One of the first plug ins I had to try with practically every image was Glowing Edges(years ago) and then there was Poster Edges, then Flaming Pear's Flood (3 or 4 years ago). Nowadays its Topaz Adjust and Topaz Simplify. Here is a scene shot not to long ago with a wide angle lens. Topaz Adjust was used. For some reason I really like looking at it, so I thought you guys might as well. regards~Bill

Bill, I understand what you mean-I turned everything into liquid at one point! I think the sand is cool!-The colors are definitely Topaz. At first I thought you put your sig. into the log at bottom right to make it look like it was carved in-Then I realized I was wrong-but I was thinking maybe you should do that it would add to the scene.

Like it Bill. Has a surreal feel to it.

I think the reason you're so drawn to it is that the colors are so pleasing and there is a tremendous amount of texture to view - I think that helps keep one's eyes in the frame as they go from place to place looking at what is next...

It's a lovely image - very surreal and yet "real" at the same time.
