Hi Judy...

Always appreciate it when you stop in. I've been surfing your pBase gallery for the past 15 minutes. Your work is simply outstanding.

When are you going to produce your "how to" training DVD? Really.

Really ? I'm not into this type of thing normally, I mainly use the filters with photography. I did notice after I posted the image that the catch lights had disappeared from her eyes. I quite enjoyed doing it though, something new and interesting.

I had forgotten how to do this. It took a few tries and some serching for my notes, but I finally figured it out.
