AB Friday Week (Tree Branches and clouds) and Flower of the Day
After
Using both Lightroom and Efex Pro Color, I was able to increase the lighting which made the clouds look a little dramatic. I had clicked dozens of times between the Lr and a few of filters of the Efex Pro Color.
Before
Ben said, “This week I wanted just to let my hair down and experiment. Usually i have an outcome in mind when I start experimenting, this week however I just started playing and went down the rabbit hole.” Truly an awesome transformation! Visit Ben’s ABF.

Both images are really nice because well composed. The after image is certainly a bit more dramatic…(Suzanne)

Love your transformation. I just go with my instincts as to how an image will turn out. I look at it and see what I want it to end up like and then play around with filters. I have now got the Topaz textures and they are amazing. I love the grunge feel anyway and want to tap into my artistic self.
Your flower macro is brilliant. Love it.
