Simulate Darkroom Processes with BW Effects [Sarah]


The BW Effects plugin from Topaz Labs is great way to extend the capabilities of Photoshop.  You may not realize it, but even for purists, there are traditional darkroom processes that can be simulated in software, and with powerful impact. Selenium toning is one of them. Selenium toning can help you to add slightly warm or cool details to your photographs, in the same way the Split-toning panel in Lightroom and other applications can.
Topaz BW Effects provides many options for creating and customizing black and white photos from your digital originals. For this example -published with a little help from my friends at Tipsquirrel.com- we look at how our digital photographs can be enhanced using Selenium toning and other effects.
