I enjoyed the tips 2 and 4, they're the kind of tools we've used before but perhaps never considered how different techniques can produce much cleaner results. Tip 5's going to save me some time too. Great job.
Tip number 5 was my fav!! I recently switched from using Elements to PS, so had to learn new ways of combining open files, and it had been very frustrating. This tip was awesome!
I knew about stacking for images that weren't opened but had no idea you could do it with images already opened in Photohshop. Another awesome tutorial!
Thank you for sharing all these valuable tips and tricks👍🏼❤️ One thing could you zoom in when showing details? Smartphone users cannot see what you are doing. Thanks a mill Claudia
I'll definitely be playing with that blur technique - not only for my photos, but my artwork as well. And I like that stack feature and making the grid also. Good stuff as always! 👍
Hey Colin. Thanks for the tips. They are all great but my favorite one is the Fade Unsharp Mask trick. Honestly, I never used the Edit>Fade menu before. That alone justifies a video, wouldn't you agree?
Fade is great, but but is semi-destructive. You can only use it once per filter usage, and CTRL-Z is a one-time "undo". I think you would be better off making a stamp visible layer [CTRL-SHIFT-ALT-E] and sharpening that layer in luminosity mode, or else use the high pass method of the stamp visible layer. That way, you have the option of fill/opacity adjustments, or converting to a smart object for smart filters. It is non-destructive, so if you accidentally over-sharpen or create artifacts, you can just tweak the smart filters and/or opacity settings. You can also apply a layer mask...
My favorite tip was the replace mode for the clone stamp. I have always thought there was something wrong with me or my computer when I was getting the blurring with the clone stamp. Thanks!
Great Video..There are sooo many things in PS that i will never know how to use...Im wondering is there a book or online course that would be all-inclusive for PS detailing what everything does?...
Awesome video, sir I use photoshop and illustrator for many hours with many layers ( huge psd files ), which laptop should I purchase between macbook pro m1 or hp spectre x360 i7 11th gen thanks
I suppose #1 & 2 had been the most useful in the past and would still be very useful for those who need the functionality. IMO, these would be the type of tips/maneuvers that many viewers would benefit from. Not many Instructors present advanced instructions for free these days.

The 5th was my favorite! I am lost at how you selected the layers for alignment. Always great information.
My favorite is number 2, the perspective used with the clone stamp tool. NICE!
I loved the last tip of creating grids the best. All tips were great and will be helpful to me; however.
I liked the blur tips most, thanks Colin!

Brilliant!! Two things I struggled with ~~ Perspective cloning and Progressive Blur. Wonderful tips!

Thanks for this tutorials and tips.
I had no idea that you could save the mask from the Blur Gallery filter (even though it's right there in the context toolbar.) Thank you, Colin.
Colin thanks for the great tips some you have taught us during LFL.
Talking of which see you *Thursday for Live From Lockdown* thanks Colin!
Tip #5 was the best for me.
#5 and it still confuses me just how you did that. I just wish I could remember everything you teach! Love your tutorials!
Great tips Colin, lots of stuff I didn't know 👍
The blur technique is my favourite.. For grids I use LR print module.
The last tip is a brilliant one
The 4th ... thank you Colin :)
Great Video..There are sooo many things in PS that i will never know how to use...Im wondering is there a book or online course that would be all-inclusive for PS detailing what everything does?...

4 closely followed by 5! Great 😊
Keep forgetting about number 5! However, number 4 was favourite!!!

Perspective was best for me
#5 is really useful. Especially if you have a series of pics (focus stacked) and open these from Camera Raw into PS. Great :-)
Tip 3 with Edit>Fade Unsharp Mask - who knew!!
The Perspective Healing. But I also like the rest of the tips.
'All are awesome but Blur one is the best...Thanks
Very nice
Nice
Grid
1 and 2 most useful to me but I use try and get my aged brain to remember all of them
Good, I can do them again next week and you won't know ;)
Nice coin,
