Therefore, to find the plugin, go to File -> Automate -> Topaz Gigapixel AI and a similar screen will open as shown in the screenshot above. To do this same thing from Photoshop, you will not find the Topaz Gigapixel AI in the Topaz Lab folder under Filters since changing the size is something that cannot be done as a filter. This is really a fabulous feature of Luminar. Then the various sliders could be adjusted to fit the sky to my image. The final post work in PS involved mainly adding Luminar 4 (for website link, see sidebar at my Tidbits Blog) to the image and adding a sky from a set by Karen Hutton called Heavenly Clouds-the Sunsets. It is still a small image so I could have used 4X. The image was doubled in size by selecting 2X. This does not have to be done and probably would not be checked in most cases. You can see that I let Gigapixel AI Auto detect the Suppress Noise and Remove Blur in the image – it seemed to help since nothing like this had been applied in Lightroom. Below is a Screenshot of what Gigapixel looked like for the above.

In this case, I used a tiff file with a -Edit added to the file name which was then taken into Photoshop after it came back into Lightroom. To go into Gigapixel, just right click on the image and select it in the list – it will ask what file format you want the image to be brought back into Lightroom. By zooming in so far into an image, you will probably see some chromatic aberration. Obviously, first it had to be cropped then in the Lens Correction Panel, checked Remove Chromatic Aberration and Enable Profile Correction. A couple things had to be done in Lightroom before opening it into Gigapixel AI. That is as close as I could get to the weather vane using this lens. This image was taken using Aperture Mode, an 18-200 mm lens set to 200 mm, ISO 200, 1/320 sec Shutter Speed at F/9.0. Below is the original that was cropped in tight. Besides getting more detail in the close up area, Gigapixel is also great for printing out smaller images. This Windsor Castle weather vane is an example of one of the images I tried using it on. I was pretty astonished how great it can be. I thought I would show you what I did after upgrading to this newest version. Recently Topaz (for website link, see sidebar at my Tidbits Blog) made their Gigapixel AI software available as a Lightroom and Photoshop plugin.
