There has also been almost zero loss of detail in the bird’s feathers. You can see straight away that the noise has been all but removed from this image, there is hardly a trace left in the background, eye or beak. Topaz DeNoise AIġ00% crop of Yellow Robin photo processed by Topaz Denoise AI software. You will need to zoom into the image if your monitor is less than 1600px wide. In order to see the differences in noise reduction the images below should be viewed at 100%. If you want you can skip straight to the conclusion. I have also included some comments around what I think of each results. I have listed the results below in order from best to worst. There are fine details in the bird’s feathers that are important to retain. This image was taken at ISO4500 on a Nikon D750 and the exposure pushed slightly higher in post-processing which exacerbated the noise even further. The 100% crop from the above image I used when judging (no sharpening or noise reduction applied): 100% Crop of Yellow Robin photo with no sharpening or noise reduction applied The full image I used in the tests is as follows: If the software included a function to sharpen the image I used it in conjunction with the noise reduction to produce the best image possible. The aim is to produce an image that retains an acceptable level of detail and then compare the noise levels. In each application I have adjusted any available settings to get what I think is the best compromise between noise reduction and detail retention. The RAW images were matched in processing as closely as I could to ensure things were as ‘fair’ as possible, but due to the different demosaicing engines there will be subtle differences between the RAW images. In order to maximise the results each application is capable of, I worked on RAW images in the applications that supported them and 16-bit converted (with zero noise reduction applied) TIFF images in the other applications. Test Images and Setupįor the test I have chosen an image that shows a significant amount of noise and also has fine detail that needs to be preserved. My experience with this software has been nothing short of amazing and I wanted to test it against other well regarded noise reduction software. If you want to learn more you can check out DeNoise AI at the Topaz Labs website. Time well worth it to clean up noisy images in my opinion. On my 2018 MacBook Pro with a Radeon Vega 64 graphics card connected via an eGPU, a 24 megapixel image takes around 30-40 seconds to fully process. The downside to the software that runs off AI is that it requires quite a bit of processing power (or time) to process an image. It then uses these models to analyse your photo and produce the best noise-free image it can. The software has been fed many thousands of images in order to be trained on what a ‘good’ image looks like vs a bad one. Topaz Denoise AI uses a machine learning algorithm in order to learn the difference between unwanted noise and important image details. Noise reduction works differently in each application, but basically it has to isolate the noise from the actual image data and reduce it’s appearance by replacing or blending the noise data to match the actual image.īad noise reduction software will often have trouble separating actual image detail from the noise and will end up blurring or removing important parts of the image in the process of noise reduction. Noise reduction software aims to reduce the amount of noise present in the image while retaining the detail in the important parts of your image. Even some low ISO photos can exhibit high noise levels if they are highly processed in Photoshop (or similar). However, as ISO values increase, this noise can become problematic and start to negatively affect the look of a photo. At moderate values the noise is usually not objectionable and will likely not be visible on a standard sized printed image or if the image is downsized for web use. This amplification makes your image brighter, but also amplifies digital noise. If you’re already familiar with noise reduction software you can skip this and the next section and go directly to the test results.Īs you increase the ISO values on your camera the signal (light) that is captured is amplified. My experience with Topaz Denoise AI has been nothing but positive so I thought I would compare it to the other noise reduction software currently available.Ĭheck out Topaz DeNoise Now What does noise reduction software do? Topaz Labs have recently introduced a suite of artificial intelligence (AI) powered post processing software to help photographers get the most from their images.

