| | | Nice impressionististic version, Neve. Here's mine:
BG
A: copy BG. Impressionist: WaterColor Spotty Brush on Rough Paper (modified from defaults)
B: copy BG - (dissolve ~50%)
C: MergeVis (A,B). ColorPencil. (Hardlight)
D: copy BG sketch layer (Multiply)
E: RenderClouds. repeat Impressionist (Darken) added a layer mask to clean up leakage outside the sky.
Now reduce opacity of layer B to about 20%
Enjoy. -Mark

| | | I travelled through parts of Montana when we came from Ontario to BC. Must have had my eyes closed, parts of the state is incredibly beautiful.
Duplicated and flipped vertical, skewed to roughly fit and changed to Soft Light.
Added a Velvia action.
Cheers

| | | Montana I ran a median filter over it, and then paint dabs, hue & sat. In Painter I used oil brush cloners, then back to PS to add texture (Wow) and a border that I had from one of my art pieces.
