This Thursday, Tony Sweet has presented his latest work, shared his techniques at Baltimore Camera Club. He uses Topaz and Alien Skin plugins a lot, and I decided to give them a try.
I was very much satisfied by the first experiences I had. I've created a new photo album on my Facebook page: http://tinyurl.com/yggs9zm and hope people will like the results, too.
Topaz Adjust has a lot of settings to use to adjust ;) the photos, and, more importantly to me, it has
an ability to save the settings under your own name, which saves a lot of time when processing similar
images, and allows to reuse your settings whenever you want (just be specific enough when naming new settings, so that you recognize them later). The sharpening algorithm works very well, and does not
increase the noise too much (or at all?).
Alien Skin Watercolor effect is amazing and has a lot of presets and controls to adjust the image as you wish. I still have to figure out if I can add my own textures to the tool.
The blog is dedicated to fine photography and the beauty of nature. I share my experience, thoughts and everyday events with everybody who loves nature, people and arts. I invite everybody to comment, ask questions, add your thoughts and concerns about every aspect of the theme.
