A Wintry Walk

Had some fun 'seeing to' this image, processing in Lightroom, then Topaz Impression, then Topaz Textures, then back to Lightroom. I wanted to take a miserable wet walk experience and make it into something else.

You did very well, it looks stunning.

[Pam Knowler]

Wonderful processing Taffy! This looks such a pretty image now! What a shame the weather has spoiled your photo plans with Andie. I love the way we are able to use these textures etc to give life to an image - such fun!

cool editing

[Issi Bannerman]

I have to say, it doesn't look at all miserable! You've been successful in your aim! It's beautiful on black.

[Lynda McG]

Nicely done - fav

[Beryl Lloyd]

Brrrrr !!

[Casablanca]

That looks like a warm smile coming towards you through the cold though! Looks like a heap of fairies following behind.

[Babs]

You have turned what could be quite a spooky image into something quite magical.

Nothing miserable about this, mission accomplished !

[Kathie]

Wonder if the walker felt the magic of this stroll.

[Joan Robillard]

I like Topaz Studio because I don';t have to go in and out of the various programs./

[KWind]

Great editing! I like the light bursts!

[Tom]

Great processing, and light bursts, reflections, and the mystery of the approaching stranger

[Rosie Kerr]

Love those light bursts... you made visual lemonade out of a real-life lemon. :)

[Taffy]

@rosiekerr LOVE that metaphor! Thanks for the visit!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Looks like you accomplished your goal and then some- it's now a lovely painting that could be hung over the mantle.
