That's really good Eric, how did you do that feather in the middle? I was going to have a go but I couldn't figure how to do that feather.

If it's that good perhaps I better unearth my iPad and load Affinity Photo.

Done it again!!!! :whip::whip::whip:

It did it one time too many, I changed to 50 posts per page. If it's a problem I will put it back to 20 but I'm fed up with commenting on a previous post to find it 's on the previous page.

I hadn't done any cloning with Affinity until Jeff mentioned it. So I had a look at it for this image. Nothing like a challenge. :lol:

The biggest problem using an iPad is the accuracy using your finger. So I've ordered an apple pencil, which will give finer control like a digitiser tablet....the iPad becomes a touch Wacom. :thumbs:

As you know, I am Photoshop thru and thru but until they release a full version for iPad (supposedly this year) Im using what is widely acknowledged as the best iPad image editing suite. It does everything PS can do ...well the stuff we use regularly... although in slightly different ways that need some relearning.

Because of this I can't easily explain how I did the bit you are referring to...would need to demonstrate next time we met up.

:thumbs:



Have to say, this bird photography coupled with taming the iPad as a photo editor has proved a pleasant distraction post retirement. Still trying to master the techniques that get results like Iain and Jeff...but it's fun trying.

Here's another photo, which if you are quick, you can comment on before the next page :lol::lol:

Make sure you get the right pencil. They now do two models. One for 1st generation iPad Pro and a different one for the new 2nd generation iPad Pro. They are not interchangeable!

Yes it really is super sharp.  Great shot.
This is something I keep meaning to ask everyone.

How do you sharpen?
What software?
What are your typical settings?
Do you use a formula or just do it by eye?
