    Can you do a short clip showing how to use the gradient tool for the ground fade? Anytime i try to use it it just puts a grey tint over everything that I did not originally black out. Thanks!

    @@daslunaproductions3020 I was also having this problem and I figured out I had clicked the black to white gradient, instead you need to make sure you are selecting black to transparent gradient. It immediately fixed the problem instead of making everything bright and grey.

    I’m struggling with the gradient tool. It won’t fade down past the rectangular box of black. It’s only staying within the box. What am I doing wrong?

    What lens do you use for horses? If you photograph the head/neck vs whole body do you use the same lens?

    Its not necessarily supposed to be taken in a a stall/stables corridor. It is simply a glamour shot of the animal... same as if a person was in a studio setting.

    Im about to lose my mind with part of this. LOL I am not on a Mac so perhaps this is the issue? When I use the rectangular tool to make the black box, I cannot get the gradient tool to work to smooth the transition lines. I cant figure out whats happening.... Im using windows.
