Relaxing in the Sun

[Richard Waas]

Topaz just came out with it's new masking program and I think it is a winner. It works as a PS action and is easy and as you can see works great. I removed the bad background and voila. These two images were taken with Canon 40D. ISO 400, f/8.0, 1/320 sec, -0.33 EV, EF100mm f/2.8 Macro, Evaluative Metering, Auto Exposure, Auto WB , No Flash. Comments or questions are certainly welcome.......

Hi Mr. Waas,
I like the composition, image and capture...the details are sharp and the color rendition is good...:cool:

Wonderful detail in the butterfly, even the translucence in the wings is visible. I like the colour combination as well. Will have to look at the masking programme.

Beautiful, love the colors, the detail in the butterfly, the yellow flowers look nice and soft but w/good detail also, Great job and TFS

Very nicely done. Nice and sharp and standout colour combinations. Thanks for posting a comment on the Topaz product, I was wondering about it. Well done, Dave

Richard,

Very handsome image. At first glance I thought the red channel was over the top, but the brilliant colors are part of the image's appeal and I don't see any loss of detail. Nicely done. I saw the e-mail from Topaz and thought ReMask looked interesting. Unfortunately it doesn't support PS Elements. I guess I'll have to graduate to CS4 one of these days.
