I recently purchased the newest add-on for Photoshop and Lightroom (also works with Aperture and other photo editing software) and have started to get familiar with this very nifty way to use the Topaz Suite of photo editing filters.
Basically, photoFXlab pulls all of the Topaz filters you own under one interface, dresses them up a bit, adds some new features and presents you with a seemingly unending list of options to enhance your images. Here's an example of a before and after on a photo I shot last fall in our backyard.

Beyond the basic cloning and spot healing to address blemishes on the flower, the main work was digital enhancements using Topaz filters and "recipes" in photoFXlab.
