Nik Software Part I

This month we concentrated on the Nik software, which is now free to download. First from Ann, some examples  before and after using Silver Efex software and Viveza. The piano and the Burghley House images show a conversion from Raw and then one done with Silver Efex to demonstrate the additional detail that can be extracted.



Ian brought along a lot of before and after images. The first ones with Silver Efex, the later ones with combinations of HDR Efex, and various filters from Silver Efex such as Glamour glow, Detail extractor etc










Jonathan similarly uses a range of filters from Color efex as well as Silver Efex and will combine layers with the filters at different opacities. The last one was from an old jpeg just to see what could be done with such a file.
Chris brought a garden image where he had the colour version, an infrared camera version and conversions from Raw and using Silver Efex and the Yew tree where he had used HDR Efex on the infrared file. The Highjumper had had Viveza and Color Efex.
