- Have you taken photos with objects you wish were not there? Do not fret, Affinity Photo has a multitude of tools to remove objects of all kinds from large to small. In this video we demonstrate 4 tools and discuss the features of each. At the end we give a conclusion on which one is best!
Your content is fantastic - I'm not sure where you dig up the nitty gritty on this stuff. Your explanations are clear, succinct, and excellently enunciated making them easy to follow and understand, probably in the 90th percentile of all Affinity Photo UA-camrs. I hope that your channel continues to grow. Good job!
Wow thanks for your kind comments. I actually dig the stuff by trying the tools out because much of it is not documented at all. Not sure if that is the most efficient way but glad you appreciate it!
thanks for showing ; there is always something to explore differently --- the inpaint tool is my #1 for such work.
Couple of tips for less experienced
I find around 80% hardness is better
If the foot was touching to green there can quite often be some bleeding into each colour. One trick is add a blank layer above ; select inpaint brush >set the current layer and below (right end of tool bar) and brush away.
Another trick is to use the clone tool on the empty layer (set to set current layer and below) to make a clean break between the two colours and then use the inpaint tool as above . A more hard brush is generally better than very soft
Content aware tools are such a godsend ; makes an old hard job so easy
Thanks for the pro tips! Much appreciated. I'll have to take some time to digest and try out your steps. What content aware tool is your recommendation?
@@takebetterphotos8132 Happy to share ; after all someone showed me . One Lightroom tick I learnt by mistake is use the ~ key to add and remove flags . I past that around to a few online educators but it took awhile for them to pick it up --- I'm not sure even Adobe know about it . Right hand on the arrow keys ; left hand on the ~ or 1 key .
Content aware I believe is an Adobe "word" and in Affinity Photo I consider the Inpiant tool as only content aware tool I use (??) Digital still amazes what can be done so easily and fast these days
I have no interest in AI ; that scares the crap out me !
Yes its funny the inpaint tool is such a boring name for such a powerful tool. Every other photo editor hypes it like crazy calling it "magic eraser" or "content aware". In paint tool is actually as good as all of this but you never hear affinity bragging about it. I guess Adobe forgot about the short cut if their own educators are not educated about it.🙂 Yes AI is getting scary. But one of my future videos will be on a "generative fill" on Canva...an online photo editor. AI now letting online now doing more than Windows apps.
Inpaint tool : Forgot to mention this handy trick for things like straight power lines >> click at one end > move the pointer to the other end >click again + Shift . Magical straight line .
I have just put much of this video into use to remove power pole/lines from a tree/shy blue shy image . Found the clone and inpaint tools worked the best . Take away was make the image larger and work slower for the best result . Big blue skies not the big problem as before
Thanks for tips specially the magical straight line! Will have to try that
Thanks for clear description
glad to help!
Excellent.
Thanks for listening
If you find that repeated stampings with the Clone Brush produce an unnatural-looking mosaic, you can then use the Healing Brush Tool to smooth over the area.
Thanks for the tip! Healing brush is best when source and taret have similar color and tone.
I have the same two favorites; clone & inpainting work the best.
Yes not sure why you even need a healing brush. Those two alone work great.
