    The colors in the water Saturday evening were beautiful. I have another straight version of this and the colors are more muted but on this I used Topaz Clean Crisp Style blended with Linear Light at a fairly slight opacity. It punched the colors a bit.
    Thanks for looking.

    Cheryl, beautiful colors here..and a wonderful blend of lines, light and shadow on the water. If it were mine, I might brighten or saturate the eye a bit...maybe both...to make it stand out some...wonderfully composed and a deft, subtle touch to the processing. Well done!

    Might have to look into Topaz for my PC, some great styles come from this program. Liking the water ripples around his snout

    Those beautiful swirls and lines of color nearly steal the show. This shows just how well those gators can hide in plain sight!
