Fun With Topaz Labs Adjust

January 10, 2011 By Leave a Comment

Topaz Labs Adjust

Topaz Labs Adjust 4 is a Pho­to­shop plug-in. It also works with Light­room, Aper­ture and oth­ers pro­grams. Adjust is pow­er­ful expo­sure, detail, color and noise adjust­ment fil­ter. You can cre­ate HDR like pho­tos from a sin­gle photo. Adjust can also turn a plain photo into a stun­ning fine art photo in just min­utes. You are only lim­ited by your own imag­i­na­tion. Once you have cre­ated what you like, you can save the set­tings as a pre­set for your future work. I like Topaz Labs Adjust  4 for its abil­ity to bring back the color, detail and expo­sure to what I saw when I first pho­tographed an object. I also used Adobe Light­room for some minor final adjust­ments. I can highly rec­om­mend Topaz Labs Adjust and all the other plug-ins in the Topaz Labs bun­dle. I use them all. The Video below has some exam­ples of before and after pho­tos using Topaz Labs Adjust 4.

Fun with Topaz Labs Simplify 2

February 11, 2010 By 2 Comments

The pic­tures in this slide show are not paint­ings, they are pho­tographs! These pho­tographs are processed with a Pho­to­shop plu­gin called Sim­plify 2 by Topaz Labs. This is a sam­ple of what you can do with this pro­gram. It will remove detail from pho­tographs and make them look like a paint­ing or a car­toon and even a line draw­ing rep­re­sen­ta­tion of a photograph.

The Hoodoos of Colorado Springs

December 28, 2009 By 2 Comments

Hoodoos are a strange geo­log­i­cal rock for­ma­tion found mainly in Bryce Canyon National Park, Col­orado and the Bad­lands of South Dakota. Their for­ma­tion con­sist of  dif­fer­ent lay­ers of hard and soft sed­i­men­tary rock. Gen­er­ally the hard lay­ers being on top, ero­sion of the softer lay­ers of rock gives them their strange unusual chim­ney or mush­room  shapes. The size of the Hoodoos in the gallery range from a cou­ple feet  to about 50 feet and are located in Wood­man Val­ley Park in Col­orado Springs.  One of for­ma­tions in the area is called the Dutch Wed­ding Rock, which is not access­able due to being on pri­vate land. Hoodoos in Bryce Canyon National Park can be more than 100 feet tall.
