I've been searching through my files, looking for images that might produce interesting images with the Topaz filters. It's interesting in that I've found that some of my earlier images that weren't as sharp per my standards of today work very well with the filters. This image has always been a favorite of mine. It's a pretty good crop from my old Canon 1D and a 2XTC. I ran it through the Topaz Clean2 filter and then the Topaz Adjust3. Again....I just kept playing back and forth until I got what I thought was acceptable. It's still a struggle to decide where to draw the line for each effect and thus get either a more realistic image or one that is obviously digitally manipulated.

This is exquisite Lana, the colours, pose, and the framing. Topaz Clean really made a wonderful image out of this.
