    Really gives a 3D look to the picture Peter. Is this similar to HDR?

  • Peter Hill replied

    Hi Crispin, yes Topaz Labs market their Topaz Adjust plug-in as giving “HDR-like” results, but without the layering. This process resides within the Filter menu and can be applied with enormous variance in a single application. I am currently using their free 30-day trial version.

    Looks great Peter. I’ve never heard of Topaz adjust.

  • Peter Hill replied

    Thanks Gail. I stumbled onto this process only recently. It’s a little application you download and it automatically slots into Photoshop as another choice on the Filters menu. I am using the free 30-day trial version

    amazing depth & tones

  • Peter Hill replied

    thanks. The owner of the cottage (who coincidentally found and bought this image while Googling her cottage) had put a LOT of effort into renovating this period house, so this photograph was basically waiting patiently to be shot.

    Peter this is amazing…the amount of detail you’ve captured in all the various areas is brilliant. Great HDR treatment too.

  • Peter Hill replied

    thank you Wendi. The HDR is lookalike, not actual. Effect was created in Topaz Adjust with a single image.

    The glowing colurs in this are exceptional, was it shot in HDR? I love how peaceful and calm this setting is

  • Peter Hill replied

    Hi Ana. No, this was shot with a P&S camera, albeit a good one until it stopped working. The effect was achieved in Photoshop using a plug-in called Topaz Adjust. Some fo the presets, including one I applied to this image, replicate the HDR effect.
