[@sadfah69]

After focus app is easy for background blur

[@abhimanyusingh8391]

U also can do this with afterfocus application (Will be very easy & may be better)

[@CarlosROSEROM]

What kind of format, jpg or RAW, should I use for better editing? Whether you use snapseed or lightroom.

[@NavEditsOfficial]

it is always good to have RAW if you want to recover lot of details from shadows, also there will be lot of flexibility while color tuning. For edits like this where we actually try to lose details through blur, jpegs are fine.

[@CarlosROSEROM]

@@NavEditsOfficial Thank you, you do excellent tutorials. I am following your tutorials, I have started taking photos with the expert RAW app on the Galaxy note 20 ultra.

[@KozmoGamerAndroid]

Bro can you do a minimalist edit please.

[@user-cj8ho9ed3g]

Hello, your teaching is very good. Sometimes I don’t see your function options clearly. Can you mark it?

[@NavEditsOfficial]

Will try to mark it in future videos. I normally mention the menu items while clicking them.

[@RobiulSk-qc8gv]

Photoroom is best for blur effect

[@Abdulkkdkd]

Why i save cant be same

[@sanediting334]

l will try it.....hhh

[@rachnabhatnagar9359]

How you get this brush started as I use my finger for that suggest

[@NavEditsOfficial]

Even I use finger only. Just zoom in to the maximum and brush for precise selection. If you are talking about the small white circle, it is just to show viewers what I am doing. It doesn't make any difference while editing.

[@lonelybali]

I am a newbee with lightroom. Could you explain a bit more regarding using two finger slider on the whites and blacks... Or do you have previous video explaining about it? Many Thanks in advance..

[@NavEditsOfficial]

While two finger sliding on whites, if you start seeing dots, that's when those areas start losing details and get over exposed. So you need to stop sliding just when you start seeing them so that brighter parts pop without losing details. It works similarly on darker areas with black slider. Hope this helps.

[@lonelybali]

@@NavEditsOfficial thank you for explanation....🙏🏽

Sir please upload manipulation tutorial in snapseed+Lightroom..

[@NavEditsOfficial]

Will certainly do, takes time to do manipulation videos on mobile.

[@spbishnoi3592]

Why we have to use healing and double exposure? Why can't we directly use the lens and masking feature?

[@billydie17]

The edge will not look nice

[@sankilaunda5217]

You can I have done it many times

[@NavEditsOfficial]

Without removing the subject, there will be a halo effect around the edges. So for best results, it is good to remove and then apply blur.

[@billydie17]

[@riyushpaikra]

Blur to Lightroom me bhi ho jati hai

[@v__vlogs07]

Bro instead of using it you might have used photoshop and cut the image and do that.... which was very easy instead of using the brush tool

[@NavEditsOfficial]

This tutorial is for Snapseed users mainly, a lot of viewers here are mobile users. Select subject is more than enough in Photoshop.

[@user-xn5jl3qj8l]

It will only look good in video ..if you done by yourself the edges will surely detectable that it is edited ...

[@Den27K]

Why you did not just blur the photo and erase out the blur effect on the bird?

[@NavEditsOfficial]

We get halo effect around the bird edges if you don't remove the bird before blurring. For the best results, need to do remove it.

[@St3165Goblin]

Instructions unclear:when I use healing tool it just completely broke the picture

[@NavEditsOfficial]

Don't worry about image looking weird. As it will be blurred anyhow, it won't affect the final result much. Also need to be precise while using Healing tool, try to brush it as perfectly on the subject as possible. Hope this helps.

Isn’t it a waste of time in 2023 ?

[@NavEditsOfficial]

You could say so with so many AI apps out there! But this is a free app and if you take time, gives complete control on masking selection and app is smooth too.

[@iosuser1174]

Too manipulation in photo ….

[@aswathiv8429]

Healing is not proper

[@NavEditsOfficial]

You don't need to worry much about healing in this type of editing as those parts will be blurred anyway.

[@Marv3Lthe1]

Too much work. Many free apps can do it automatically

[@BibxikxbMmJvih]

I agree that plenty of apps do this nicely but still it cannot be as good as this.. try this and use any app and compare both the images.. this looks more natural and AI or computer generated blur effect is too artificial.

[@midping9768]

Too much blur make it look unrealistic..

[@SolidBlueBlocks]

Incredibly difficult, takes a massive amount of time. Why don't just use the blur feature in the standard gallery app? This is worse...
