Excellent! You make the most informative tutorials in my opinion. Thank you!

[@MikeLeski]

Consistently informative and easy to follow! Keep'em coming! :)

Splitting some hairs if you ask me. I think is easier no matter what shot you take, leave a little room in all directions for any crop fixing that might be needed.

Great video, always so useful, that was a nifty trick with the inpainting at the bottom. Thanks.

Thanks for these techniques they will be very useful. Currently my Nikon Z lens is not recognised in Affinity (2) for lens corrections so I have to do any adjustments manually. Hoping it will be included soon.

I wish you had an effect that simulated Chromatic Aberration 🌈

[@AffinityPhotoOfficial]

Hey, you can do this a number of ways in Photo (separate channel transforms, live distortion on separate RGB pixel layers etc). I've got some free macros that have multiple chromatic aberration methods you can use: jamesritson.co.uk/resources.html#postproduction They're for 3D render post production but will work just as well for photographic workflows, including the chromatic aberration macros. If you try the Distortion method, just be aware that you need to change the macro playback option from 'No scale' to 'Max fit' for it to work properly. Hope that helps!

Interesting, many thanks. Rainy picture Maid Marian Way ?

Hey, both shots were taken in London, I can't remember the name of the street with the first shot though unfortunately...
