One of the most challenging aspects of digital imaging is making corrections to specific parts of the photo. It could be a color saturation issue, or maybe the tone is off on a particular area of the shot. In Photoshop, this means making a mask and doing your correction work. Depending on the complexity of the image and what you’re trying to accomplish, this can be an easy task, or one that you spend hours on. Enter Viveza, a new plug-in from Nik Software. Viveza does one thing, and aims to do it very well – make it easy to work on specific areas of an image without worrying about selecting and masking chores. Viveza works with Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, and Apple Aperture, and uses the U-Point technology, first seen in Nikon Capture NX, to work its magic.
Viveza only does one thing, but it does it better than any tool I’ve ever used. If you spend a lot of time in Photoshop or Aperture editing your images, you’ll find Viveza will quickly become an integral part of your workflow, and it will repay the cost of purchase in no time at all.
Viveza is available at an academic discount price of $135.
