 Pamela Summers demonstrates the Asian art of Raku. Here she cleans the piece after it is finsihed. cliffhousestudio.com

Original version output from Canon DPP:


Used some modest Topaz adjust to bring out some of the motion from the right hand, Topaz Infoucus to attempt to clean up the slightly soft left hand from the longish exposure, and Topaz Detail to adjust the colors to make the pot pop a little more.

I like how Topaz brought out the detail in the motion blur. I like hot the art piece pops now too.

This reminds me of the old time hustlers playing the "shell" game on street corners. I'll have to google Raku and see what it is. Nice work!

Great explanation of why you used each application. Truly appreciated. Great eye as well to see the potential here.

Thanks for showing. I can see a difference. I'm finding it hard to work out how to get the best out of it, too.

No, but I've seen some other do amazing fixes with it. I think I just haven't learned how to best use it yet, or I'm using it on images that just don't respond well.

I'd like to see the original for comparison. Did you find that infocus made much of a difference?
