I played around a little with Topaz Adjust on these - really like that program! Happy Sunday :-)

1. Wonderfully rich color.
I'm not familiar with Topaz. Whatzit?

2. it's a plug in for Photoshop or Irfanview or other photo editing software
check out topazlabs.com - you can get a 30-day free trial. There are several types but I'm using Adjust.

4. I like both of these a lot.
The animals look so much like a part of the background, chameleon fashion. Very natural and integrated.
The photos don't look manipulated in any way. I'll take a look at that program, that's really interesting. All I know is Picasa. And I keep saying I'm going to learn photo shop.

6. thanks!
the program is pretty cool, there are effects presets that very easy to use, along with more ability for adjustment. I did minimal enhancement to these, but it did make them pop :-)
