My profile try. Just experimenting in Photoshop. Started with high pass, curves, gradient map. Duped image and moved on copied layers with reduced opacities for dupe profiles. Finished with halftone filter.
Freaky, don't you think?

MargaretM | I think the results of your experiments is thought provoking -- moody, if you will. Your approach was very unique when compared to all the others that preceded it.
Unique is a good thing. Well done. |

| Thank you Danny.
I went back through all the different renditions to find a favorite, but could not fix on one - I liked them all so well. Great variations.
