I think it is "all that texture" that made me think of a paint by number kit. They never gave you enough paint to really cover the canvas. LOL

Not a really easy one to do, despite the appearances!
Here's mine, done mostly with smudging and an outline on soft light on top.

Hi Craig,
The Internet died on me yesterday while I was uploading the file, and then I forgot all about it!

May I ask which part you're passing on?
Sylvia

[Kraellin]

well, thankfully, the senility can not be passed on, so, i guess i'm talking about the plugins

Peter, my first reaction when I saw the thumbnail was WOW. When I opened it to the full size, it remained the same. WOW! Wonderful color and vibrancy.

Wow what a picture and what a response! Some great ones here! Just a quick rendition from me...

What can I say to that, but Wow myself Thank you Janet & Ziaphra.
I think I did this the night before my eye op, so I was doing anything but think about that. Sorry I can't remember the workflow, but would have been similar to other thing I've done. Thank you Palms for putting me onto Art history.
Some of the colouring would possibly come from Flaming Pears Zephyr plugin, I don't know exactly what it does, but it appears to look at existing colours in a pic and diffuse them out a bit, sometimes very pleasing sometimes over the top. This time it worked for me.

A combination of Watercolor, Dry Brush, Smudge. I also used curves to lower the contrast and lighten the highlights a bit.

Gerry...

I love the simplicity of your painting...nice colors too...

Patricia...

Thanks for the compliment, Patricia. I really enjoy these challenges. I started doing this with PE 2.0 four years ago when my Mother turned 100. It was a way to save some really old and precious pictures of my Grandparents and parents.

I'm not into people that much. I really love landscapes, flowers, beaches, Mountains, etc.

[Gary Richardson]

Nothing Arty, just thought I'd change the atmosphere by altering the sea and the lighting a touch.

Gerry...

What a great age...100 and a really good reason to enhance all the old family photos...I am also not into people photography...Flowers are my faves,followed by landscapes etc....Last summer i started with Macro and love the butterfly,dragon fly,bees wasps and anythig else that moves photos...I am really happy with the results...taken with my canon powershot...upgraded in September to a Rebel...so am looking forward to what i can produce with that...

Gary...Great enhancement...love how the sea shimmers!!!!

Patricia....
