The first image processed solely on the new toy - still using Affinity Photo but it’s been “optimised” for the iPad Pro…I think I’m getting there but I’ve decided to keep the images pretty “straight forward” until I’m comfortable again.
Is that the bones of your poor, old, previous machine? Looks like you're learning your way through it pretty well

Looks like your just chirping along with the new toy.

I checked the apps,they want $29 for subscription 😱

@joemuli It’s a one off purchase and then it just updates like a “normal” app. It was the same for the MacBook.
@joysabin I’m slowly getting there….
@swchappell The old one is safely gathering dust and stored away as a “back up” just in case ;)

Cool,I might give it a try— lots of my apps are free but limited effects and lots of ads and cookies🤷‍♂️🥺

big change over I'm sure

Nicely done. Good work on Affinity!

@jamibann Thanks - getting there!
@koalagardens Slowly getting my head around it!

@joemuli I much prefer it to Lightroom!

I'm interested Graeme - in what way do you find Affinity suits you better than Lightroom… you're certainly more skilled with Affinity than I am with Lightroom.

@vignouse The last version of Affinity, for the laptop, felt a lot more intuitive to me than Lightroom (I’m sure this upgraded version will as well once I get my head around where everything is!) and some of the presets and filters available on Affinity suit “my style of processing” more than those on LR. The big bonus is that while Affinity has all the same functionality as LR with a few added extras - more of a hybrid of LR and Photoshop really - it’s also a one off purchase rather than an ongoing subscription. Once you have the program downloaded it just updates itself like a “normal” app would, and it’s been designed specifically for use on Apple kit as well.
Sorry, I do ramble.
