Yesterday i went for a nice day at Hollingworth Lake Lancashire with my boyfriend, I took a few pictures the weather and the lack of sunshine permitted.

Here is my favourite picture - Show me what your imagination can do with this picture...

Something different perhaps?

I took this photograph with my digital camera at 5pm Sunday afternoon.

Just a fun pic to work on. Exactly what I needed after a long day. Soothing and relaxing...let's go fishing.

And yes, for those of you who notice. I did mean to keep the leaves outside of the framed picture. :) Call it artistic license.

thanks :blush: :)

i used just photoshop, impressionist... i don't rem exactly now, but i think that the bottom layer was pencil sketch, top layer was conte faithful (?); i modified both to use fixed angle orientation of strokes, to keep the "horizontalness" of the photo :D
tweaked hue/sat of the top layer, and blend hardlight (?)


btw, i got my fishing rod ready, and worms are in the stand-by mode ;)

I made myself an email siggie from my photos.
really cute :nod:

just 2 things - i think that the top most piece of film should've those "holes" on sides transparent, and also on second look it looks a bit weird that in that one the photo is in "portrait" orientation, while in the other two in "landscape" orientation...

JC ~ i do hope your not going to put them in your mouth to keep them warm...
worms need to be kept warm? oh, well, i'll put them in my mouth if necessary, but someone has to keep an eye on me if i don't have irresistible urge to swallow :lmao: :dizzy:

Don't put them in your mouth full stop we shall get out of them rice warmers lol!

Tis way too bad you both live on another continent. Those worms will be mighty ripe by the time you get them here to fish JC. As for me, I think I'll use cheese or corn. Worms are SO messy. :)

Hi Legacy~Art,

I like this type of shot. It's very good for combining with other elements.

This is the window (Porthole?) of a replica sailing ship that came to town one day. I just cut it out and duplicated it.

Con thats unusual - I think if you had made it larger, so it looks like a wall and a pothole window, and the scenery being the picture i added, as right now it looks like its in limbo,. Do you see what i mean?

Hi Legacy Art,

I'm absolutely shattered that you're underwhelmed with my image. Please find attached another attempt to make you smile.

Hi Legacy~Art,

I'm still intrigued with your pictures possibilities.

I used a Polar coordinates setting on a Flexify filter. Cut out the result with a circular Marquee and applied an Inner Glow and Outer Glow effect using Layer Styles.
