I’ve been writing reviews for over ten years. I’ve covered all sorts of things from hardware, to software, and I’ve never had as hard a time writing a review as I have with Luminar AI. Since the application came out just before Christmas, I’ve seen many reviews and coverage extolling its virtues, but this wasn’t matching my experience with it. I wondered what I was doing wrong because it seemed like I was reading about a completely different application.

Skylum has been teasing the release of Luminar AI for quite some time now, and they’ve finally released the software. I’ll have a full review soon, but for now, you can find out all the details on the Skylum website

Ever since Luminar 4 was released, and SkyAI allowed easy sky replacements, there was one consistent complaint about the function. It didn’t include reflections. If you replaced a sky in an image containing water, the reflected sky would still be the original. Well, it looks like they have heard the feedback, as the company just released a preview of the new sky replacement feature in Luminar AI and it includes reflections.
