Creating a Blurred Background in Affinity by Canva (PC version) on a RAW photo?
Hi all, I'm very new to editing photos and I've been using Affinity purely because it is free and I already use it to create basic vector programs for my stained glass hobby. I have figured out how to create a mask but not how to create a blurred background in RAW editing (Ideally don't want to develop the image to add the blur so I can still use the RAW data to edit further if I need to).
The image in question is a Hare I stumbled upon on a walk in local farmer fields. I was just about to put my camera away when it ran in front of me! Unfortunately I had a bit of watermark of my camera lens and it has created a slight distortion and noise above the Hare and I like the blurred background look so I would really like to learn this skill.
Please don't tell me to just use AI, I avoid any use of AI in my creative hobbies.
