Btw which topaz lab is being used there?


Topaz Clean probably.

One can make mediocre smudge work look 'amazing' with 3 clicks, when using Topaz.

EDIT: don't get me wrong; it's a great plugin, when you don't overuse it!

how its made is a lot less important than the finished result.
Topaz has its place. Its just over-used.

I would personally erase the topaz layer over the tiger, other than that is really not that bad.

It is, and its really not fair on topaz. Its all about how its used.

e/ ive used topaz more than a few times to improve low quality stocks. Which it is very good at.
