Discovered Adobe's "Pixel Bender" today and then spent too much time trying to find the proper installer for my version of Photoshop. Apparently it is included in CS6, but I'm using 5.1 with (the confusing) 5.5 Extension manager. The only part of my version of Pixel Bender worth playing with is the "OilPaint" effect.
Anyway, just playing with it on my first couple of images. This is a previous PESO: "Itty Bitty Updraft". You'll want to view it large to see the full effect. If you don't like heavy-handed effects, don't bother looking. :) https://www.flickr.com/photos/pixelsmithy/17177333737/ There is a group for this effect on Flickr. Some of them are quite lovely, in their own right. so this may have potential for some images. -- Life is too short to put up with bad bokeh. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
