Topaz Spring sale, 40% off Storewide!

Most of you know that we just love the Topaz plugins! We use Clarity, Adjust and/or Glow on many of our images. We also love Detail, LensEffect, and StarEffects even though we do not use them as much. Remask is awesome for selecting subject and for compositing. heir Noise Reduction plugin is the BEST, it reduces noise just as well as other noise reduction software, but without making the image soft.

Topaz Spring sale, 40% off Storewide!
There's no need for users to enter a coupon, it will automatically be added in their cart to give every purchaser the discount before they confirm their purchase.

From Tuesday April 24th through Monday May 7th, Topaz is offering 40% off STOREWIDE
That's about $200 off the Complete Topaz Plugin Collection and over $100 off of the Go Pro Adjustment Bundle in Studio!

Click here to purchase Topaz Studio 40% off until 5/7

What is the Collection?
With the addition of Topaz Texture Effects 2, Impression 2, and Glow 2, the Complete Collection includes all 17 of our plugin products, which individually would cost over $1000. We normally offer the Complete Collection at 50% off the price of buying the plugins individually. However, until the end of this sale you can take an additional 40% off the Collection and Collection upgrades.

What is a Collection upgrade?
If you've already purchased an individual product (or several products) from Topaz in the past, our system already discounts the collection upgrade price. As long as you're signed into your account, you can get an additional 40% off your custom collection upgrade pricing through the end of the Spring sale. Whether you're just starting or looking to expand your collection, there is never a better time to buy!

Suggested Night and Light Painting Gear:

• Cable release (if you have a wired and a wireless cable release bring both as this is the piece of equipment most likely to fail and you want it for the 30 second to five minute exposures
• Red flashlight https://amzn.to/2H0vdkf or red headlamp https://amzn.to/2JmtV1h (preserve your night vision while walking or changing your camera settings)
• Flashlight for light painting (try to get one that does not have a hotspot in the center https://amzn.to/2JoA2lx) or a flashlight with colors can be fun https://amzn.to/2q8lJcW or https://amzn.to/2IvzfxZ

• Come and light paint with us! Light Painting is fun and creates some images with saturated colors and interesting shadows...

This image (top) was flat light from the camera, 

while the bottom was the same light but from the side. 

Come and learn to light paint -- and have fun!