Then in a blender add in your cream cheese, cherries, cold water and vanilla. Start by taking your Jello and placing it in a bowl with boiling water. The cream cheese offers a rich and velvety flavor that is irresistible. Just cover and place in the freezer until you are ready to enjoy.įor my cherry mousse, I used a cherry Jello, whipped cream, cream cheese and a handful of other ingredients. Some people prefer a frozen mousse as it offers a texture similar to ice cream. I find it adds incredible to the mousse and helps give it that set up texture you want when it comes to mousse. I used a cherry Jello for my mousse recipe. Then when you are ready to serve, top with whipped cream, fresh cherry or serve plain. Just prepare as directed, pour into containers, cover, and store in the fridge. Can I Make Mousse Ahead of TimeĪbsolutely! Because this cherry mousse has to set up, it is a great recipe to make ahead! You can make this up to a day in advance. No-bake desserts are great for summer because who feels like baking in the heat? Definitely not me. It will come out light and fluffy after it sits in the fridge for a couple of hours.Ĭraving more mousse recipes? Try my Lemon Cheesecake Mousse and Strawberry Mousse. It looks a little soupy when you pour the mixture into the dessert dishes. The blender and fridge does most of the work. This recipe uses 1 cup of chopped cherries (yes, the pits were removed and not with my mouth!), cherry Jello, cream cheese and Cool Whip. Do You Use Real Cherries in this Cherry Mousse Recipe Next, refrigerate the whipped cream cherry salad until it’s time to serve.By subscribing, I consent to receiving emails. Give the fluff salad a good mix to combine all the ingredients. To make this cool cherry summer dessert, combine the pineapple chunks, cherry pie filling, marshmallows, sweetened condensed milk, whipped cream topping, and almond extract to a bowl. That way, the juices have time to soak into the marshmallows and expand. It doesn’t require hours of refrigeration or need time to rest, however, I like to give it at least an hour of resting time. This refreshing summer dessert salad can be made the same day its served. HOW TO SERVE CHERRY FLUFF SALADĬherry fluff salad is the perfect side dish or dessert to serve for a potluck, summer party or barbecue with friends. This is the perfect recipe to use those fresh summer cherries in. My mom is big into canning her own summer berries to make desserts with later during the year. Since cherry season is typically during the summer months, feel free to use your own homemade cherry pie filling in place of store-bought pill filling. It can also be referred to as a sugar salad (in the south), cherry angel salad, cherry dump salad, and a cherry pie filling dessert. Because it’s a no-bake potluck dessert that’s served cold, it’s refreshing on a hot summer night. It is a popular cool whip dessert that can be made for Mother’s Day, Easter, Thanksgiving, 4th of July, and Christmas. Typically served as an American dessert, cherry fluff salad is another type of no-bake summer dessert that’s a twist on the classic Ambrosia Salad that’s been around for generations in the United States. We’re just a few weeks away from the start of summer and the potluck season will officially be here. So, join best mate Fred and head off to work at the Slate Rock and Gravel Company quarry.

I am still loosing the toolboxes every now and then, but otherwise the menu's do what they say that they do, inclunding the opening of new toolboxes. In my eyes, the Gimp UI is not a problem. Yeah, yeah, we know what the acronym stands for, but we all refer to it as GIMP, which *is* an insulting term. I admit that the UI could definitely use a lot of work and that it needs a name change. Or use the Layers & History box: IIRC 'history' is the second tab from the left once it's selected, you can step backwards through every action you've taken. Draw (or erase) a straight line: select the brush or pencil and a size, then click at the starting point on the image, hold down the SHIFT key and click around the endpoint (as long as you don't release the SHIFT key you can readjust it). Choose a brush/pencil size: select the shape in the tool box, then tweak the "size" control beneath it or use the keys to increase/decrease size. To respond to some of the things mentioned in this thread: I believe GIMP's UI is fairly similar to that old version of Photoshop - I know that when I tried using a recent CS edition, I was frustratingly lost due to the UI changes. I'm only moderately technically-oriented, learned Photoshop up through an advanced (class) level about 17 years ago (last version prior to the "CS" junk), but had little trouble switching to GIMP in 2008. You have to do the same with Photoshop if you've not used it before, why not give Gimp the same chance?Īnd on the name, come on are you really going to complain about the name! Come on, lots of things have names that don't specify exactly what they do. You just have to take the time to learn it. 6 months on and when I use Photoshop I find myself thinking "This is easier in Gimp", of course there are also times when I think, "Photoshop is better at this" and hope that Gimp catches on but they are not as numerous as you'd think.įrom my rant, just take it as I really like Gimp a lot now when I would only use Photoshop 6 months ago. Learning the different way layers work, the UI etc. So I went back to try Gimp, to start with it is a sharp learning curve because yes, it's different than Photoshop and looks at things from a different perspective. I needed Photoshop 6 months ago but was unwilling to go their subscription model. Sort of how the win10 start menu was intended, but failed miserably to do.