At the Venetian Resort on Las Vegas. Topaz Adjust, not a preset (but I did not write down the settings, sorry).

I really like the warm tones in this - the reds and yellows. I suspect the Topaz enhanced those for you.

I thought this might have really been Venice (where I'm heading next week to start a cruise!!!). The texture really comes out on this processing. This was probably a difficult lighting situation,and you did well. If you find a setting you really like make sure to save it. I often get a good customized preset and then for the rest of the shoot most shots I can just select the first item under Filter and it will repeat the same processing. If it doesn't work then I undo it and go into TA to tweak it.

Nice details and really Old World feel to this.

i like the warm rich lighting and the details in the background behind the man - i would just look at whether you can fix the almost overly noisy skin on the main character

I like the gentle indoor lighting, and the local contrasts to very dark.

I love the scene and his expression. The only thing you have to watch out for is that Topaz tends to make people yellow lol. I also recommend that when you have a person in the photo, do a noise reduction run on the original before you topaz it - you'll see quite a difference!

It fits right in with the whole feel you get when you walk into that resort.

I'm totally digging this one. I especially love all the enhanced reflections everywhere. Nicely done!

Gives it a lot of pop, but still looks natural. I might not have recognized this as Topaz, though I would have recognized some tweaking went into it.

ROFL @ his expression! Great job with the processing, whatever it is!
