Silence of the Lambs

A ewe full of milk will silence most any lamb. I used Topaz 5 Simplify-Buz Sim to create this look. It was a plug in that I had for a trial. The lambs raised hell so I didn't purchase it. So much for their silence.

I like it! Looks like a painting for a day care or something. I find that Buz Sim works great in low doses to take the edge off over sharpened pictures. .08 works best for me.

I don't speak fluent Topazian but I get the gist. I'm rarely a fan of the shots that use any sort of artistic setting except occasionally on flowers.

I'm happy you were finally able to post "That's a Winner". It got my 1st place vote although there were some good challengers.

Tick - I like the water-color sense of this post. (Don't let the lambs tell you how to process your photos - they can be quite baa-d about it.) Thad

It's a really nice shot. I like the spacing of the lambs. Not that they were posed or anything. You know you can reduce the amount of buz-summing before you hit OK, right? Sometimes I move the top slider to the left to get less of an effect. Play with it awhile. Topaz has some really neat stuff.

A nice sleep aid you've provided us with. I keep falling asleep when I hit 17. Odd.
A nice painting effect in your capture, Tick. I'm sure Mary will congratulate you for a job well done. Just watch out that the Blue boy don't come along and spoil the scene with his horn practice. A great job at pulling the wool over our eyes.

Tick, one can even see where your 'painting' stands for, while one has to guess for it with a lot of comtemporary art works. A lot of them have even a far lesser quality level than this one.

Good manip, Owd Fella.

Regards, Cornelius.

You should not listen to their baa, baa, baa and get the plugin and wave it in their faces. If they don't like it, wave the clippers in front of them and point your finger at the loudest one.

LOL at some of the previous comments and your narrative Tick - and the image is a delight as well !

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
