Creative interpretations: Switzerland Village

[DannyRaphael]

I thought this photo of Eigemordwand, Switerland by Bauer was just stunning. Almost makes me want to leave my condo in Florida (83 degrees today) and to there. (Well maybe next year!)

Enjoy.

Christine:

Your recipe rendered a colorful interpretation. Well done.

I stole a good idea from Christine: zapping (cloning over) the power lines. They were distracting.

Then I applied the action available HERE. The sky looked too weak, so I added some texture, hoping to give it a little more character.

Next I duplicated the original layer, drug it to the top of the layer stack (but below the texture layer) and applied the Dry Brush filter. After adding a Hide All layer mask, I restored a little detail by airbrushing white on the layer mask.

Not enough snow for the first one so added some.
Then thought not smooth enough so did the second.

Thought about removing the overhead wires, but how would that electric trolley get there if I did that?

Couldn't quite decide how I wanted to go. I don't have much experience with snow so I have no idea how it "should" look.. LOL

Re: Creative interpretations: Switzerland Village

neat picture....
Switzerland is beautiful!
I liked the power lines because of the interesting perspective and it drew the eye to the lodge.

First I played with impressionist using hot swirl and some vincent variations using the separate channels as selections. That gave me the first, typical one. But then I wanted to make a very slight layer mask and i found the second one and really liked it.

Sweet scene. A watercolor wash with inked outlines.
