I'd recommend checking out the manual (or tutorial videos) to see what
is possible. Just clicking the presets is only scratching the very
surface of what can be done with Nik Software.
The real power comes in with Selective controls and "Control Points"
(rather than all-image changes). I'd recommend cracking the manual and
reading up on that (or watching some videos where photogs demonstrate
their usage) before tossing it out that fast.
