First of all, you absolutely brought that image to life. Secondly, using the Curves adjustment to fix overexposure is waaay better than the Exposure tool because of the added control you have of finer adjustments. Lastly, the Secret Sauce knocked it out the park when you introduced the BOpponet. Great video and keep those coming. If you've done a video using the LAB option can you drop a link please and the same with using Colour Channels. Thanks a bunch and keep the Secret Sauce coming....

You, Olivio have saved an image that has strong potential by teaching me hidden Affinity Designer tools . I CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH for your generous knowledge and tutorials.. What led me to find you (already a fan) is that I believe I may have an award winning image (content) but thought it ruined due to overexposure! (No auto ISO on classic 5D.) OMG...so much to learn - you've uncovered many hidden powerful tools making AP better than I had imagined... so many ways to bring images new life. Am now feeling hopeful. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

Great to see "basic" photo editing videos --- maybe ''advanced basic photo" editing . One Affinity tool I often use now is Selective colour . Just a pity it does not have a colour picker as in Curves , however it is still a powerful landscape editing tool for my photos. I also find it's better to have a couple of selective colour adjustment layers for warm and cool colours that makes it easier to selectively reduce effects with masking . Even the Black, Neutral, White sliders can have a big impact on the image . I always find a bit of a disadvantage not having Orange (like Lightroom) --- there seems a large gap between red and yellow . Off Affinity topic: A little known Lr trick is found with the Red, Green, and blue saturation slides in the Camera Calibrations panel . Blue is likely most interesting and I have it in most "start" presets -- about 20%
@OlivioSarikas2 жыл бұрын
Yes, totally agree. That why I often use Photolab, Nik Collection and Lightroom for these purposes. They have Luminace and Chrominace masking. That orange slider and color picker are super important, because orange is also the base color of skin tones (not pink as it might seem. So that's a very good way to adjust them too

Hi, I need to add my workflow a Procedural texture with 2 functions: max(R,G,B)=mid(R,G,B) and then: min(R,G,B)=mid(R,G,B) Mean: Neead to slide the max from RGB until=middle color and same, slide min from RGB until=middle color. On Histogram max level musty be down until=middle level and min Level must be increase until =middle level

Great video Olivio, and that's some awesome secret sauce you poured onto that thing. One question: are you saying here I shouldn't play with the sliders alone as a matter of course? Normally with a RAW photo I adjust exposure and brightness first and up the shadows. Should I abandon that procedure and go with this first?
@OlivioSarikas2 жыл бұрын
Thank you. No, if you have a RAW do some basic adjustments first in the developer persona. I can also highly suggest that you get a better raw developer software like Photolab for that purpose, because the AP raw development is very bare bones.
@ianbrowne93042 жыл бұрын
@@OlivioSarikas " ....... AP raw development is very bare bones" Sadly so true . Naturally I use Lr5 or go straight to the Photo persona with the advantage of layers.

I use a term "bend the sliders" . In other words drag the sliders hard left and right to see what happens and then back off to suit . Do you know you can click in the % box and use the up/down arrow keys to get a finer adjustment ?

I love your tutorials, they are clear and concise. If you were working with a raw photo would you apply the curves adjustment in the Develop persona first, then switch to the Photo persona to complete the process ?
@OlivioSarikas2 жыл бұрын
That depends on the shot. I ususally Use Photolab for RAW development, because it'S a lot better. In Affinity Photo I would only do some basic adjustments in the Developer Persona and then do the rest with adjustment layers. You can try if the settings it the Developer Persona or the Photo Persona work better for you. I don't think there is a general answer
