Thank you; great effect for something different. The ''medium fiber oil brush'': Is that standard Affinity brush or one have made/acquired? It's it's not in my brushes 😭. I'm not really into brushes but I did like the effect

Nice. 3rd one did it for me. Thank you for the Snap Shot tool info. I had no idea about it.

Bonjour Quand des tutos photoshop elements en français ??? Merci

Thanks David top job detailed and good pace

Awesome man! Helped me.

Great tutorial but this didn't work for me at all. Cropping the bottom layer simply resized the entire image, including all layers. It was far easier to place the photo in Affinity Design and add the frame there. Thanks for your ideas though.

Excellent tutorial David !

David, this is amazing indeed. I didn't know that there are all these possibilities with Affinity Photo

Thank you for this video ! I gave it a try and was very pleased with the result. I will do more ! Thank you ! 🙏🏽

How you got pixel to begin with you didnt show that

What an excellent way of adding lighting selectively. I have a landscape photo that needs a touch of this but the lighting filter can't do it justice.

Thanks for the good tutorial, David.

Hi, Is the nubmer of 8 thumbnails by creating the executable in PSG maximum number available? Thank you

Very cool! Thanks a lot for showing!

Brilliant, Keep them coming.

Great technique. I learned a lot. Thank you

Very impressive effects. I’m afraid I got lost about half way through. Thanks for a great demo.

Hello David, wow, what a great tutorial! So many possibilities that were previously unknown to me. Thank you so much for creating my awareness. I love all your videos and often watch them multiple times. By the way, I also appreciate your relaxed but precise way of presentation - just great! Kind regards Adi. P.S.: Are there actually brushes or something similar that I can use to add dust to objects (e.g. vintage cars in old garages) for composings? I am very curious what your expert tip is.

thanks, good work!

Thank you :-)

That was very useful and interesting.

Great lesson Dave! I hope you keep them coming.

OMG THATS ME

David Love Your Teachings.

I totally love how you teach these video courses. You explain everything, you don't skip over parts, you go at a pace I can work along with and I have learned a new way to do something each time I watch one. I am so happy I found these!!! Thank you for taking your time to make them! Looking forward to watching more, and, of course I have subscribed too. :-)

Thank you so much David! Saved me a lot of time!

brilliant thank you

When I click the middle of the gradient and press delte the entire layer is deleted.

Hi. I've used the second method successfully many times, thank you. However, I can't seem to get it to work in version 2.5.5; the HSL adjustment has no effect when the ellipse is nested beneath it. Does this version require a slightly different technique or am I simply missing something? Thank you.

This is an Effect of Beauty / I LOVE it thank You Sir.

Best explanation of the refine dialogue box ever! Thank you for another great video.

Thank you

Thank you for a great video 👌

Good one , well shown and very effective. Interesting enough, I have been doing similar for years, long before I knew there was a name for the effect. The main difference ; I was/am too lazy to remove the "subject", so I add motion blur and often transform the whole image (2nd layer) and then do some various forms of masking/blending to reveal the subject. All started when I felt the need to make the actual subject (often just a leaf) stand out from the background . The earliest I can find is 2012. IMO, the effect makes more sense than the (over done) ICM effect which seems more about making bad photography look good 😇 Thanks for sharing ---- I will have a look at your other videos

Thank you for the video. The picture looks amazing! Your knowledge of affinity photo is unbelievable!

Thank you for the great tips. Amazing effect

Great video.

This is a very good tutorial. What is shown is really mastery of the Art. Thanks David.

A nice application but I have used PS since day one (1990) so I might as well continue doing that...

Old how-to video but works great on Photoshop Elements 2024 for Mac. Thanks David!

This tutorial is outdated in Affinity Photo 2. Saved Presets do not show up under View!, Where are they?

Thanks for this, top tip…. Take a photo at the beginning of the sequence and one at the end with either your lens cap on or palm over the lens to produce a black blank shot at the beginning and end of the set, then its so easy to see where the set starts and ends when looking at the photos.

Rite Davrodigital Dude, Found this last night and am just trying it now, I have been looking for this process for a while for some illustrations I'm doing so a massive thanks! TFS, GB :)

Thank you for this but I have a follow up question, if that’s ok. When I wanted to use the macro I’d saved, I went to ‘View’ - ‘Studio’ - ‘Macros’, but when it opened there wasn’t a library showing the saved macro. I assumed I must have done something wrong, so I went through the recording process again, and saved it, only for the original macro to be shown as saved. Is this glitch in the software, or do I need to locate saved macros in a different location. Thanks in advance

I'm new to affinity and found this video a god send.. many thanks..

Top notch. Many thanks.

Do you make these changes in the RAW file and then develop them to jpg, or did you first develop them to jpg and then make the changes to BW?

What a fantastic tutorial, thanks. Just starting out and bought Affinity suite, can't wait to get going. Subscribed.

got what i needed. Realized I downloaded Designer. Didn't know about Photo so this helped in more ways than one. Thank you.

Excellent. Thank you!
