Thanks Walt. It was the Flow, opacity and hardness settings Sorry for slow reply.

After the last update my in painting brush has stopped working. using intell duel core i5 16gb ddr3 windows 7 ultimate.

Thank you I shall have a try with your suggestions

How do you do it

Thanks for reply's :) was experimenting with Affinity Photo finding out how to use it, also had just loaded some freebies. Used a coloured brush that when moved across the picture left a trail of coloured circle segments across the frame. the faster or slower you move the brush controlled the opacity of the segment. After putting several different coloured lines to fill the frame and adjusting brush size per line, I then moved to liquefy mode and using the squirl section useing different sizes of brush introduced the patterns. Being new to post processing software I am continuing to experiment and trying the powerful features of Affinity Photo and I must say that purchasing this software has been the best purchase I have made so far, fantastic value. :)

I hope your ankle is soon better :) Your love rival is a good looking guy be happy for her. It looks like there will be the pitter patter of small webbed feet soon, so I look forward to seeing some pictures of them with their family. Thanks for your effort and showing the resulting superb images. :) :) :)

Not into compo's ...............But I dig this one well done

Simple and neat very good but what is the brand

I have just caught up with my post and I would like to thank Kodiak for his reply ( it made me think for myself and gave me better understanding of my problems) The input about using de-haze was also appreciated . Finally Please no Chihuahua's on my posts thanks :) :) :) ;)

Thank you Pollux :)

The darker one had a milky haze

You are really talented well done. :)

That sexy blue eyed look will make your Baby jealous and she will come my way :lol: both great shots

Veeeryyy nice......

Great shot Something has the attention of the middle one. :)

just updated mine. it's like its been turbocharged. I am a newbie to processing and I am beginning to get the hang of it. I would just like to say that I have never in a long time had as much value for my money as I have had from my purchase of affinity photo. I am very happy and spreading the word. :) :) ;)

Now I can see it from opening the thumbnail but it came very big had to take my screen down to 25%. Having said that I really like it, :) ;) Time to experiment now ;)

I cannot see it either just a small square with a black cross. Whoops sorry black square white cross :D

Great job .....well done

Carl 123 This forum is for the enjoyment of the individual member who joins. It is not for any member to dictate to another individual member how they should or should not contribute to the forum. If you want to know anything just ask, but do not be offended if you do not get the reply you want and let it go at that. To quote you: " I guess I will have to make do with my mediocre images and use AP where I can to enhance them to a level where they were better than before but never to a level that a professional could. " Why should you not achieve that standard? ;) :) Might I suggest {in a friendly way} that you take inspiration from the superb images you see. Learn how to use AP by the use of the vast array of tutorials {either free or paid for) and experimenting with the tools. This is my learning method. Then look at your own images and alter them accordingly to make the improvement. I have a friend, semi pro, who produces brilliant images and has never used PP except for resizing. Developing a good taking technique is the best way forward, Lets all enjoy the forum in our own way ;) :) :)

Ah well......I know what you mean there :) I will have three quarters of a century in come March :blink:

Have you not got the original file to re do it? :)

Great example of what can be done by AP, well done. Like the image :) It would appear that your children have the same creative mind as Dad. :)

Brilliant capture of the mood of having a very good Whiskey ( I have emptied a good few bottles of Jamesons in my time ;) ) hope they gave you a bottle. And a happy new year to you too :)
