jk wrote:Eric, Snapseed has two methods of changing detail .....sharpness and structure. Sharpness is a simple unsharpmask at set intensity....you just change degree of application. I am not sure exactly how structure works but it seems to work preferentially on the less dominant parts of an image. In other words it's less effective on the main subject. You cannot mask the subject in Snapseed but you can put selected control points around the subject then reduce the area of influence (finger and thumb squeeze) and apply the selected tool. It's like Nikon NX control points. You just have to do enough control points and with enough spread to cover the background. So start with Selective menu option....

The completed image can then be sharpened without reversing the destructureing. Oh ...the extra tail was removed with the healing tool BEFORE applying the selective destructuring in that area to remove any healing artefacts. I stress this is a simplistic method....it's a free app for heavens sake! But for the purpose of showing images on the forum it's adequate, simple to use and quick ....providing you are use to using an iPad.

Their progress has been controlled = limited by Apples desire to keep hold of the reins as to what you are allowed to do on them. But that is changing. Professional designers are using these hand held devices much more and are forcing Apple to add more power, more functionality. The iPads may still be at the development stage that the D1X was at, compared to film, back in the day. Look how DSLRS have advanced beyond the D1X in a few years.  So I am convinced that tablet computing will become the norm for photo editing and design in the Next few years. Technology is moving at an astounding pace in the Far East. My friends new Huawei phone not only has 3 focal length lens, 45mp sensor, it KNOWS what time of day and where in the world you are so takes into account local conditions eg night time photography without metering, and even can be set to exclude unwanted items in the frame at the time of taking the photo ( eg moving people!) He is a top level software engineer (satellite, telecom fields) and even HE is staggered at what's coming out of the Far East. So much so, he's going to move India in 2019 ....mind you the Brexit aftermath shockwaves are also a motivator.
