 Add drama to your image |
Create an image where you drastically smooth the image
Create a very smoothed image and mix in a small percentage of the original image.
Create a very detailed image.
Create an image with enhanced or smoothed detail and shifted color patterns by processing each RGB channel separately
Create a dramatic image by using both sliders to emphasize contrast patterns |
| Important: With effects like these it helps to increase the number of Processing Scan Lines to 40. This will eliminate any radial artifacts that could be produced when Lucis–processing with a lower number of Scan Lines. Increasing the number of Scan Lines slows both the preview window operation and Lucis processing. The Preview Scan Lines can remain at a lower value (which keeps the preview window operating faster) as long as you remember that any radial lines that appear in the preview window will not appear in the final processed image. |

Enhancing the image this much brought out every blemish on the skin. So once the image was processed I used the history brush (set to a 10% level) to quickly remove any discolorations on the skin.
