Topaz Glow Intro Offer - $49.99 - Creative Photoshop Plugin

Topaz Glow is a technology that Topaz has been working on for a while. They have received many requests from Mac users who want to use Redfields Fractalius plugin (only Windows-compatible). There have also been requests for them to expand upon Topaz Cleans curly effects. Since Clean's technology is very different than the technology needed to create fractal images, they decided to start developing Glow. You can get Glow for $49.99 at the Topaz site during a brief intro pricing deal.

Glow

This technology further broadens the scope of possibilities and solves the need for Mac users. Topaz has crafted many beautiful and interesting effects such as:
Neon looks
Topa Glow Special Deal Discount Fractal effects
Line designs
Subtle glow effects

While its more of a niche product when used at full strength, applying the effects lightly can add some beautiful softness and light to your image.

Take your art beyond photorealism. Whether you're shooting people, landscapes, wildlife, or something else, Topaz Glow will make your images come to life with a powerful sense of movement and flow.

"I have been waiting for software like Glow for a long time. The possibilities are limitless, from subtle background enhancements to an electrifying 'wow' look with fractal and neon effects."

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom - Who Needs It?

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Version 1.1 ReleasedIf you have managed to live without Photoshop Lightroom up until now, what makes it so fantabulous/damned hot that you need to place it at the top of your software wish list? Read Adobe Photoshop Lightroom - Who Needs It? by Mark Galer for some thoughts on Lightroom's top features. From the intro:

Photoshop Lightroom has had somewhat of an identity crisis amongst the general population of photographers since its release in early 2007. The Adobe engineers built it to fill a gap in the Photoshop family of products (Photoshop CS3 and Photoshop Elements being the other two family members) but many amongst the photographic community have not been able to identify its primary task to make it the must have product that Adobe hoped it would become for all digital photographers.

How To Sharpen An Image In Photoshop — Advanced Sharpening Techniques
How To Sharpen An Image In Photoshop — Advanced Sharpening TechniquesThe best sharpening techniques are those that prioritize the important areas for sharpening and leave the smoother areas of the image well alone, e.g. sharpening the eyes of a portrait but avoiding the skin texture. These advanced techniques are essential when sharpening images that have been scanned from film or have excessive noise, neither of which needs accentuating by the Unsharp Mask. So let the project begin.
