Watching the Visitors

Takes at the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago

I wanted to improve this problematic photo with Topaz Studio 2. I used AI Clean, Precision Contrast, Presiion Detail and Blur. I used the brushes for masking and found they worked better than I had remembered. I wanted the final photo to still look natural.

Nice work …

Great job on the shot and the cleanup. :+1:

Great work on the image. I love the ease of TS-2 to improve images to acceptable quality from bland condition. Thanks for sharing this pretty image Ken.

Your cleanup went very well, nice work.

Very nice improvement …

What everybody said… great job, Ken

Thank you very much for the very nice comments, @AiDon, @Kathy_9, @Buckstop75, @Artisan-West and @BobKramer!

That really did clean it up and give it more oomph! Poor little thing looks really leery about being stared at! Aquarium shots are tough to capture. The processing helped a lot.

Well done!

Thank you very much for the very nice comments, @Fotomaker and @rasmus160

I agree that aquarium shots are very tricky, but the fish and coral are so beautiful…
