Playing around with Nik Colour. This is a filter called Duplex - Strong Saturated Yellow

That's a nice shot, Rob. I like the rich tones of the brown and yellow. Nice compo, too.

Is that tghe case for the X-100?

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Yes, it is. And very nice it is too. Cheers, Brian

nik has some great filters, reflector effects is one of my faves. haven't played too much with duplex, looks pretty good though.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Don't know why it is called Duplex. It makes some images look decidedly odd, but seems to work quite sympathetically for this subject. Haven't used the reflector effects yet, Beth, but will give them a try.

Duplex is also the name of a class of stainless steels that I still have nightmares about

 

[Pete Askew]

Now that is very nice Rob. Not played with Duplex either I don't think but will have to have a look given the wonderful result you have achieved here. Mind the arrangement, cleanness and composition are good to start with anyway.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Pete. I was surprised and delighted with the result this time, but usually pass it by. Will try it with other images to see if I can find similarities in good results.

Works to give a vintage color palette in this case Rob, but fully saturated instead of faded.

NIK Color is great - so many options, so little time!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Too true.

I'm with Beth on this one. I've never used the Duplex because it's made the preview of some images look decidedly odd. I could never figure out what it was meant to do. I do love what it has done here though - you've picked the perfect subject Rob. Do try the reflector filters though. They can work magic

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Lesley! Will do.
