Yes, i have the impression too. Lots of tools that are good but never perfect ;) I guess we need to keep buying them to get a good mix of the best qualities.

2018-08-19 14:47:29 +0000 UTCI have been using Luminar for quite awhile, and really like it. But I find that no single software (so far) is the best at everything. For example, I find that Paint Shop Pro works best for background removal and sky replacement, while I like Luminar for light adjustment and sun rays. For adding light rays like your recent tutorial, I thing Affinity Photo is the best option. Here are two pictures, the first out of the camera, the second edited in Luminar. (community page)

2018-08-15 16:34:59 +0000 UTCThank you for this. It is a good idea to keep an eye on what other image processing software can do for us. I’ve begun teaching myself how to use Affinity Designer. I’m not sure where I will go with it, but I’m finally learning to use the pen tool (something I’ve avoided, up to now).
