Wandering Around Calgary

Postby fredsheppard » Mon Mar 15, 2010 9:25 am

I just got a new toy from the Topaz people called Simpifily
I t creates better art than Topaz Adjust
What I have done in most of these pictures to create the effect is to process them in Topaz Adjust
first then apply the history brush in photoshop to the sky'to bring the sky back to normal .
Then I RE: process the picture with Simpifily which produces some very artistic results at times.
The only shots that were not processed with Topaz was the one of the 1931 Cord Car and the moon light shot near the end of the video. These shots were produced with some of the photoshop tools.
I removed the guard rails with photoshop and did some slective bluring with Photo Shop for the 1931 cord.

Very nice show! I really like the artistic touch you brought to these shots, but I have a feeling those were great photos before you ever brought them into an editor.

Very nicely done! I'll have to take a look at Topaz Simplify.

Oh, and I thought the music was great as well. Can you tell us what it was?

Great show! Nice use of the Topaz products, not over done, very artistic. I really liked the effect on the stone buldings and bringing back the normal sky is a nice touch. Good job.

I love the "painterly" effects a person can get with such filters. I agree with Dan about the fact that it wasn't overdone. Now you've gotten me interested, and I have to go check out that filter. :D
