  1. Thats great but i wish you would do one where you are getting a perfect result as I want to know what to aim for. I have such trouble with hair and I love taking photos of animals, this combo creates a problem!! haha Thanks for all you wonderful videos you have helped my photoshop growth untold.

  2. Excellent! Can’t wait to try it. Whenever you’d like to spend more time explaining that selection interface, PLEASE, have at it. It’s a major PITA. Sometimes a “+” brush means add sometimes subtract. Vice versa for a “-“ bush. What was Adobe thinking, or were the thinking at all?

  3. Have been doing print ads for alpacas and dogs for over 25 years.. have used all the old photoshop tools, hours and hours back in the day. The newer tools are a big improvement. Still I nitpick my selections, and often there is SO much in the background that is not a nice soft focus. Fences, trees, other animals, similar colors. But this is always very helpful and thanks so much for sharing!

  4. Thanks for the tip Colin and I don't know if it was you stating this with another tool (getting older sorry) but the person, whoever it was, advised to never let the "+" center of the brush touch the main part of the selection. I like your methodology of keeping the perimeter of the brush as far away from the selection. Thanks again and stay safe!

  5. Thank you Colin! I've struggled with the Refine Edge tool, using it the usual way. I tried your outside method, and the selection is so much better. Going forward, it will be outside selection for me from now on!

  6. Extremely interesting! In the past I think most of us have been taught to let the "AI" in these tools see 50% of subject and 50% of background so it can decide what is best. We may need to un-train ourselves now.

  7. Dear Colin Smith
    Thank you so much for the tutorial. I checked and you are absolutely right. Another great tip for separating fur from the background. Saves further retouching of the brush.
    By the way, I also watched the lessons that took place at the Photoshop Virtual Summit
    Anyway best regards and thanks for sharing
