Before

First of all Hello again and best of the New Year to you all! Been Playing around with Photoshop effects, and like the way you can create a painting look to your Images. I placed Two of my Stone Bridge, Paulinskill River, Warren County, N.J. Refection Image here. One original and one worked in Photoshop using the 'Artistic' Effect under Filter drop down and playing around with brush strokes. Interesting the contrast of before and after. Using my originals, I can create a digital photo Image into a piece of 'Desktop Art' using to tools Photoshop has to offer.
