Skylum Launches Drone Week, Showcasing Luminar Neo For Drone Photos

Skylum’s Luminar Neo software has been used by photographers to edit all kinds of photography, but for Drone Week, the company also wants to highlight just how precise its tools are for editing aerial shots.

With this in mind, Drone Week is being launched to give drone photographers a unique opportunity to sign up for Luminar Neo’s aerial photo editing tools (and the entire software platform in general) a test flight for their drone-captured shots.

Luminar Neo offers a whole range of photographic editing and sorting features for photography in general. Many of these use the power of generative AI to make transforming images easier than ever.

Among Luminar Neo’s range of options for photo editing are also several that work specifically well for livening up aerial photos.

Here’s a breakdown of all that Luminar Neo offers for your drone photography.

Luminar Neo’s tools for editing drone photos are both easy to use and extremely advanced. Because the software also offers a whole host of media import and organization tools, it’s really easy to upload and sort images from your drone’s media storage units.

Once you’ve uploaded and sorted, you can try one of several options that are particularly great for aerial photo editing. Here are some key examples:

Panorama Stitching

The first of these that is worth mentioning is Luminar Neo’s Panorama Stitching tool.

This component of Neo lets you seamlessly stitch together multiple images into one expansive and immersive, seamless panorama that looks like it was taken in a single shot.

Considering the kinds of uses drone photography is for, panoramic shots are likely to be a crucial part of your compositions. Luminar Neo makes stitching one together for deeper editing into something really easy.

Enhance AI

Another powerful photo editing tool found within Luminar Neo is called Enhance AI. It offers extremely powerful functionality for enhancing photos across multiple layers while being almost absurdly easy to use.

With Enhance AI, users of Luminar Neo can modify or improve and tweak aspects of their images through a dozen fundamental controls for elements like shadows, highlights, contrast, tone, saturation, detail level and exposure.

The overall results of these edits through Enhance AI are extremely realistic photo enhancements that let you convert even very plain photos into eye-catching, vivid images.

For drone photos, Enhance AI is especially useful simply because many drone images natively emerge with bland colors and weaknesses in their levels of detail. For example, a panoramic shot taken with a drone on a cloudy afternoon may naturally produce visuals with slightly washed-out colors and weak highlights.

Enhance AI can fix these issues rapidly through its controls and leave your photo ready for more specific, deeper edits.

Enhance AI also lets you convert videos into panoramic photos and, if you want to take your photography to a more abstract level, it can combine a moving object from multiple frames into one sequential action photo.

The above is just a rundown of what Enhance AI can do. In combination with Luminar Neo’s other features, users can convert nearly any drone photo into something entirely unique.

Other Drone Photo Enhancement Features

The AI technology inside Luminar Neo lets users take aerial photos well beyond their original parameters in many ways. One of these is the software platform’s sky-swapping feature, called Sky Replacement.

With these tools, even the blandest sky within your panoramic or individual shots can be converted into something else with deep realism.

If you want to swap out a dull grey sky with deep, rich blues, a sunset or even a starry night, Sky Replacement is the perfect tool. With the results we’ve seen from it, the resulting sky swap genuinely looks real even when applied to complex photos.

Then there’s HDR Merge, which can combine up to 10 different drone photos into a single HDR image that accurately brings out the best highlights and contrasts from each image into one single HDR photo that looks pretty stunning.

The above are just a few key elements in Luminar Neo’s set of drone photo editing tools. You can explore more of them by giving the software a try for yourself.

During Drone Week, Skylum is making this completely risk-free by letting new users try Luminar Neo for free with 24/7 technical support included.

As an additional one-time deal during Drone Week, Luminar Neo is also being offered for 81% off if you spring for either a 12-month subscription or a Lifetime License.

The first of these is priced at an exceptionally low €59 or roughly $ 64USD while the lifetime license with all features included goes for a remarkably affordable price of €109 or about $119USD.

Both subscription offers come with a full 30-day money-back guarantee.
