Affinity Photo: Developing Landscapes
What you’ll learn
-
Prepare RAW files for use by Affinity Photo
-
Use effective techniques for enhancing landscape photos
-
Use variations of an effective workflow when developing photos
‘I’ve learned some of the tools with Affinity Photo, but how do I actually enhance an image, start to finish?’
That was the question I saw asked on the Affinity Photo forums. And I thought: ‘Good point!’ So here is a course designed with just that in mind. I take you through the development of a series of landscape photos, and we start by adjusting a RAW file in the Develop Persona which is suitable for further development in the Photo Persona. Then we take that file through every step needed to bring it to a final, polished state. Check out the free preview introduction video and see the files we start out with, and then see just how good we can make them by the end.
I’ll take you through every stage and explain why we are doing things in a particular order. I’ve given you all the images used on the course to follow along with. I’ll show you problems that can crop up and what do about them. Landscape image development brings it’s own set of problems and opportunities and the various techniques I guide you through take that fact into consideration. Then I’ll show you examples of using plug ins from the Nik Collection to create incredible effects.
This course assumes you have some basic knowledge of Affinity Photo but I’ll also help you there. At the end of the course I’ve included some bonus videos which take you through the basics of the main tools we will be using. I also give you advice on where to get more tutorials and resources to take you from beginner to intermediate.
By the end of the course you will have seen and followed along with an effective workflow, start to finish. You will gain the confidence to tackle your own images and one day soon you may well be looking at one of your own photos which you’ve enhanced, and thinking ‘That looks fantastic! I did that…’
Who this course is for:
- People who want to develop landscape photos
- People who know the basic of Affinity Photo and want to learn more

Completely different to my rather random workflow and looks really like an effective process.
Alexandra Sharrock –
Thank you for explaining the Hi Pass sharper tool, a much better result than unsharp mask. And how to approach each are as a Zone, as per Ansel Adams. Awesome information
Chuck Horne –
Excellent delivery, and content was relevant to the topic. Thanks Simon, I’m already looking at few more of your courses.
Sandi Edwards –
Excellent so far. I never got to grips with PS but Simon’s courses on Affinity are excellent…..maybe I should have got Simon’s courses on PS….. but I last used PS about 15 years ago!!! Anyway, for me , Affinity os the way to g0
Lester Martin Sizemore –
Simon is both entertaining and an excellent teacher. He has an excellent eye for color and explains its use very well.

As always Simon gives me more than I expected. I find his courses essential to my understanding of the photography and photo editing. Without reservation I wholeheartedly recommend any course he offers.
My thanks and appreciation for the way he can take complex subjects and break them down into pieces that even a 60 year man can comprehend. I am a better photographer and editor for his teaching. I may never be a “professional” but I am a better photographer and editor because of his courses!
Michael J Alter –
Considering that I am a complete novice to digital photo editing, I feel fortunate to have happened upon Mr. Foster’s lectures. I have learned an enormous amount and will retain the lectures for reference.
Nigel Blanchard –
This course hits the spot as far as I am concerned but has to be really combined with either the foundation or from beginner to pro to get the most out of it which with Affinity or any image editing software is necessity IMHO
Howard Fisher –
I felt the course was too long with a lot of self-indulgent waffling by the tutor. The individualk videos were too long and in some cases could be cut by half the time with better structure. Having said that I have learned fom the course but it just felt a struggle to stick with it all through.
Fred Seeber –
Excellent Course but it did drag a little on the section of Nik colour effects pro
David Newbold –
Simon does a great job at presenting in a logical sequence building upon skills the farther into the session you go. He has a somewhat conversational presentation style that I find to be engaging and effective for holding the viewer’s interest.
Clive Russ –
Intense, and excellent. Knowing what the editing tools do is important, but knowing how and when to apply them is invaluable. Simon held my attention to the last second.
