For this week’s edit, I am editing a landscape image in Pixelmator Pro.
It’s different to the previous editors used as it’s a pixel editor with a layer based workflow, like Adobe Photoshop. So, not the best for bulk editing, but a very interesting and intuitive modern editor.
Mac only, it costs $49.99 (once off).
The image for this week was made in Greece, during our holiday last summer on the island of Corfu - highly recommended!
And yes, I still suck at keeping the video’s short, apologies.
I’ll keep trying.
Let’s go!
