Old Fire Engine – Topaz Detail
This afternoon while on my way home from running a few errands in Barrie, Ontario I decided to take one of the backroads home, and am so glad I did as I came across a wonderful old fire engine parked beside a lovely grouping of blue spruce trees. We had a very light dusting of snow last night as well, which helped add another element of interest to the scene. After creating a few quick images I rushed home to play around with the images in some of the various Topaz Labs plug-ins that I have. Above is a quasi-grunge version using Topaz Detail. Below are two alternate renderings using Topaz Impressions and Topaz Black & White Effects 2.
Please remember to click on each of the images to see the larger, sharper versions. Which artistic rendering do you prefer most?
I have decided to change the way I post images to the blog for the coming year. I will go into more detail on what prompted the change soon.
