Doing some further testing with Topaz plugins I have come across a repeatable and widespread issue with colour artefacts appearing in extreme highlight areas after an image has been processed with most of the Topaz suite of plugins. So far I have found the issue in Adjust, Clarity, Black and White, and Detail. I have the latest releases of all of these plugins.
I am attaching 3 files, the first showing the source image, the second the preview from Adjust, a the third the resulting image in Affinity. These are all crops from a larger image.