Ĭome on, it's just learning a different way of doing things. It shouldn't require an internet connection. Given that a lot of these functions are called the same, but are in different menus, a search/help system where you could type in the name would be amazingly useful. When you spend longer googling "How do I do x in y software" than actually doing it, there is a problem. Is it a tool? a plugin? Will be next to the related (but different) canvas size or maybe crop? What is the distinction that decides if something is under the edit menu or elsewhere? Paintshop Pro (pre Corel) was the only one to get things right. In many image editing programs, you have to guess where the function you want to use is and hope the developers thought the same way. One of the reasons why I prefer nano the the behemoths that are Vi and EMACS is the discoverability of features. It goes to a sub folder three layers deep where I was last time.) I click on the top folder on the sidebar, and it does not show me the contents of said top folder. Just different enough that I loose orientation. Then there's the file explorer it has for "File Open" it has in it that behaves totally different (not even bad. Things like selection fields do not just show the options when I click on the little down arrow – I have to click AND HOLD, contrary to everywhere else on the system. Affinity Photo shows them context sensitive when needed.), and cannot remember that I turned it off (it remembers all other kinds of shit from last session. Things like that it shows layer boundaries by default (no other graphics program I use does. Each of these things are, by themselves, merely mild irritations. It's that there so many things it does slightly different than everything else. Re: Forget the geeky stuff, sort out the user experience. There are three options available in VSDC Video Editor: Reframing is an algorithm that allows for improving slow-mo videos with a low fps rate by creating additional frames. Keep reading to find out what it is and how it works. To fix this and achieve a perfectly smooth slow-motion video effect, you’ll need to resort to reframing. Going back to the gradient image metaphor, this is what it looks like: When you reduce the playback speed to 10% (which is 10 times slower than the original video), you reduce the number of frames displayed per second by a factor of 10. An average video plays consistently, without hiccups objects in the video move smoothly – just like the color transition in a gradient image: To help you visualize it, let’s take a gradient image as an example. The missing frames is what creates the stutter. And when you reduce the number of frames per second, you turn a video into stop-motion animation. When you do that, you technically reduce the number of frames per second – or the fps rate. Suppose you want to reduce the speed of video playback from 100% to 10% of the original speed. Why do slow-motion videos look choppy sometimes? Watch the video tutorial to see how reframing works, and learn more about it below. So, before getting started, we recommend downloading it from the official website. Luckily, the new version of VSDC Free Video Editor includes two powerful reframing modes: Blending and Optical flow. In this quick tutorial, we’ll explain why simply reducing the playback speed is not enough to achieve a slow motion effect, and how to go about it using a feature called reframing. See, when you drastically reduce the speed of your footage, the video starts looking choppy. For amateur creators, the most obvious way to achieve a slow motion video effect is by reducing playback speed.

"If you're dressing up for Halloween and you're making a skull, typically it would be scary," she says. Bautista says that La Catrina makeup is entirely separate from gory Halloween skull makeup. According to urban legend, La Catrina's roots come from Aztec death goddess Mictecacihuatl, who served to honor and protect those who have passed and to symbolize the relationship Mexicans have with death. The most common form of Day of the Dead makeup is La Catrina, a skeletal figure that's reminiscent of sugar skulls, a tasty and colorful skull-shaped treat made on this holiday. This content is not available due to your privacy preferences. Somebody would never think of honoring them by wearing scary makeup or a unicorn costume." It's about honoring anyone you love, and anybody who has had somebody passed away and wants to honor it. "Día de los Muertos is not about being scary or gory. "Halloween is a pagan holiday and the history is so much different than what Día de los Muertos is," she says. The scent is supposed to draw them back to their home."īautista also notes that this holiday really doesn't share anything relatable to Halloween other than the fact that there are skulls - they're not even on the same day. And we ‘invite’ them back by lighting candles in their honor and bringing around marigolds. And we do it in celebration of them, telling stories and sharing music and food, and just memories and creating altars with pictures. It's a tradition to honor our ancestors to celebrate everybody who's passed on to the next realm. "It was celebrated originally by the Aztecs and the Mayans. "It's a tradition that's been going on for over 3,000 years," says Bautista. It's a holiday that dates back thousands of years in Mexican culture, and which is reserved for celebrating the lives of loved ones who passed away. Contrary to popular belief, Day of the Dead is an entirely separate holiday from Halloween. Since 1982, PCMag has tested and rated thousands of products to help you make better buying decisions. The omission of certain advanced features, most notably endpoint detection and response (EDR), leaves Protect Complete trailing behind our current Editor's Choice winners: Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra, F-Secure Elements, and Sophos X Intercept Endpoint Protection. ESET has continued to improve its offerings, but it hasn't done enough relative to its competitors to place it at the top of the heap of cloud-based endpoint protection services.
