I took this at the beach recently and wanted to do a blur but didn't have any filters with me and I couldn't get a very slow shutter speed. I used a slight Gaussian blur, Topaz Buz Sim, Portrait Smooth and Mild Color then dup layer with a multiply blend and finally a Vibrance layer. I loved the turquoise colors in the original image but the colors were very muted and I wanted to bring them out.
Thanks for looking. Comments and suggestions appreciated.:S3:
Very nice effect. I love buz stim...Thanks for sharing your process.
Looks like a water color. Fine job. Should make a beautiful canvas print.
Cheryl, Lovely piece of art you have created. I like the soft color palette and the wave curl.
Cheryl.....very nice watercolor feel to this!
Hey Cheryl,
Great tones and colors! The effect is fantastic too! The pano crop suits the image .....so works great overall for me!
Cheryl, I love the soft colors. Love the comp, wave, and overall balance. This is very, very nice.
Thanks everyone for your comments. They are much appreciated:S3:
Cheryl, I really like this image...it reminds me of a trip I took to Sanibel years ago. The pastel treatment of colors and softness are wonderful...a serene image.
