 |
|
Most of us have that essential Photoshop Plug-In that we cannot do without.
I thought this thread would be of interest to see what the essential plug-in you cannot do without is. This would be informative as to what plug-ins we use but also what others are using to.
My Top 3 IN this order are
3rd Topaz Adjust (Excellent Orton Filters IMO)
2nd Imagenomic Portraiture (Well i am ugly  )
1st Tiffen DFX
The above are almost in constant use and can cover most of my sins...

I used to have hundreds of plugins installed, used about 4.
In no particular order.
1. Nik Color Efex Pro 3
2. Unsharp Mask (built in)
3. Alien Skin Exposure (a good one stop shop for quick edits)

I haven't used any yet...but downloaded the one Lowlight mentioned in another thread..the HDR type thing. I'll have a go with that and maybe upload a few...but I find it hard enough just getting my pics in focus and straight without doing much of anythig else

I do use Lightroom more than anything. Photoshop is mainly used for B&W conversion, sharpening, border script and the occasional filter.

I had wow filters installed at one point in time. I might even give them a try again.
