Each filter is displayed as a small preview, so you can have an idea on how your image will look. Additionally, you can make some fine adjustments to the applied filter and to the base image.

PhotoDonut also provides a node-based editor, which can help you visualize complex procedures better. You can apply multiple filters, arrange them and connect them in a specific order, just by clicking and dragging their connection points.

Plain images can be transformed into beautiful pieces of art with only a few clicks, when using PhotoDonut.
