[Leica] IMG: Nik Analog Efex Pro 2

[Howard Ritter]

Very interesting efffect, Jim. I’m going to have to download the Nik suite and try it.

BTW, your two equal-size versions of this photo make for a great opportunity to experience a striking effect of the human color-vision system:

1. View the color and the B&W versions one after another so you can instantly alternate between the two using the Back and Forward arrows on your browser.
2. Scroll one or the other of the pictures so that when you alternate between the two with the arrows, the two are exactly in register.
3. Go to the color version and then position your cursor over the arrow that will take you back to the B&W version.
4. Stare intently at a spot in the middle of the color version for 30 seconds.
5. Without moving your gaze point, click your mouse to bring you back to the B&W version. The color inversion is striking.
