Spring is in the air... :)

Get creative!

Sure wish that tree was not growing out of the top of this guy's head, but little messups like this happen sometimes when you're just grabbing a shot.

I have been in a BW rut of late. Getting ready to install CS3; look fwd to trying the CS3 convert to BW adjustment layer.

Thought I would play with my Peter Max filter (and a few other things of course). :)

This is my first real attempt at pst ( i have muddled along on one before ) And all thanks to Swampy and her tutorials

A second try by me on this one:
* Tree removed from his head
* Two layers of Impressionist plugin... #djrOil24 with default brush size, another with brush = 50%
* Hue/Saturation: Boosted saturation a lot
* Photoshop action for the frame
