No drawing, no messing around with selections. The desktop versions are Affinity Photo 2 and costs 40.99 for a limited time.
LUMINOSITY MASKS AFFINITY PHOTO IPAD WINDOWS
With my Blend Range so set, I get the below results. Affinity Photo 2 is available on macOS, Windows and iPad. To capture the look I wanted, I brought down the shadows to the bottom, but also added a third node nearer to the mid-tones in order to not make the drop off so harsh. Affinity Photo also differs from Photoshop when using luminosity masks for exposure blending because. The top of this dialog is fully opaque, and the bottom is fully transparent. RRP: AU79.99 for Windows or MacOS 30.99 for iPad. Like curves, the left control is for shadows, and the right is for highlights. Why did I make it look like this? Because I’m trying to hide my shadows so the firework flares will appear on its own in the sky. Near the bottom of this panel are two options, “source” and “destination.” As I’m dealing with my source layer, I choose “source.” This brings up a curves-looking dialog which I manipulate as the below image shows.
Instead, I select my firework image layer and open up the layer options panel in Affinity Photo. This is typically a photo, but it can be any object (or grouping of objects) you’d like. In order to make a clipping mask in Affinity Photo for the iPad, you first need a subject to apply the mask to. I suppose I could use a blend mode like Screen, but that tends to leave traces of the background visible. Step 1: Open your photo and ensure it’s on its own layer.
LUMINOSITY MASKS AFFINITY PHOTO IPAD MANUAL
How would I accomplish this? I can’t draw a manual mask around the flares of light, it would look terrible! But if I don’t mask anything the shadows of the trees and the darker sky from the firework photo are visible. It’s one of my favorite images of the bridge because the reflections off the water are wonderful.īut what if I wanted to spruce up the sky a bit and put something interesting there? Perhaps something like this firework photo I took this past June? It allows such a fine level of color control. Subtract Brights 1 (hold down Ctrl/Cmd and option/alt, and click on the ‘Brights 1’ channel’s thumbnail).
Select the entire image (hold down Ctrl/Cmd and press A). Take, the below photo of the Tacony-Palmyra Bridge I took several years ago. I love the color editor tool and that I can do luminosity masking within this program. This one is made slightly differently to the first two masks. This has some wonderful applications for composite photos. For example, highlights can remain visible while shadows become transparent. That is, it creates a mask based on tonal values.
The essential function of Blend Ranges is to create a luminosity mask. After seeing this tool in action in several tutorial videos I couldn’t believe I’d never heard of it before. I’ve been watching some tutorial videos on the excellent Affinity Apps the past couple of weeks, and discovered a trick in Affinity Photo I’d never before seen – Blend Ranges. In short, a clipping mask is when you take one object (such as a photo) and use it to fill in another object (such as a shape.) The way that you make clipping masks in Affinity Photo is quite similar to the process used in Affinity Designer whether it be for the desktop or iPad.
