Hi Rozzie~
awesome details and fabulous look into your artistic brain!! cool! I have Nix, but the link to Lucias, eh, not so good...sounds like there's a wind of change blowing through that company!
Hum... My Photoshop doesn't have those buttons, but they sure are wonderful buttons. However, it always helps when you start with a good sound image. You did, and this is wonderful.
You know, once in a while, a photo slaps you when you hit the before/after. This is one of those. I really appreciate you taking the time to show us in such detail how you did the processing on these photos.
