    Before and After Example Topaz 2.0.5

    Just to give you an idea of what DeNoise can do I'll submit the following. This is probably not the best example since, 1) I wouldn't consider this shot a "keeper" to begin with, 2) There was practically no post processing done in Adobe Camera Raw and 3) I just took a wild stab at the settings I...

    I've been wanting to experiment with a Tiffen Black Pro-Mist filter for a long time and finally decided to get one. Shelled out for an 82mm (!), 1/4 filter and a set of step-rings so I can use it on all my lenses. I imagine it will look something like this; mainly because this is a product...
