Split-toned Succulent
I like the split-tone effect a lot but haven't done much of it so I'm liking this theme already! This is a succulent flower from my front yard. I thought it would make a good subject for this treatment. Made "from scratch" in CS5 - converted to b&w, then adjusted h/s differently for highlights and shadows. Added a blur vignette and, wait for it...Topaz Clean!

Pretty cool work Kerry, my eyes are drawn from the bottom to the center....ice way to start off the theme...TFS
Nice one Kerry, I like the effect. The blur vignette looks good.
very nice, Kerry. Is the blur vignette something in CS5?
Cheryl, although this can be done using Photoshop techniques, I used the Nik Color Efex Pro filter for this one.

Really nice, Kerry. I like the blur vignette particularly.
Looks great Kerry! I like the colors and the blur vignette. I usually do split toning in Lightroom. I haven't had Nik very long but will try it.
Kerry, I love this one. The color and the filtering are very nice!
Beautiful work. The original image is lovely, nicely composed. The tones you chose go well with this succulent.
