TGIF everyone.

This morning I reprocessed a very old image; the original photo was taken more than 20 years ago from the Bolsa Chica Wetlands and across PCH towards the setting sun. Then I decided to simulate a painting in oils or acrylics.

Today's reprocessing involved a new crop and tweaking the values to bring a hint of detail into the darks.

   

I wish all a pleasant, safe, and productive weekend.

Nicely done Dave - Kind of looks like a water color abstract with bold colors.

[Dave]

Thanks Don.

I was indeed going for a semi-abstract artistic look, and am pleased that came through.

[Rich]

Yes, definitely an abstract look! I agree the darks needed a little detail.

[Man From Ironbark]

The texture gives it more of a 3D look enhancing the abstract.

Thanks Rich & MFI.
