https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wx6U78HlglQ Learn how to change the eye color in a realistic way in Affinity Photo. The human eye is as complex as it is beautiful. That makes it a little hard to change the color the right way. But it's all made easy if you know how. Let's find out. The Iris of the eye has multiple colors, often 3 or more that mix beautifully and make the eye so interesting and alive. So, when changing the color, we have to take that into account and try to recreate it in a natural way in the new color we want to adjust it to. For that we create two separate Adjustment layers and recolor the eye for a natural look.

Today I will show you why some pictures are great and others are just mediocre. The answer(s) to that is not as hard as you think and most of the time hasn't that much to do with skill. Here are the Key Factors: - have story you want to tell - guide the eye of the viewer - observe the subject you want to photograph to find interesting elements & times - take a lot of shots, until one comes close to what you need So, the main element here is that great shots are that great, because of the preparation, story and amount of photos taken to reach the goal. If you do that, your photography will vastly improve, BUT this is not a solution for everyday shots on they fly. Almost all great photos are prepared or a 1 in a 1000 shot.
