This one was a rather ordinary picture I took of some houses on our street during the snow storm yesterday morning. I decided to crop it down to one single lamp post and the snowy sky. I cloned in just a few more snow flakes to add to the snowy effect and still thought it looked a little blank, so I added the text.

This is the perfect crop and treatment. The card is so elegant in its simplicity that it would be a favourite in any lineup.

I would buy this card out of a hundred on the postcard stand. I love the simplicity and the soft tones. Don't know about the blue cast... I actually like the warmth here.

No longer ordinary, this is a fine mood image.

The font is called Scriptina. I'm not sure where I got it. I think from a friend who does graphic design. I get all of my fonts from dafont.com I just checked and they do have scriptina for a free download.

I do like the border. The lamppost on it's own leads me to make up the rest of the story, which I like.

bear_music I tried the cooling filter it really added a lot. Thanks for the suggestion. I tried to replace the file with the new version but for some reason it wouldn't let me. So everyone will have to imagine what this would look like with a blue filter.

A very nice font. Maybe use a cooling filter to give this a hint of bluish cast?
