PS: Lonnie , I thought I would add that I hated mucking up the pixels... those pictures did not need any improvements... they are great as they are!

Re: Greetseil

Thanks Lonnie, enjoying all the versions. For the town scene, I played a bit with the focal point and depth of field, then used Impressionist for a paint effect. The harbor scene same as, except painted the sky coarsely, painted the remainder finely, then an overall Impressionist paint effect.

Re: Greetseil

Lovely pics, Lonnie, thank your cousin for sharing and thanks to you for thinking of us

There are lots of very nice works in here, mine seems a little pale especially in comparison to the last two
