    The TRICK to find EVERY blemish.

    Speed up your healing and cloning in Affinity Photo.

It will save lots of editing time for every picture you touch. I’ll show you how.

    Cropping out can SAVE your photograph

    Cropping out of a photo might be as useful as cropping in. It is a voyage into an area where pixels do not currently exist. It can change the impact of an image completely.

    In this video, we will look at why you might want to crop out of an image, composition advantages, and where to find the pixels to fill in the universe outside your picture.

    It doesn't matter if you are in Photoshop, Lightroom, Affinity Photo, On1, Capture 1 or any other photo software.

    SIMPLIFY YOUR EXPOSURE | 6 REASONS TO ALWAYS SET YOUR CAMERA TO 400 ISO

    If your a novice or a pro, simplifying your exposure settings let’s you focus on more important things, like taking a good picture.

    The three variables of ISO shutter speed and aperture are more than we need to cope with.

    What if I said “set ISO to 400 and forget it exists”? I explain the freedom it will bring to your photography. Head to my website at https://www.filnenna.com and every picture you see was shot at ISO 400 without exception.

    This video shows the 6 reasons my digital AND film cameras are always set to 400.

    Why great images can FAIL without intentional cropping

    The crop of a portrait has a voice. It can make it whisper, or it can shout by changing only the position of the picture's edge. In this video, I cover reasons why, and why not to crop, useful aspect ratios and how to compose within the frame to influence the viewer.

    It doesn't matter if you are in Photoshop, Lightroom, Affinity Photo, On1, Capture 1 or any other photo software.
