I can't help it if nature makes art already Swampy!:)

Good ole Rosette Spoonbill.

Steve C.

enjoyed the film from what seems ages ago now !

Palms

Palms I love that! Great texture, and she looks like she's dancing in the rain :)

Wonderful picture Palms. I experimented with a few filters for mine. Could you tell me how you achieved that look on yours?

Thank you Gerry

For the spoonbill i used Reindeer's adaptive equalization ( most people dont have a problem getting onto the web page, but a couple of us do :bawling:)
then i made the background black ( tried white as well but didnt work )
as the feet didnt look to good, on a new layer I used the history brush at about 65% to bring back the puddle

Then used a light beam brush (obsidian dawn ).This is the bit that took me ages trying to get how i wanted it !

Palms, that is just GREAT !!! :bigthmb:

(Yep, still :bawling: )

Thanks for the info, Palms. I got the plugin from the website. However, it does not work for me. When I expanded the sit file the plugin was there but without an extension. I copied it to the plugins folder and started PS but i didn't see it. I thought it may need an extension so I added it (.plugin) and still nothing. As you can probably tell, I'm on a Mac. I wonder if it has to do with Leopard. I also went to the Obsidian Dawn website and downloaded a few brush sets to try out on another project.

here my version
this time I wanted to reproduce "Trimoon-style" (what I like very much) and created
a new background to be so near this style as possible..

I used Gimp :happy: on Linux

Thank you Ro
Gerry I cant get to the site to see if it is mac compatible sorry
You will enjoy the brushes ( ps7 and above) I have quite a few :blush:

Palms

Palms, there are two versions, one for the Mac and one for the PC. I downloaded the one for the Mac twice to see if it made a difference. It didn't. I'll have to write to the company to see what the problem is. Thanks.

Something different. Watercolor with a orange tint. Of course I had to flip it.
