Brand new for art rock band, The Erasmusbrugs 🎸 Building Bridges. If they existed, I'm sure they'd use this for their artwork 🤣 The Erasmusbrug edition of the kaleidoscopic photography series (Rotterdam 🇳🇱). #blackandwhite #monochrome #music #vinyl #art #artwork #photography

Sigh 😔 Can't even cancel my Adobe Stock subscription without having to pay. I think I'm fully done with their bullshit after this. Corporate greed and creativity don't belong in the same sentence 🚫 #adobe #design #graphicdesign #art #illustration #photography

Thoughts on Canva AI in Affinity 🧐 Most Affinity users aren't keen on AI. I hear you. But without veering too far into generative territory, some of the Canva add-ons are well worth a look 👀 mikehindle.uk/thoughts-on-... #affinity #photography #art #design #illustration #canva #ai #blog #writing

Cringe 😬 This morning's project was photographing this awkward buffoon 🤣 I'm writing a blog on the Canva AI tools in Affinity. Here I used background removal and portrait lighting. Plenty of other useful bits in there too. Happy weekend ☕️☀️ #blackandwhite #monochrome #photography #affinity

What a rainy old Friday that was 🌧️🌧️🌧️ Home. Dry. Tea. Music. Belle and Sebastian - Girls in Peacetime Want to Dance (2015). Aaaaaaaand relax... #nowplaying #music #blackandwhite #monochrome #photography #artwork #design

Doing what I'd always done stopped working 📉 So I made some fairly significant changes to my business website's SEO strategy. 3 switcheroos and one big lesson - trying too hard at SEO is bad for SEO 🚫 mikehindle.uk/reframing-se... #seo #business #marketing #blog #writing #smallbusiness #wordpress

Please do not use "AI-slop" to illustrate your articles or presentations. If you need images and have none just use one of the free stock image sites. It's not harder and doesn't make you look like a dumbass.

Officially recommending Affinity to all of our commercial print clients at Leaflet Lion now. So much better than the tools they currently use (usually a free Canva account or Microsoft Publisher). #affinity #print #design #graphicdesign #art #artwork

Another one that would work pretty well as an album cover 🖤 My kaleidoscopic rendition of The Shard, London 🇬🇧 #blackandwhite #monochrome #architecture #photography #london #vinyl

One of my first ever Fleeting Reflections photos. This is exactly how it appeared on the camera. It reminded me instantly of the artwork on Joy Division’s Unknown Pleasures album cover. No photoshop involved.

One of the best video tutorials I've seen on the Pixel studio (the equivalent of Photoshop) in the new Affinity app. Recommended viewing for any photographers/designer/artists. www.youtube.com/live/yP-eWYs... #affinity #photography #art #digitalart #design #graphicdesign #illustration #adobe
