Classic) has come a long way since it first came out, and its grouped “Masking” (local adjustments) have become powerful and complex. It is certainly very welcomed and also, the “Sync” abilities make editing multiple photos in a set so much more comfortable and easier.
However, while...
Hi folks.
I'm having fun [not] trying to move a set/group/collection of masks around an image. I can move a single mask [radial, brush, gradient etc.] but anything that is nested won't let me move the group all at once. I assumed that clicking the group, or top level, name would enable me to do...
When editing people, is there a way to avoid having to go all the way back through the chain of Create New Mask > Select People > Person 1> Face Part> Create Mask every time you want to edit a different face part (eyebrows, eye sclera, etc.)? There must be, but I can't find it. In other words...
I'm new to the program and i'm trying to put a subject mask but whenever i click on it, an error message pops up "Something went wrong. There was an unexpected error and your request could not be completed". I have updated my drivers so its an issue with them.
Hi, I’m wondering a bit about the new masking functions. It's great to let the AI do the seleting and masking magic, but I wonder how to retouch a masked background. So far I couldn't find a tutorial, for my needs. I can blur and do colour edits to the background, but not retouch it.
In my...
I recently installed latest version of LR Classic 12.3 and today installed Microsoft system updates to version 22H2. Now, LR Classic opens normally and goes into edit mode hapily editing jpg file as expected until I select masking tool brush. After a few seconds the spinning disc appears then...
In LR, I pick "Masking" in Develop mode and create a subject and a background mask. I now want to go do Photoshop to use a more aggressive blur on the background. Utopia would be that I get to PS and just be able to say "Select Background" but I don't see it. I exported to PS as a smart...
This image was processed in LRC 12.2 subject mask applied with subtract mask adjustment applied.
Where I have subtracted from the subject mask there are spots of gold evident
Never seen this before in past versions
(Excuse the noise in the second image - prior to cleaning it up).
I may be missing something obvious but I don't seem to be able to find a way to apply Colour Grading to selected or masked parts of an image. For example, to just apply a highlight tint to a light sky without also affecting a similar tonal value of, say, white sand in another part of the image...
Hi all:
I am new to this forum and my first posting. I have updated to LRC v12 and masking ai tool not working . People detection not working. I have Mac OS Monterey with M1 chip. I contacted adobe several times and they could not fix it. Any suggestion / guidance would be really...
I'm working with a client who is using a Mac. For some reason, on his computer, every time we add a mask to an image, the Saturation slider starts off set to -33 instead of zero like all the other sliders. We've zeroed that slider out, thinking LRC would remember the zero setting. But the next...
Hi,
Are there any LR masking options such that I can create a mask that reveals just a central strip of the photo (excluding the top and bottom parts). I can't conceive of a way using Linear Gradients, since they start at the edges. Maybe some way to use Intersect and/or subtract Linear...
Hi
Is there a keyboard shortcut to duplicate a mask?
For instance the linear gradient.
I know you can get a new and duplicated mask using shortcut N when you have a sky mask.
But not for the other masking tools?

I'm really enjoying the new Mask features. However, I'm having an issue in trying to create an Invert Mask made up of a Subject and Brush Subtraction.
I have a picture of my grandson on a swing. When I create a Mask with Select Subject, LrC found my grandson but also associate parts of the...
Hi,
The new LR11 masking tool is a game changer, but I'm running into some issues. 'Select Subject' takes anywhere between 8-10 seconds each image to detect until the red overlay appears. The images aren't difficult as they are just standard engagement/wedding portraits of a couple shot almost...
One thing I've noticed with the new masking tools "Select Subject" and "Select Sky", is that they will sometimes (often?) make partial selections. While most of the image will be either fully selected, or fully not-selected, there will usually be some in-between areas where the selection is not...
Operating System:
Mac OS Huge Sierra (10.13)

Question or Description of Problem:
Is there a way to mask noise reduction in the same way as sharpening masking?
I want to be able to limit the NR to the deep shadows only where it needs it quite strongly but the rest of...
