Well Christmas is over and only the New Year celebrations left to get through before I start getting back to my photography… And boy was Santa a good Santa this year… I did get my soft-box and a new 24mm Pancake Lens and an extension tube for my camera… plus Topaz Impression plug-in.
As many of you have read… no way can I get the Oil Paint Filter in Photoshop to work on my desktop PC no matter whatever I try and I do like playing around with this filter… so hubby treated my to Topaz Impression which gives you many styles of painting effects. Again this plugin is compatible with both Photoshop and Lightroom and the above photograph was created using the Photoshop and Topaz Impression
This photograph was created primarily in Lightroom with Topaz Impression being used to give it a painterly look.

I am loving this new plugin and there is a lot of learn and many things you can do to a photograph and again you have the great opportunity to be able to download presets from the Topaz Community.
