I have been using a review copy of the Topaz Photoshop Bundle in preperation for an interview I’m doing with Eric Yang their marketing manager. To say that I’m impressed with this $179 bundle of photographic joy would be an understatement.

You will here more during the interview but here is one simple example that literally took 10 minutes from start to finish to do. The picture on the left was shot at the Petersen Automotive Museum the very first time I used my Canon Power shot G11 point and shoot.  The picture on top was shot as a JPG not RAW picture. The picture on the bottom was put through just two of the Topaz Photoshop Bundle (Topaz Adjust and Topaz DeNoise).

As you can see the Topaz FX is dramatic and very inspiring to me. Not only did the Topaz DeNoise remove the noise, but using Topaz Adjust with an out of the box smooth preset, I was able to a silky smooth look that goes well with the subject. Look for more in the month of February and the interview with Topaz. Bottom line I highly recommend these products after using them in the last few weeks.

Tim Verpoortenn (@Surfbits on Twitter) tweeted about these 50 neat pictures , and that inspired me to try this technique called Out of Bounds Photography . I found this tutorial and spent the afternoon trying this out. Yes another way to express pictures. I love stuff  like this.

Another example I’m very proud of but , it took about 2 hrs to do.

A few listeners wanted me to show how I go about processing an image. This is a pretty typical example, this time using Adobe Camera Raw (but I also use Adobe Lightroom). Hope you enjoy it.
