Curtain Call in the Galapagos-Topaz
I posted the original in landscape but wanted to see what i could do with Topaz simplify and see what the folks here think. The water and sky seemed to be most effected by the Buzz zim filter. I also used Color efex tonal contrast. This shot was taken from a zodiac inflatable when the sky just lit up

Breathtaking.....beautiful, beautiful image Bob. My one suggestion would be to tone down the highlight on the sea lion's back just a bit....other than that....wouldn't change a thing. You nailed the composition and the processing. Outstanding.
Lovely work all around, the colors, effect and composition rock...very nice
Really well done, Bob. The colors are gorgeous and the silhouette is perfect for the image. He looks like he is greeting the dawn. I find it a very peaceful image.

Very nicely done, Bob! Great composition, and the light & colors of the sky is just amazing. I think you did a great job with both versions.
Bob, Nicely seen. I like the placement of the sea lion in the scene and the silhouette look works nicely. Colors in the sky are amazing.
