Normally rob I upload to Flickr at 1024 or 1400 pixels after a chat with m6 lad we came to the conclusion that due to Flickr downsizing all uploads then 2048 would be more logical .. of course that is also affected by the size of your own viewing screen ,but with the advent of ever larger screens I think it's needed . But as always that's subject to change :sick::banghead::banghead:

All my p.p is done initially in lightroom , then exported to p.s where I layer the image ,apply n/r to the background£ layer , resize for the net , then apply sharpening to the subject as needed using smart sharpen ,

On a straightforward. Image it usually takes around 3 minutes from raw file to finished photo

Which iPadPro do you have Gen1 or 2?
I will be interested to hear how you get on.

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?



Probably out of step with everyone else as I am trying to leave behind the desktop and work exclusively on an iPad. It's they way forward but still lagging behind desktop processing ( Photoshop and Lightroom) at the moment. Until full PS is available on iPad I am persevering with Affinity.

Historically on the desktop I used high pass filter and mid contrast sharpening techniques I created and made into PS Actions. Of course they don't work in Affinity ...so I need to revisit the sequences and see if they can be recreated in Affinity. In the meantime, I am doing very little sharpening while I am getting to grips with basic techniques and new equipment!.

I have used the Clarity (or 'make more noise slider') sparingly and of course unsharp mask....but mainly on a brush rather than global, and just enough to make a difference. I've never used any PS adjustments more than 20%...on the basis that if it needs more adjustment, it was wrong in the camera. I've yet to translate this mantra onto Affinity's interface sliders.

It's the 12.9". 2nd Generation 512gb.

The missus has been using one on her iPad. There are two negatives...the clicking noise of the pencil on the screen and I've discovered it doesn't set the 'source point' for cloning. I still have to touch the screen to select the source and then the pencil with clone as normal.

I suspect the second generation pencil will solve this as it has double tap options which may offer more. But of course that needs a different iPad.:whip:

On a positive note there are les finger marks on the glass. :lol:

Jeff and Ian super photos thanks for sharing them with us. It's about time this project got a star rating from one of our watchers?

Indeed, one of the 24,238 watchers, I don't think they are all unique views, many must be return visits.

It would be nice if some visitors would join in and comment, somebody out there keeps coming back to view Grahams outstanding thread and all the contributions.

Well done, many outstanding images, a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ thread.

You can turn off the click sound.

It's not the click so much as plastic tip tapping the glass:whip:
