bentastic Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 I really like to create dramatic b+w photos in AP. Can someone tell me the tools in AP which are closest to 2 tools in Lightroom, which can be viewed in a youtube video: "...he makes the sky darker..." (and the ground...) and the second tool follows immediality as the lightnings / spots on the houses / bridge / heaven Can you give me some comparable tools / techniques in Affinity Photo? What comes nearest? I tried the gradient tool, but in LR you have 3 lines for example, in AP i got only two points with a far away gradient from that one in the video even if i add points in the slider. Screenshot of tool 1 "to make the sky darker" Screenshots of tool 2 "lightning spots": I am very grateful for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotMyFault Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Hi, it would be best to completely forget and unlearn all Adobe workflows. Trying to look for 1:1 replacements won’t help you at all. There are uncountable training videos how to achieve identical or similar results with Affinity Photo, but you need to learn the Affinity way of workflow. Just look into the tutorial section of this forum, or go to YouTube and search for Affinity and dramatic black and white.

So you are really complain about not getting someone else starting google search for you? I actually did provide relevant information enabling YOU to find the requested help yourself. Mis-classifying this as teaching only shows missing respect and egocentric personality (now you can call me teaching with reason) https://www.google.com/search?q=Affinity+dramatic+black+and+white&client=firefox-b-m&source=lnms&tbm=vid&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj7uODvmYHwAhXFjKQKHUg6A1IQ_AUoA3oECAEQBQ&biw=1261&bih=923&safe=images Quote Mac mini M1 A2348 | Windows 10 - AMD Ryzen 9 5900x - 32 GB RAM - Nvidia GTX 1080 LG34WK950U-W, calibrated to DCI-P3 with LG Calibration Studio / Spider 5 iPad Air Gen 5 (2022) A2589 Special interest into procedural texture filter, edit alpha channel, RGB/16 and RGB/32 color formats, stacking, finding root causes for misbehaving files, finding creative solutions for unsolvable tasks, finding bugs in Apps.
