Burano

Have fun playing.

Re: Burano

Yay! I've figured out the AHB. This is filter forge, details restored with the AHB using different blending modes

Re: Burano

Grant, thanks for sharing your lovely photo. And your arty version is wonderful.
Nasturtium - congratulations on wrestling the AHB into submission. Feels good, doesn't it? I like your result, too.

I did an oil version in DA Painter with a good bit of futzing in CS4 before and after.
