Last year I posted quite a few of my images of the UK Lakes, which went down well. Since the inception of this forum I thought it would be nice to subtly 'artify' some of these images.

Here's the first post:

I loved your original images Andy, but find this treatment just a touch too soft for my tastes - I keep peering for detail! 8) :D

I appreciate this isn't to everyone's taste, also a lot gets lost compressing down to 650 pixels wide.

At a larger resoultion it has a definite 'painting' appearance, which is what I'm trying to achieve. There's a lot of flexibility regarding what can be done - more to follow. :D

I think you will find its everyones cup of tea Andy. very nicely done. We do lose a bit as we resize but it still shows in this. The lighting and colours are beautiful to see. So you will have to tell us more about this software Andy :wink:

All the best in the UK and keep them coming :)

Thanks Danny. As with all software, it's about 90% done. Trouble is, the last 10% always takes as long as the previous 90% :roll: It'll be on my website once I'm happy it's ready.
