Fantastic tutorial! Clearly differentiated between manual & AI tools; great examples of using both of them, in proper sequence, for professional results. Also, the demonstrations of proper use of the Clone Stamp tool are much appreciated. I have struggled so much with this tool over the years; so avoided it. Not anymore. Thx, Peter
Been away from photoshop for a while. Great tutorial! Easy to understand and a good combination of what is new and refresh the prior to AI tools.
