Just about to head out on the 2nd day of the Garden Open Weekend fundraising for spca. Looooong day yesturday and think I must be bit tired. Have been sitting here this morning unprettying a flower in ps instead of getting ready!!
Original just resized
Added a couple of home made grunge layers (fungus on brick and dirty fishglass)and various filters.
Why did I do this you ask.......must be tired, made sense at the time!! LOL
Would love to see what you could make of this fairly bland pic of a daylily.
Gotta go now, sky is overcast and blaaaaaaaah! Another long day!

Decided to play a little bit...
1st, an attempt at normal processing, next, selective desat and overall desat, then a painting type filter for something different.

| Thanks Sue, here's how I did this.....Open your image press ctrl j, this gives you a layer, double click on this layer (1), go to Filter menu, choose Blur>Smart Blur, in the dialog, change the Quality setting to High and Mode to Edge Only. Move the Radius and Threshold settings for white lines outlining the image click OK. Ctl I to invert the image. Go to Filter menu, choose Blur>?Gaussian Blur. Blur to about 3 pixels, clicl OK. Go to Image menu > Adjustments > Threshold, in the dialog drag the slider to the right to make the lines thicker, Click OK Lower the Opacity of the top layer to let original background show through, try 50% opacity. Mess around with the blend mode to darken, soft light , linear dodge etc. and use different opacity %'s. BM |

Hope you are feeling less tired now and that plenty of funds were raised for spca. Can you tell me what "spca" is? |

Thanks for the link. It sounds like you've been very busy working for a very worthwhile cause. Well done - and congratulations on the funds you've raised. |
